Industrial Filtration

In the world today, protection of the air we breathe and of the environment in which we live and work is subject to ever-increasing scrutiny by economic, political and social groups.

An expanded polytetrafluorethylene (ePTFE) Membrane.
Tetratex® membranes are manufactured from 100% ePTFE Polymer resin.
They are chemically inert and thermally stable up to +280oC.
The filtration membranes exhibit on average more than 100 million pores per cm2.

Tetratex ePTFE membranes are thermally bonded onto a range of substrates including woven, spun bonded and needlefelt materials which are utilised in pulse jet, reverse air and cartridge type dust collectors and filter baghouses.

For pollution control devices employing fabric filter media, the best available control technology for the capture of fine and difficult particulate is recognized by industry experts as media utilizing ePTFE membranes.
