Cleanroom, pharma and laboratory air filters for life sciences applications
In the life sciences industry, the demands for cleanliness, hygiene, and safety are particularly high. To ensure top product quality, smooth processes, employee protection, and compliance with legal requirements, HVAC systems (heating, ventilation, air conditioning) in cleanrooms and laboratories must be equipped with highly efficient filters. Only powerful HEPA and molecular filters for cleanrooms, as well as specially designed pharmaceutical air filters, can effectively purify the air, significantly contributing to preventing contamination and maintaining superior air quality. The key challenge facing the life sciences sector is to achieve maximum clean air quality while simultaneously minimising total operating costs.
Modern laboratory, pharma and cleanroom filters for advanced life sciences solutions
MANN+HUMMEL offers a comprehensive portfolio of cleanroom, pharmaceutical, and laboratory filters and filtration systems.
We also provide smart digital filter solutions for holistic air quality and filter management, specifically developed to meet the rigorous demands of HVAC systems in the life sciences industry.
Our products are characterised by:
- Maximum filtration performance
- High energy efficiency
- Long service life
- Easy maintenance
Whether you need customised round filters for laboratories, highly effective vacuum filters, innovative molecular filters, or energy-efficient HEPA filters for cleanrooms, we have the right solution for every application. All raw materials are fully qualified according to ISO 846, VDI 6022, and EC 1935 standards. In the field of molecular filters, we offer certified products according to ISO 10121-3, the first classification system for molecular filters. Moreover, all of our HEPA filters are produced strictly in accordance with DIN EN 1822 and ISO 29463, and are supplied with individual scan test reports for maximum safety in laboratories and the pharmaceutical industry.
Our product range is comprised of three categories:
- Select: Filtration solutions providing excellent value for money
- Eco: Filtration solutions with optimum filtration performance and energy efficiency
- Pro: Filtration solutions with superior properties for specialised applications
Our product highlights at a glance:
All our HEPA filters are individually tested and supplied with a test report that guarantees localised efficiency at MPPS (Most Penetrating Particle Size) in accordance with DIN EN 1822 and ISO 29463, the latest standards for the manufacture and qualification of HEPA filters. Designed and engineered for minimal energy consumption at the required efficiency, these HEPA filters are available in both traditional glass fibre media and membrane forms.
For devices operating at high temperatures of up to 250°C – such as autoclaves and washing machines used for washing, rinsing, and sterilising components for cleanrooms – MANN+HUMMEL manufactures high-temperature-resistant HEPA filters. These robust, high-quality products ensure stable operational continuity thanks to their superior performance and reliability.
Molecular filters typically use activated carbon, impregnated media, chemical catalysts, and oxidizing agents to remove harmful gaseous pollutants from an air stream. Conventional particulate filters (e.g., HEPA or ULPA) can sometimes reach their limits when dealing with smaller airborne pollutants. To remove airborne molecular contamination (AMC) from the air, for example, specially designed molecular filters are required.
Our ECO product range for air handling units and HVAC systems in the pharmaceutical industry includes pre-filters and fine filters made with certified raw materials, a long service life, and exceptional air throughput – all while achieving the lowest total cost of ownership and earning A+ Eurovent energy ratings.
Our Nanoclass series (Nanoclass Square or Cube) offers a premium selection of HEPA filters in both standard and custom designs to meet the diverse needs of our life sciences customers. These filters are ideal as final filters in cleanrooms, as high-performance filters (police filters) for containment extraction applications, or as the final stage in ventilation units to protect HEPA end filters.
MANN+HUMMEL also provides high-quality terminal housings that enable seamless integration between HEPA end filters and terminal housings. The Nanoclass RTM Select, for instance, is a renowned product with a proven design, suitable for all cleanroom classes from E to B.
