Fibrotex™ is a range of compact, fully automatic, self-cleaning fibrous depth filtration systems, designed to eliminate or reduce particulates in aqueous feed streams. They are used either before a process or before discharge from a process.

Fibrotex™ can use water from boreholes, rivers and canals, minimising the consumption of mains water.

The filters are based on a unique, yet, proven technology, and use advanced materials and construction techniques to provide effective, compact and reliable filtration solutions.
