Green Cotton Air Filters

The Green Cotton Air Filter company is Europe's largest manufacturer of premium cotton air filters. Green cotton air filters are used widely in the racing and motor sport industry; including use by the Peugeot and Citroen motor sport teams. The company has received the prestigious EAQF manufacturing standard.

Cotton is the best material for air filtration. Cotton is organic, so humidity, moisture, weather conditions and temperature do not affect it's performance. Neither will the harsh environment of the engine compartment affect it. By contrast foam, sponge and paper filters tend to absorb moisture and dirt, rather than hold them. When wet their filtration capabilities are handicapped.

Deep pleats in double layered cotton gauze of Green Cotton air filters ensure there is a 10-20% increase in surface area; enabling more air to be drawn into the car engine. The double layered cotton gauze is made up of a medium and fine layer to trap and hold dirt, dust and moisture particles as small as 5 microns diameter.

Green High Performance air filters are penetrated with a dirt-trapping oil. The oil creates a positive magnetic charge, or ionic bond, with the filter's stainless steel mesh. The positive charge attracts the negatively charged dust particles entering the filter, causing them to cling to the steel mesh and allowing the cotton to remain clear for maximum air flow.
