Solid-Liquid Separation

Filter Press Cloths (PP / Non-Woven)

High-quality polypropylene and non-woven filter cloths engineered for reliable solid-liquid separation in filter presses across mining, chemical, ETP, and mineral processing industries.

Product Overview

Filter press cloths are the critical component in filter press operations, directly determining filtration efficiency, cycle time, cake moisture content, and overall productivity. Cleanex Chemicals supplies premium quality filter press cloths in polypropylene (PP) monofilament, PP multifilament, and non-woven synthetic fabric constructions, available in custom sizes to fit all standard and special filter press plate formats.

Our filter cloths are manufactured to precise micron ratings for targeted particle retention, ensuring clear filtrate and dry, easily dischargeable filter cakes. The chemically resistant polypropylene construction makes them suitable for acidic, alkaline, and solvent-bearing process streams that would deteriorate natural fibre cloths.

Custom Sizing Available: We supply filter cloths cut and sewn to exact dimensions for all plate sizes from 470 mm to 1500 mm, including ear hole, corner hole, and centre feed configurations.
