SUSTAINABILITY AT ITS CORE

SEFAR IS PROPELLING A MORE SUSTAINABLE MINERAL PROCESSING INDUSTRY, DELIVERING FILTRATION MEDIA THAT STANDS THE TEST OF TIME.

- 

Enabling the separation of solids from liquids, filtration media is a critical component of mineral processing and must be carefully chosen to ensure operators meet their desired environmental objectives and adhere to regulatory standards.

Sefar, a global pioneer in filtration media, combines extensive application expertise with a leading fabric portfolio to deliver environmentally friendly filtration solutions without compromising performance.

Sefar minimises its environmental impact through a variety of initiatives, one of which includes the development of bio-sourced polymers for the production of filtration media. This is part of Sefar's broader strategy to ensure that every aspect of its products, from creation to end-of-life, is designed with sustainability in mind.

From the selection of yarn to weaving, finishing, and fabricating the final filtration product, Sefar ensures premium product quality alongside a commitment to environmental responsibility. The company has complete traceability of all critical components, which is essential for certifying product performance and reliability.

Sustainable fabrics

Sefar's journey into sustainable fabrics began around 20 years ago with the introduction of products made from biobased polymers. The yarn developed for these products was sourced from recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate) from various sources. This choice was strategic, with the smaller-diameter yarn used in components facilitating easier fabric development.
