Harnesses the power of nature. Coir fibre filtration uses natural coconut husk fibres as a sustainable, biodegradable replacement for synthetic media like polypropylene in water and air purification systems.
A sustainable, natural coconut fibre filter medium designed for efficient air pre-filtration, available in G1–G4 performance grades. It effectively captures dust, overspray, and airborne particulates while maintaining low pressure drop for efficient airflow.
Free from synthetic polyester and fibre glass, it offers a natural filtration solution with no microplastic shedding helping businesses move towards more sustainable and environmentally responsible air filtration.
WHAT IS COIR FILTER MEDIA?
Coir wastewater filter media is a filtration medium made from natural coconut coir fibre, engineered into pads, rolls, cartridges, or loose random-pack modules. It captures suspended solids from sewage and effluent typically 94% of particles at 60 microns and is used as a natural replacement for synthetic polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) media in treatment systems.
COIR AIR PRE-FILTRATION
A natural coconut fibre filter medium for air pre-filtration, rated G1–G4 efficiency. Captures dust, overspray and particulates while offering low pressure drop and no microplastic shedding, replacing synthetic polyester and fibre glass pre-filters.
- Natural performance. Less environmental impact.
- Holds more solids before changing
- No Microplastic shedding
- Biodegrades naturally
- Effective and reliable Service life
- Less Environmental impact
Coir’s coarse, springy and irregular fibres create a dense, tangled maze of channels. Water passes through, but suspended solids collide with the fibre surfaces and get held. The rougher and more tortuous the path, the more the media captures.
These Coco mats are divided into filter class G2, G3 or G4 and new standard ISO 16890 namely ISO COARSE. Selected raw materials of natural origin.
These filters are a composite of natural rubber latex with coconut fiber or natural rubber latex, coconut fiber.
The filter mats can be cut and punched and the round filters are produced in many sizes. These filters are suitable for coarse filtration of dust as e.g. in air conditioning cabinets, industry, intake filter for engines etc.
Coconut fiber has a very high lignin content and is therefore very tough. Despite this toughness, it is also elastic. The fiber barely endures over time. To make the fiber resilient and allow it to create very open and ventilating structures, they spin the fibers into ropes. These ropes are turned into sheets and then sprayed with natural latex, sap from the rubber tree, to give structure and elasticity.
