With Invenio, it is possible

“Sustainable development” is defined as a development capable of ensuring that the needs of the present are met without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Currently, filtration is not sustainable.

The raw materials used for this process are fossil-derived synthetic polymers; plastics such as polyethylene, polyester and polystyrene; silica or, in the case of glass fiber filters, other minerals.

As a result, the environmental impact of filtration is very high both during production and disposal, which generally involves sending spent filters to incinerators.

How to evaluate the performance of air filters

The performance of an air filter is evaluated by its filtering capacity and pressure drop.

In order to improve filtration efficiency, it is usually necessary to increase the thickness of the filter medium, with the result that the pressure drop increases and the air flow rate decreases.

To maintain the same air flow rate – for example, in general ventilation systems – it becomes essential to increase the power of the system and thus also its energy consumption.

Neatess^®: the cotton-based filter membrane for sustainable filtration

Just as in other sectors, only recently has the concept of environmental sustainability begun to make its way into the field of air filtration. Filter media made from recycled materials are now beginning to appear on the market, which is certainly a step in the right direction, but on the other hand cannot yet be considered a point of arrival. With the Neatess^® filter membrane, Invenio is finally offering truly sustainable filtration:

Cotton substrate: raw material of natural origin and 100% compostable
Nanofibre filter layer, very thin: reduction in the use of raw materials.
Low pressure drop: accompanied by excellent filtering efficiency.
Lower energy consumption: when Neatess^® filter membrane is used in ventilation systems.
Extended service life: compared to traditional filtration media.
