Purification and Protection - How innovative solutions are making filtration more sustainable
There is a growing global demand for safe and healthy indoor environments, from homes to workplaces and vehicles. That means protection against contaminants – such as particles, bacteria, viruses, and chemicals – both in the air we breathe and the liquids we rely on. We explore the main aspects of sustainability arising throughout the filtration life cycle with examples of innovative specialty materials solutions, and discuss the power of sustainable filtration to support other industries in reducing their carbon footprints.
Ahlstrom FortiCell® LAB - Fiber-based solution for energy storage applications
Electrifying everything does not solve the climate crisis, but it is a great start. The transition to renewable energy still needs plenty of assistance with more sustainable materials. Contributing to a smoother transition, Ahlstrom offers FortiCell® LAB, which is a fiber-based solution specifically for Lead-Acid Batteries to enhance their lifetime and accelerate performance.
Supports the transition to renewable energy sources with Elektro-Tek® electrotechnical papers
Electrotechnical papers are designed as an ideal solution for demanding applications such as high-voltage cables, distribution transformers, instrument transformers, power transformers, and bushings. We offer a comprehensive range of innovative electrotechnical papers under Elektro-Tek®, made from sustainable materials, such as high-quality unbleached cellulose fibers.
