SYNTHETIC POCKET FILTERS


Synthetic Pocket Filters – reliable base filtration for AHUs & HVAC systems

Synthetic pocket filters have long been the reliable standard for fine dust filtration in professional air handling units (AHUs) and HVAC systems. Their form-stable construction, fully synthetic filter media and solid dust holding capacity ensure consistent filtration performance across a wide range of buildings and applications.


Why synthetic pocket filters?

Synthetic pocket filters consist of multiple layers of synthetic fibre media, creating a robust and tear-resistant filter. This results in a filter that:
- Provides reliable fine dust filtration according to ISO 16890 (ePM10, ePM2.5)
- Maintains its shape even under high air velocities and fluctuating airflow
- Is fully synthetic & moisture-resistant – unlike traditional glass fibre media
- Offers solid dust holding capacity for stable performance throughout its lifetime
- Can function as a pre- or fine filter in single- or multi-stage filtration setups



Typical applications

- Office buildings and commercial facilities
- Schools, public buildings and healthcare environments
- Retail and commercial HVAC systems
- Technical rooms, server rooms and light industry
- Production and logistics areas
- AHUs with standard to medium airflow requirements



Benefits for installers & facility managers

- Wide applicability → suitable for nearly all standard AHU configurations
- Fully synthetic → safe, glass fibre–free handling
- Form-stable construction → consistent airflow & stable filtration
- Strong price–performance ratio → cost-effective base filtration
- Easy replacement → available in many common dimensions & pocket configurations

With f’air, you choose reliable base filters that provide stable fine dust filtration and form the backbone of many professional ventilation and HVAC systems.



Synthetic pocket filters compared with traditional glass fibre pocket filters

Synthetic pocket filters are, in many applications, a safer and more practical alternative to traditional glass fibre pocket filters. They deliver stable filtration performance, improved handling, moisture resistance and reduced risk of fibre shedding inside the HVAC system.


1. Improved safety & handling

Synthetic media contain no glass fibres, offering major advantages during installation, replacement and disposal.

This makes synthetic pocket filters particularly attractive for installation and service teams.


2. Form-stable & moisture-resistant

In humid or fluctuating environmental conditions, synthetic pocket filters retain their shape and performance more reliably than many glass fibre alternatives.



3. Stable base filtration & wide applicability

Synthetic pocket filters are highly suitable as base filters in a broad range of ventilation systems.



4. Cost-effective solution with predictable performance

For projects where cost–performance balance is important, synthetic pocket filters offer an excellent solution.



Comparison: synthetic vs. traditional glass fibre pocket filters

Property Synthetic pocket filter Glass fibre pocket filter
Handling & safety Glass fibre–free, safe to handle May release glass fibres
Moisture resistance Fully synthetic, moisture-resistant Depends on medium
Shape stability Stable under varying load May deform or tear
Application range Wide use as base or pre-filter Often used in older systems
Suitability for maintenance teams Safe & easy handling Requires additional caution



Conclusion:
For those seeking robust, glass fibre–free base filtration with reliable performance and a wide application range in AHUs and HVAC systems, synthetic pocket filters are a practical, cost-effective and future-proof choice.
