ID Group offers reticulated filter foams with versatile composition and a wide range of pores per inch (PPI) for custom applications. Our reticulated foams are available in sheets or die cut to meet your specifications.
Reticulated filter foams are ideal for a number of uses, including padding, flame retardation, fluid management, sound absorption, and filtration, among other uses. There are thousands of applications in a range of industries, including heating and ventilation, automotive, air conditioning, and even aquariums.
Our team can help you choose the right porosity or PPI and other characteristics for your needs.
Reticulated filter foams contain additives that are included during manufacturing. Depending on what’s added, they can take on numerous features, becoming more flame-retardant, durable, and anti-static.
Reticulated polyester foams: These foams have excellent filtration properties. They are perfect in applications where the filter comes in contact with gases such as carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen. Polyester foam has a consistent cell structure. It can be compressed into sheets of desired thickness and is durable and shock absorbent. When manufactured with additives, it can be flame retardant, anti-static, conductive, and even more.
Reticulated polyether foams: These foams offer excellent performances in moist environments due to their looser structure. They are often used for filtering air, liquid, and sound. Among other things, polyether foam has excellent water, moisture and mold resistance, superior solvency characteristics and strong resistance to degradation. This type of foam is perfect for applications such as humidifiers, medical devices, water purification systems, and more.
Whatever your application, our team of experts can help you choose the right reticulated filter foam. We offer standard products as well as custom solutions. If you need more information, fill out our Ask the Expert form online or contact us by phone at 613-699-0362.
ID Group offers reticulated filter foams from 10 up to 90 PPI. Lower PPI values mean larger pores and higher airflow, while higher PPIs have smaller pores, but can improve fine particle capture.
Our foams are ideal for harsh-environment air filters. Typical use cases include HVAC systems, outdoor enclosures, mass transportation, heavy-duty trucks, buses and off-highway equipment.
We can supply reticulated foams as sheets or die-cut to your specifications. We also offer custom cut solutions, including standard die cutting and laser die cutting, depending on tolerance and material choice.
Polyester foam works in higher temperatures than polyether, but both handle normal HVAC and equipment ranges without degrading.
