Filtration for the packaging industry

The packaging industry is a sector that focuses on efficiently and effectively packaging various products. At Interfilter, we understand the importance of filtration in the packaging industry and endorse the quality that must be involved. With our knowledge and expertise, we help you make the right choice to optimize your processes.

Why is filtration important in the packaging industry?

Filtration plays a vital role in the packaging industry for several reasons:

  • Air filtration: Clean air is essential in production environments to ensure the quality of packaged products. Filters remove dust and particles that can disrupt production processes and compromise hygiene.
  • Compressed air conditioning: Packaging machines and pneumatic systems require clean and dry compressed air to operate efficiently. Filtration reduces the risk of contaminants in compressed air systems.
  • Nitrogen generators: Inert gas, such as nitrogen, is often used to package products in an oxygen-free environment to extend shelf life. Filtration ensures the purity of the nitrogen gas used.
  • Compressed air filters and housings: These filters protect pneumatic equipment from contaminants and wear, improving the reliability of packaging machines.

Selecting Filters for the Packaging Industry

When selecting filters for the packaging industry, the following considerations are important:

  • Type of products: The type of products being packaged determines the requirements for air quality and nitrogen purity.
  • Production environment: Cleanrooms and production halls have different filtration needs depending on the required hygiene standards.
  • Budget and maintenance: Available budget and willingness to perform regular maintenance are important factors in selecting filtration systems.

  • Pharmaceutical packaging: When packaging pharmaceutical products, the purity of the ambient air is of utmost importance. Air filters ensure that the ambient air is free from particles and microorganisms that could affect the quality of the medicines.
  • Cosmetic packaging: In the cosmetic industry, air quality is crucial, especially when filling and packaging products such as creams and lotions. Filters provide a dust-free environment and prevent contamination.
  • Packaging machines: When using compressed air to power packaging machines, compressed air filtration is crucial. Filters remove moisture and particles to ensure smooth operation of the machines and prevent product contamination.

These example situations highlight the various applications of filtration in the packaging industry and how it contributes to the quality and reliability of packaging processes.
