European leader in FDA-compliant gaskets and validation components. Ensuring product purity and process integrity across the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries. Our screen gaskets are not used the same way as conventional filters, although they can be considered a filter. Conventional filters are built differently and have many layers to prevent particles to pass through, these can reach efficiencies of almost 100%. A particle comes in many different shapes.
For example, a hair has a diameter of Ø 0,1 mm but the length can be centimetres long. If the hair arrives perpendicular to the screen it might pass a 100 mesh screen. With a conventional filter, the second or third layer will prevent the hair to pass. Retention’s of standard screens are calculated according to international standards using perfectly round glass spheres. Our screens are only one layer and therefore they cannot be considered the same as a filter. Each screen gasket has a high-performance gasket made out of one of the validated compounds that we use for our standard Sanitary Gaskets range.

In many upstream and downstream processes, it is sometimes required to do an inline or in situ filtration step. It is usually meant to capture isolated particles created by moving parts in the system. Deterioration of valve membranes, pumps or gaskets can generate these kinds of particles.
In a start-up phase, it can be used to protect pumps from large items that accidentally fall in the system and are flushed through causing major damage.
Filling needles can be equipped with a fine filter down to 10µm to capture anything that should not be there before the vial is sealed.
