A 2-day conference and exhibition bringing together filtration experts, technical specialists and industry leaders along the supply chain, with a clear focus on technological and sustainability innovations, for instance driving media and filter performances or demonstrating their role in reducing emissions.

As the second-most-important aspect of the conference, the priceless network cultivated within the exhibition, the coffee breaks and cocktail evening will stay with you long after the event!

The 2022 FILTREX™ Innovation Award, the only award recognizing innovation in the filtration industry, was attributed by delegate’s vote to Oerlikon Nonwoven for their HycuTEC (inline charging technology).
Dr Ingo Mählmann, Vice President of Sales & Marketing, along with his colleague Ralph Berkemann, Senior Manager Application – both from Oerlikon Nonwoven – were on site to accept the prize. “This is really a great honour,” said Dr Mählmann on receiving the award. “We invested a lot of work in the development of this equipment to more efficiently produce filter media. So we are really proud as it was only released at the beginning of this year and it’s already being recognized by the industry.”
