EDANA, the leading global association serving the nonwovens and related industries, has launched a new automotive infographic filter media, as part of its study into durable nonwoven applications.
Nonwoven filter media provide a huge benefit for vehicles with their ability to deliver smaller, lighter, and more efficient filtration of cabin air, fuel, motor oil, and engine air. In addition, nonwoven filter media perform more effectively for a longer time, making every kilometre you drive more efficient.EDANA, the leading global association serving the nonwovens and related industries, has launched a new automotive infographic filter media, as part#
By using nonwoven filter media, each vehicle can deliver environmental benefits that are 6 times higher than the impact required to both produce and dispose of the products, making them an essential part of a modern, efficient and responsible automotive industry.
Pierre Wiertz, general manager of EDANA said, “Without high performance nonwovens, many recent innovations to make cars cleaner and more efficient would not have been possible. Thanks to nonwovens, today’s efficient motor technology means more fuel saved and less pollution, which in turn means cleaner air and better health for all people.”
With 13 million new cars registered in the European Union each year, nonwoven filters enable savings of 2.6 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents per year. This saving equals the reduction of 800,000 passenger cars on the road, or driving 12 billion kilometres in a medium-sized passenger car.
Nonwoven nanofibre filtration media offers benefits such as enhanced air quality, reduced energy cost, and longer service life. Nonwovens are ideal in filtration applications where strength of extremely high temperatures are required but other advantages of nonwovens include low cost, ease of strikethrough and increased efficiency.
