Cleanable Mesh Baskets For Paint Filtration
Filtration is an important unit operation in the paint industry which is employed to improve the quality of raw materials and final products. Manual filtration of paints can cause health and safety risks, spills and inconsistent results. Batch processing times are also increased significantly. We have worked with many paint companies to replace manual filtration processes with fully pressurised and contained filtration systems.
