About Materials for Medical Filtration

From providing components for medical filtration to using polyurethanes, polymers and blends for a diverse array of medical applications, SWM can serve as your single-source solutions provider for medical application design requirements.

Delnet™ Aperature Film is a lightweight mesh, uniquely extruded, embossed and oriented using high density polyethylene (HDPE), or co-extruded with lower melt resins. It can be used for filtration applications in medical devices.

SWM specializes in medical filter media for facemasks, and we produce medias with excellent breathability ratings without sacrificing BFE performance or blood strike through performance. We offer a variety of Delpore meltblowns available in different polymers including: PP, PBT, and PA. We have the capability of adding additives to reinforce or encapsulate the meltblown media, in order to enhance performance. Most of our meltblown grades can be custom tailored to achieve the mean pore, BFE and resistance ratings needed.

Our Delpore™ Electrostatic Media (formerly Alphastar) captures a wide assortment of dust, pollen and contaminated air particles. Because the triboelectric material has both positive and negative charge, it attracts air particles which increase filtration efficiency. Delpore has commonly be used for filtration for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) units and other medical equipment. Air filters are vital components in keeping a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) unit running safely and without introducing pathogens into the airway.

Extruded Square Netting In Filtration

Mono-planar netting, commonly known as square netting, is used to add integrity to media as a pleat support, or as a pre-filter in normal flow applications. Square netting excels in separation, protection, and reinforcement functionalities and it can also help reduce bio-fouling and dead spots that concentrate bio-material residue.

Extruded Cylinder Tubes in Filtration

Our Conwed™ rigid tube and Naltex™ extruded cylinder tubes are commonly used to protect delicate filtration media due to their strength and rigidity. They are used in outer shields as a core protection in wound or pleated elements. SWM offers an entire portfolio of materials for the filtration industry with distinctive customization capabilities.

Delnet™ Apertured Films for Filtration Applications

Our Delnet™ apertured films provide support across several air and liquid filtration applications such as microelectronics, dust release layers, and cartridge pleated filter support products. They typically help support and separate delicate media, while offering controlled porosity that enhances even, turbulent flow in tight pleat packs while improving filter efficiency.
