TOTAL PROTECTION AGAINST HEAT AND IGNITION*

A car’s air intake doesn’t just take in dust and pollutants. Engines can sometimes draw in glowing particles or sparks – and if the air filter material is flammable, the consequences can be devastating…​ 

FILTRON air filters are tested and proven to protect under pressure 

  • In a laboratory test, our air filter resisted ignition and did not transmit fire*, achieving Class F1 fire resistance.​ 
  • The equivalent competitor filter tested lacked self-extinguishing properties*, only achieving Class F3 and presenting a fire hazard. 

*Controlled M+H laboratory test of FILTRON AP 151/5 vs equivalent product from a competitor manufacturer. In flammability test FILTRON AP151/5 did not transmit fire, resisted ignition and achieved Class F1 fire resistance. ​ 

IMPREGNATED TO PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE AND PASSENGERS TO MINIMISE FIRE RISK

The filtration material is impregnated with a specialist treatment that resists flames and helps maintain structure and performance even in demanding conditions.

The same treatment also resists moisture penetration, preserving the filter’s performance and rigidity.
