Johns Manville Filtration, a division of Johns Manville's Engineered Products Group (EPG), announces the debut of an air filtration media with Self-Supporting Pleat technology called Assurance with SSP for residential HVAC, commercial and industrial applications.

Assurance is a nonwoven composite media made of natural and synthetic fibers, and is used to produce a superior mechanical air filter. The media also enables production of self-supporting air filters that reduce costs, increase manufacturing productivity and avoid safety liabilities associated with expanded-metal filter structures.

Used to produce MERV 6 to 8 filters, Assurance media with SSP delivers low pressure drop and consistent mechanical filtration efficiency. This enables production of more efficient, higher value mechanical air filter products.
•A new multi-fiber composite, nonwoven air filter material, Assurance media is strong and made of natural and synthetic fibers
•Offered in customized roll lengths and widths, Assurance media delivers mechanical filtration efficiencies and low pressure drop, providing consistent performance throughout the life of the filter
•Manufacturers taking advantage of the proprietary Self-Supporting Pleat technology will find that producing a pleated filter with Assurance media alleviates manufacturing and consumer-safety incidents associated with disposal and handling of sharp, expanded-metal filter structures

“Our customers have identified that using expanded metal to support the filtration media is a significant and volatile cost and it poses a huge potential liability for them in a number of ways; we've addressed these needs,” said J.P. Blanchard, Johns Manville filtration business manager.
