Alkegen announced it will be launching three new High Efficiency Filtration (HEF) products during its exhibition at the upcoming World Filtration Congress in San Diego, CA. These are the first new filtration products launched under the Alkegen brand name since the merger of Lydall and Unifrax last October.
“This trio of HEF media – one for air, one for liquid, one for molecular applications – represents the first wave of advanced materials developed and released under our new Alkegen filtration product development team. These launches combine Lydall’s well-known filtration and manufacturing expertise with Unifrax’s proven, rapid innovation capabilities,” says Paul Vallis, president of the Filtration & Catalysis Group. “This is the first of many innovations we expect to deliver as our portfolio evolves to meet the continuous demand for ever-higher efficiency and reduced energy consumption.”
“With TriboStatiX, customers can expect high performance with longer service life,” says John Albert, global growth leader. “This means changing out filters less frequently for a more sustainable solution.”
“In addition to our expanded portfolio of available grades, our talented research and development team routinely customizes LyPore MB to meet specific customer needs,” says Aaron Frost, growth leader.

TriboStatiX
Alkegen’s new air filtration media, TriboStatiX, is a MERV 13 high performance pleat media manufactured on a new best-in-class asset. The media provides lower initial resistance, reducing the amount of energy required in the HVAC unit and lowering overall operating costs. TriboStatiX improves indoor air quality through consistent filtration performance and high dirt holding capacity, providing longer service life and reduced energy demand.“With TriboStatiX, customers can expect high performance with longer service life,” says John Albert, global growth leader. “This means changing out filters less frequently for a more sustainable solution.”
LyPore MB
Alkegen’s new line of meltblown liquid filtration media, LyPore MB, is designed to meet the most critical application requirements, while providing high filtration efficiency, low-pressure drop and excellent dirt holding capacity. Available in Polypropylene and PBT, single layer or composite and calendered to meet the most complex liquid filtration challenges. Chosen for such applications as food and beverage and lube oil, incorporating Lypore MB into a filter design improves filtration efficiency and extends filter life resulting in a higher performing finished filter and lower total cost for the end user.“In addition to our expanded portfolio of available grades, our talented research and development team routinely customizes LyPore MB to meet specific customer needs,” says Aaron Frost, growth leader.
