Clean room filters from Pune
The filter systems required are supplied in India by Freudenberg Filtration Technologies. At
its plant in Pune, the company produces multi-stage air filter systems which provide
protection not only against dust particles but also against bacteria and viruses. The
principle is simple and effective. Filter stages that are adapted to each other remove
particles ranging from coarse to very fine. In a final stage, suspended material filters, highly
efficient in arresting fine particles, and made from fiber-glass paper, are used. An important
use case for these filter systems are hospitals. Freudenberg filters play a valuable role in
preventing wound infections in operating theaters and in keeping instruments germ-free.
Highly-efficient filters are also used in isolation rooms to reduce the risk of infection.
Giving the patient a good feeling
Since 2014, an Indian company has purchased a nonwoven material from Freudenberg for
use as a coating for stoma bags needed by patients with colostomies and urinary stomas
(artificial openings). The material is very soft, is gentle to the skin and can be worn directly
on the patients body. In addition, the nonwoven is completely silent in its application, which
means that people can wear their stoma bags largely unnoticed.
Medical technology has played a special role within the Freudenberg Group since 1957.
Innovations such as biodegradable wound dressings, systems for the real-time monitoring
of lung function and micro-implants make life easier for patients and physicians throughout
the world.
