Foam Conversion manufacture technical foam filter media products for all types of fluid and gas filtration. These include water filters, oil filters and gas filters including filters for air purification and dust control.
Polyurethane (PUR) foam with either a polyether or polyester polyol go through a special process called reticulation to produce a completely open cell foam with a very controlled cell structure, high ageing stability and high ozone and oxygen resistance making them ideal for use in a wide range of filtration applications.
Foam Conversion also supply filtering media, that is not foam-based, such as organic and non-organic porous materials including paper-based filters and wadding filter materials that are often used in conjunction with foam-based filters.
In addition to fabricating specialist aquatic filters (please see aquatic filtration for more details), Foam Conversion also manufacture and supply industrial and technical foam filter media for a wide range of applications to clients worldwide. Some of the more common applications for foam filtering media include:
•Air intake and exhaust filters
•Pre-filters for air conditioning units
•Medical foam filters
•Motorcycle filters (especially where high levels of dust are present)
•Oil foam filters
•Mist eliminators
Polyester foams can be supplied in fire retardant (FR) grades that meet FMVSS 302 low flammability standard and UL 900 low smoke emission standards. Please contact us if you require a low flammability or low smoke filter material.
Reticulated filter foam can be post-treated to meet customer criteria or additional specifications by using specialist spray or emersion techniques. Examples may be post-treated activated carbon filters for water purification, or grease extraction filters for industrial and manufacturing processes.
Foam Conversion can supply filtration foams in block, sheet, cut-to-size and machined. With over 2000ft² of reticulated poyether and polyester foams in stock we are able to supply both low and high volumes with short lead times, and ship globally from our manufacturing facility in Bedfordshire UK.
