Process and sterile filtration
Compressed air and gas filters for process and sterile filtration
Compressed air and gas filters are crucial for ensuring purity in processes and product safety—especially in sensitive industries such as the food industry. Our filter solutions support the protection of your processes and products against microbial contamination and other impurities.
Product safety with effective compressed air and gas filtration
Compressed air and gas filters reliably remove particles, microorganisms, and contaminants from the air and gas supply to ensure purity in sensitive process steps. In food and beverage production, they are often used in tank ventilation and in sterile process sections. In filling plants in the beverage industry, gas filters are used, for example, to filter nitrogen in order to inert bottles and products under sterile conditions and seal them securely.
Hengst Filtration offers various filter types for compressed air and gas, including sterile filters and industrial filters. The selection is based on the respective process requirements.
