MANN+HUMMEL launches first FSC certified air filter

May 28, 2014 - German filtration expert MANN+HUMMEL announced today that its facilities in Markcorffin, Germany and Laval, France have passed FSC certification with certification numbers FSC-C118474 and FSC-C119780. Through this professional chain of custody certification, the two plants can produce certified filtration products with FSC labels. In cooperation with the car manufacturer Renault, MANN+HUMMEL has produced the first FSC-certified air filter cartridge. The product will be provided to the original manufacturer of the parts and provide services for original parts suppliers. At the same time, this certified product has also landed on the Chinese market along with the supporting vehicles.

Mr. Marcel Hofmeister, marketing champion of MANN+HUMMEL Engine Air Filters, is in charge of the strategic adjustment of the global air filter. He said: "FSC certification means that we will use FSC-certified tree cellulose, strictly following environmental and social norms. We have always been committed to fulfilling our corporate social responsibilities, especially in the sustainable management of our Earth resources. We are very clear about our responsibilities."

Various filters are used in systems and products for air filters, fuel filters, and oil filters. In the field of air cleaners, most air filter media consist of cellulosic fibers or hybrid media containing cellulosic fibers. These filters have been verified in practice for millions of times. MANN+HUMMEL continues to develop filter media in cooperation with filter media manufacturers, following the latest technological trends. These cellulose fibers come from the wood industry and, like the similar products in the paper industry, must be extracted from fresh wood. With FSC certification, MANN+HUMMEL can ensure that the fiber used in the filter product is of reliable origin and that the wood used is derived from sustainable forest resources.

FSC is an independent non-governmental organization in Bonn, Germany, dedicated to improving global forest management. To achieve this goal, FSC develops, supports and promotes international, national and regional forest management standards. FSC standards not only take into account environmental factors, but also ensure that social conditions such as occupational safety are improved. Chain of custody certification means that the entire process from the forest to the consumer is in compliance with FSC requirements and regulations, providing consumers with greater transparency.

Under the Chain of Custody certification, MANN+HUMMEL can ensure that FSC-certified filter media and related raw materials comply with strict sustainable forest management regulations. FSC certification is transparent. Consumers can inquire about certified companies, and can verify their validity by using FSC labels under the FSC website.

Using experience gained in previous projects, MANN+HUMMEL plans to produce more filter elements with the FSC logo. Not only that, MANN+HUMMEL will also use FSC-certified air filter cartridges in air filtration systems.
