Bioactive Silver Technology

Silver Particles Against Biofouling — Patent Pending

Our Bioactive filter cloth (5 µm, 100% polyester) carries silver particles directly within the microfiber structure. They inhibit microbial growth in the weave and reduce biofouling — with no added chemicals.

  • Less biofilm formation in the filter weave
  • More stable filtration performance over service life
  • Reduced cleaning effort in operation
