BWF Envirotec filtration technology
In the steel and metal industry, reliably reducing emissions is a key focus of filtration technology. Each production process presents specific requirements for filter materials and industrial filters.
High filter surface loads or various harmful gas components are just some of the requirements for the filtration environment that play a crucial role in filtration technology. At BWF Envirotec, we design industrial filters for every filtration technology application that is precisely tailored to your needs. Our industrial filters stand out due to their excellent filtration properties and long service life.
Our best filters for the steel and metal industry.
Needlona ® (a filter specially developed from needle felt filter material) and the PM-Tec ® industrial filter (an industrial ePTFE membrane filter made from needle felt or fiberglass for fine dust filtration) provide optimal filtration results in terms of abrasion resistance, protection against sparks and frequently self-igniting dust, hydrolysis resistance, and fine dust separation.
Our industrial filters are used in the production of zinc, steel, aluminum, lead, and copper.
Our application technology engineers provide high-efficiency and optimal solutions for filtration technology. We aim to help customers set standards and achieve high performance goals. To achieve this objective, we offer a comprehensive range of services including installation, operation, maintenance, and repair, as well as optimization of the filtration system.
