Cerdia® DE-Tow
The growing request for a faster biodegradable filter material makes Cerdia DE-Tow a titanium dioxide free Tow for new environmental requirements.
The faster biodegradability of Cerdia DE-Tow has been externally confirmed, repeatedly verified and officially certified by independent labs and certification bodies such as TÜV Austria.
Cerdia DE-Tow is biodegradable in soil, industrial compost, home compost, water and marine water.
The processability, filter design options, filter rod parameters and smoke chemistry of Cerdia® DE-Tow are equivalent to standard tow. No additional equipment or changes at rod makers required!
Cerdia® Coloured Tow
When a special appearance filter design is desired, customers can use our range of coloured filter tow
It is produced according to the same quality standards as Cerdia Filter Tow, but provides customers another level of differentiation for the manufacturing of coloured filters.
Cerdia® Hollow Fiber
Cerdia® Cellulose Acetate Hollow Fiber, produced from wood pulp, is a new renewable and biodegradable alternative to oil-based fibers such as polyester, polypropylene or polyamides.
The cellulose we use comes from certified and sustainable forests.
Its unique structure promotes an excellent mechanical anchorage of additives, liquids and particles.
Based on the high level of hollow area, nonwovens products produced with Cerdia® Cellulose Acetate Hollow Fiber will benefit from outstanding insulation and liquid absorption properties.
Cerdia® Cellulose Acetate Hollow Fiber technology is designed to deliver tremendous value to our customers across a broad range of industries and applications.
