Textile Filtration Media

Advanced woven and non-woven filter media engineered for maximum performance in solid-liquid and solid-gas separation.

R+F FilterElements is one of the few manufacturers in Europe that controls the entire textile filtration value chain — from raw polymer granulate to finished, application-ready filter media. This vertical integration allows us to optimize every parameter: yarn denier, weave pattern, surface treatment, and sealing technology. The result is filter media that consistently outperforms commodity products in retention efficiency, throughput, and service life.

Core Capabilities

Monofilament and multifilament weaving on state-of-the-art looms
Needlefelt and spunbond non-woven production
Calendar finishing for controlled pore size distribution
Surface treatments: singeing, calendering, PTFE lamination, anti-static finishing
CGR (Caulked, Grouted, Recessed) sealing systems for filter presses
Ultrasonic welding for sterile and contamination-free seams
Custom cut-to-size and made-to-measure production
In-house laboratory for air permeability, tensile strength, and retention testing
