BWF Envirotec filter technology
Filtration processes in the food and pharmaceutical industries are characterised by strict hygiene regulations and demanding requirements regarding electrostatic charges. Food processing plants and pharmaceutical filter technology plants must comply with local, national and international regulations. BWF Envirotec filter technology offers your efficient solutions for dissipating electrostatic discharges, abrasion resistance and high separation efficiency.
When processing food, the food safety of all components involved in the dedusting process is indispensable, especially when it comes to filter technology: It is the only way to ensure product purity in food production and processing.
