Filtration - Pure and Clear Solutions

In one of the most dynamic sectors for nonwovens, their infinitely adaptable characteristics as filter media see them employed in critical filtration functions. Whether it is removing viruses and bacteria to provide potable water or performing a valuable role in blood dialysis, nonwovens are often an indispensable part of the solution.
