Johns Manville to show new products at Filtration event

October 19, 2015 - United States Of America

Johns Manville (JM), manufacturer of nonwovens from glass fibres, polyester, and polypropylene, is set to present innovative products at its booth number 327 at the Filtration Show in Chicago, Illinois, from November 18 to 19, 2015.

The company will display a polyester spunbond for air pollution control which is produced at the new JM BiCo spunbond line in Berlin, Germany. The cleanable filter media offers excellent mechanical strength and pleatability.

For HVAC applications, JM provides its micro glass air media with 100 per cent bio-soluble glass fibres that are harmless to health. The natural structure of the filter media allows a low pressure drop combined with a very high dust holding capacity. Furthermore, it enables purely mechanical filtration.

Bio-soluble glass micro fibres for HEPA/ULPA and ASHRAE air filtration is another product that will be shown. The very fine diameter of the micro fibres leads to high-filtration efficiency. The fibres are easily dispersible, providing improved density and tensile strength within filter papers.

Visitors looking for filtration media for food & beverage applications can rely on JM’s PP meltblown. The product provides precision calendaring delivering consistent filtration properties. A third party certification is available for high-purity filtration applications, according to a press release.

Johns Manville, a Berkshire Hathaway company, is a leading manufacturer and marketer of premium-quality building and specialty products. (GK)
