Turkish roll goods specialist General Nonwovens will be a first-time exhibitor at EDANA’s Filtrex08 conference and exhibition, which is slated for next week, October 7-8 in Cologne, Germany. The company will be exhibiting its polypropylene and polyester spunbond nonwovens offered for the filtration market. “The reason we decided to attend this exhibition is the increasing demand for synthetic media,” remarked Alican Yilankirkan, business development director of General Nonwovens. “We have observed that synthetics are preferred over paper products.”

The company’s products are used as carrier media or as reinforcement layers. Under the FilterGen brand, General Nonwovens can produce nonwovens and composite filter media for the following filtration end uses: gas tribune filters, pleated panel filters, automotive cabin air filters, filter media for spas, oil and liquid filters, casting substrates for liquid filtration, support media for pleated filter cartridges using membranes, hydraulic oil filters, cartridges for heating and ventilating filters, technical and analytical filters, coolant and lubrication filters and dust collection filters.
