Camfil's range of filters offer food manufacturers peace of mind. They meet the strictest regulations in the food industry. Plus, they give you high energy efficiency and a lower total cost of ownership.
Food safety requires a team of dedicated people working to ensure what we eat and drink is safe. This team, following HACCP guidelines and principles, will inevitably identify hazards from the necessary airflow in a processing facility. Many of these hazards can be controlled through an analysis of the HVAC system which includes careful evaluation of the air filters.
Dust collectors safely handle exhaust air from food processing and packaging applications, therefore improving the IAQ, preventing cross-contamination and reducing the nuisance dust in the workplace.
Medium-care areas, where raw material is stored, need to be kept clean to protect against product contamination. These areas include changing/gowning areas, packaging, warehousing, and plant entrances.
In high-care areas, equipment needs to be protected and contamination minimized before products enter a high-hygiene area. High-care areas need high airflow and positive pressure environments. For ready-to-eat production, access corridors.
Low-care areas include areas where production and product handling do not occur. Camfil recommends products that adhere to EN 16798 to best protect the health of your building occupants. For office spaces, dispatch areas.
In high-hygiene areas, products requiring the highest hygiene levels undergo final processing and packaging. Here, you need the highest air quality to effectively eliminate all contamination hazards during production, cooking and packaging.
High air quality is crucial for product quality and safety in food and beverage production. The hygiene zones where the AHU operates should determine which AHU products are chosen.
Energy Cost Index (ECI) Star Rating System set the standards for air filter performance. The more stars means better air filter performance and higher energy savings. Get recognized for saving energy, shrinking waste, reducing carbon footprint and improving indoor air quality.

Commercial and public buildings Electronics and optics Food and beverageIt is common that meat processing factories are susceptible to the spread of airborne viruses and microbes. Temperature and humidity requirements along with the production processes lend to the survival of airborne microbes and viruses.
Processes in manufacturing facilities often generate dust and fumes which for example can pose health risks for your operators or compromise the quality and safety of your products. Determining the right capture and filtration solution helps to protect against the main risks of uncontrolled emissions and thus to create safe work environments.

The new Absolute VG HEPA air filter is all about making your life simpler, safer and more eco friendly. This is achieved by offering you filters that are extremely light-weight, robust and easy to handle. Filters that provide world-leading protection for your operations.
The food and beverage industry is affected by unique air quality challenges that can risk the health and safety of workers, production equipment along with a potential for contamination. Let’s look at how high-efficiency air filters can provide an effective and affordable solution.
Air is a vital ingredient in food and beverage production. Protecting your production process and final product has never been easier.
A Canadian-based provider of wholesale French- and Asian-style cakes and pastries that ship to restaurants and grocery stores throughout North America turned to Camfil when it needed a dust collector. The requirements for the dust collector included the ability to collect flour, sugar, baking, and dry mix dust from ingredients being dropped into mixers, augers, and bin dumpers.
A commercial bakery eliminates airborne pollutants and dust, improving safety, reducing downtime and lessening the risk of cross-contamination.
Some processes are more sensitive than others. If you work in the food and beverage or life science industries, you know how tough the demands on clean air are. To be sure you have the right filter, look for the ProSafe symbol.
