The Company is the only filter manufacturer that produces its own high efficiency paper media. All competing filters use aluminum, tape, glue, strips or strings to separate adjacent pleats of the media. These separating materials obstruct air flow and contribute to particle generation and off-gassing. The high quality and consistency of the Company's media enables them to construct pleats of completely self-separating media. We sell laminar flow grade HEPA filters and equipment to cleanroom contractors, as well as directly to end users, through its network of representatives.
Air filtration is the key to current cleanroom technology.
Cleanroom performance is, in part, determined by the number of filters in the room, and the grade of filter. Another major facet of cleanroom performance is the amount of laminarity for air flow in the room. If the air flows in straight, parallel paths throughout the cleanroom, the airflow is said to be laminar. The construction of the room, especially the ceiling and floor systems, is the most obvious factor affecting laminarity, but equally as important are two factors in the filter's construction. Uniform resistance of the filter media, and a large number of properly shaped parallel pleats.
