Enhancing Filtration Media with Advanced Binder and Fabric Finish Technologies

As global demand for cleaner environments grows, filtration media must meet increasingly stringent performance standards. At Synthomer, we don’t manufacture filtration media-we enable it. Our advanced binders and fabric finishes are engineered to strengthen nonwoven substrates, enhancing their durability, pleatability, and resistance to harsh conditions. Whether used in industrial air filters, cleanroom environments, offshore turbines, or datacentres, our technologies help filtration media deliver consistent performance, longer service life, and greater efficiency.

What we can offer​

Our portfolio of high-performance polymer binders and functional finishes supports filtration media manufacturers with:

These solutions are designed to integrate seamlessly into nonwoven production processes, helping customers meet global filtration standards while optimizing cost and performance.
