Air Filtration Products from Our Leading Brands

Baldwin Air Filtration

Baldwin Filters has been a leader in heavy-duty mobile air filtration for over 70 years, delivering clean, high-performance filtration that significantly extends engine life.

With over 2 200 air filter designs that exceed OEM standards and specifications, across all grades of application, Baldwin Filters is the preferred choice for industrial air filtration in agriculture, construction, and industrial and consumer applications.

Baldwin air filters offer enhanced contaminant removal and holding efficiency at every flow rating with minimum initial restriction. The result is an air filter that lasts longer, traps more contaminants, and extends engine life by thousands of kilometres.

Every Baldwin air filter is designed around an efficient balance of three important characteristics: maximum efficiency, minimum initial restriction, and cost-effective service life.

Baldwin air filters improve dust-holding capacity and air flow efficiency, separating and stabilising media pleats through two proven methods:

  • PermaPleat®: ensures uniform airflow through inter-pleat embossing which prevents bunching.
  • Beading: a continuous adhesive bead around the circumference of the filters metal wrap to lock pleat tips in place and prevent movement.

Channel Flow®

Designed for increasingly constricted engine compartments, the Channel Flow® filter delivers 2x the contaminant capacity of traditional air filters while occupying just 50% of the space. A honeycomb network of channels that maximises surface area without increasing installation space.

  • Fully enclosed frame prevents unfiltered air bypass & protects media during installation
  • Non-metal filter element is fully incinerable for more environmentally friendly disposal
  • Requires the same or less installation space than a traditional air filter

Radial Seal Air Filters

Featuring a heavy-duty urethane radial seal gasket and end cap, these high-performance air filters deliver exceptional durability that resists degradation under environmental and application stress. While PermaPleat® technology retains the integrity of the filtration media and 73% open metal wrapper surface area ensures minimal airflow restriction.

  • Flexible outer edges permit deflection for easier installation
  • Moulded ends, inner & outer metal wrappers provide structural strength & media protection
  • Metal wrappers protect filtration media while maintaining maximum airflow
  • Ideal high-performance aftermarket replacement across a wide range of applications

Extreme Performance Air Filters

Designed for high-dust environments, these air filters feature ProTura® nanofibres bonded to cellulose media – forming a lattice-like structure of submicron diameter fibres. These filters deliver unequalled contaminant removal efficiency, lower flow restriction, and extended replacement intervals compared to conventional air filters.

  • Greater engine protection through superior submicron filtration efficiency
  • Trapped contaminants are automatically ejected via application vibration & removed by the housing dust ejector
  • Self-cleaning contaminant ejection reduces maintenance requirements
  • Ideal for high-dust, high-demand operating environments

Fleetguard® Air Filtration

Fleetguard® supplies a range of mobile and industrial air filters that deliver maximum output with precise filtration for all types of engines in all operating environments.

As the only filter manufacturer that is also part of an engine manufacturer, Fleetguard® provides the very best in engine protection. Fleetguard® filtration products are developed alongside the development of each engine, testing capabilities in dozens of engine test cell and field trial environments around the world.

This approach delivers significant reductions in the ingestion of abrasive contaminants, while decreased restriction allows engines to operate at their preferred power rating more consistently – resulting in prolonged engine life and increased service intervals. Fleetguard® filtration offers dependability and reliability beyond OEM specifications, covering the widest scope of industrial air filtration applications across Africa and beyond.
