We are very proud to present you our new catalogue Medical Filtration Technology. Our program has been complemented by a variety of own new products. We can now offer you a complete product range for venting filters, breathing system filters and filter media for medical applications. Our experience of many years is the guarantee of high quality filter papers with properties tailored to different applications. Intensive Research and Development work in paper technology vouches for a continuous improvement of our filter paper to meet the requirements of tomorrow. As large portion of our...

Quality Management System We are doing our utmost to realize this ambition and will do all that is necessary to have products and services meet even the highest expectations. At the end of the day, our business depends on your success. Quality control already begins during development. At this stage already, our chemists and technicians maintain close contact with our customers in order to tailor the right product for a given application. Raw materials are the basis for a consistent paper quality. This is why stringent quality checks are carried out for incoming goods. During production,...

Invasive ventilation is used to assist or replace breathing when a person is unable to breathe adequately on their own. Additionally, in recent decades, Heat and Moisture Exchange (HME) devices have been employed increasingly for short-term use in anesthesia and long-term use in intensive care units. Our venting filter media are specifically developed for devices which are in common use in the treatment of patients with respiratory disorders. These filters offer protection by removing bacteria and viruses before they enter the patient's airway, bringing thus a crucial contribution in the...

The use of a hydrophobic media as a venting and respiratory filter is necessary to provide excellent barrier to airborne microbial contaminants. Ahlstrom-Munksjo microglass filter media are manufactured from an advanced blend of borosilicate microglass fibers and acrylic resins PFOA-free. Our concept is to manufacture media in all efficiency ranges of interest- efficiencies from 99.90 % to 99.9999 % for 0.3 pm particle size - especially designed for CPAP and mechanical venting filters. Only high purity borosilicate glass fibers are employed, in thicknesses ranging from 0.2 to 2.0 pm,...

Applications: Microfilter for supply air and venting filter for medical and pharmaceutical applications. Removal of particles and liquids (at low pressures) from air/gas supplies going to instruments that are sensitive to impurities /As MS-61 available with a length of 110 mm. Each filter is checked individually for retention.

Applications: Microfiltration of supply air/gas (e.g. in CO2 incubators and oxygenators) and venting filter in medicine and for pharmaceutics production. Each filter is checked individually for retention.

Applications: Microfiltration of volumes of up to 30 - 40 l/min for sterile and particle-free air or gases. Mainly used for cleaning exhaust air from suction devices. Each filter is checked individually for retention.

Each filter is checked individually for retention.

The filters with a pleated, hydrophobic mechanical filter membrane give the highest possible protection against contamination of the breathing system. Gard has such a mechanical membrane and is therefore very suitable. Bacstop and Bacstop Mini have an electrostatic filter membrane with a slightly lower filtration efficiency. Bacstop and Bacstop Mini will give sufficient protection during treatments that have low risks for contamination. The Gard models have several combinations of ISO connectors. The filters are available with a capnograph port. Bacstop Specification Bacstop Mini...

The combination of a filter and aHME in the same housing is the ultimate solution for efficient microbial protection and humidification. Combigard is a combination of the excellent mechanical filter with the effective HME. Bacstop/HME is suitable for the treatments with lower risk for contamination but still with an effective humidification. The Combigard models have several combinations of ISO connectors. The filters are available with a capnograph port. Bacstop Humni Specification

The HME inserts in the transparent housings are of 2 component micro-fibers and give a very low resistance. The resistance is low even after24 hours use. Together with an optimum moisture capacity it keeps the patient hydrated and the breathing system dry. The HMEs are available in a variety of sizes from Neogard for neonatal to HME Flex for adults.
