INDA Opens FiltXPO Awards

Categories include air filtration, liquid filtration and equipment innovation

INDA, the Association of the Nonwoven Fabrics Industry, in collaboration with International Filtration News, has officially opened nominations for the 2026 FiltXPO Innovation Awards. Filtration professionals are invited to submit their most innovative products—or those of their customers—for industry-wide recognition.

The FiltXPO Innovation Awards celebrate excellence in filtration by honoring products and technologies introduced since FiltXPO 2023. Submissions are now being accepted across three categories.

The award categories include air filtration innovation, liquid filtration innovation and equipment innovation.

All nominations must be submitted by July 27, 2026. Finalists will be selected by INDA’s Technical Advisory Board, with the top three entries in each category advancing to the final round. Winners will be determined through industry voting hosted on the International Filtration News website.

Award recipients will be announced live at FiltXPO 2026, taking place October 28–29, 2026, at the Minneapolis Convention Center in Minneapolis, MN.
