FILTECH 2013

FILTECH is the largest and most important special interest Event devoted entirely to filtration and separation technology. At FILTECH 2013 more than 300 Exhibitors will feature the latest innovations and up-to-date filtration and separation technology. FILTECH successfully extended its range and will also feature closely associated industries, among these are adhesive applications, cutting, stamping, welding and sewing innovations as well as plasma treatment and other innovative technologies. A major international Conference will be held alongside. Here you find a list of 2011/2013 Exhibitors showing the broad scope of the FILTECH Exhibition covering all aspects of filtration & separation.

FILTECH 2013 Congress will feature once again the latest advances and techniques in liquid/solid and gas/particle separation (dust, gas & air filtration) in 3 days of in depth exposure. Technology and know-how transfer is a main target.

The FILTECH Congress is a Must for all those concerned with designing, improving, purchasing, selling or researching F&S equipment and services. The Congress attracts presenters and an international audience from all over the world.
