Expanded FreciousPlus cabin air filter range for trucks and buses

Innovative filter binds allergens, preventing growth of bacteria and mould by over 98 per cent

Expanded FreciousPlus cabin air filter range for trucks and buses
Almost 100 per cent of the tiniest particulate matter in the PM2.5 range is removed.

To ensure that drivers can breathe freely at their workplace, filtration specialist MANN+HUMMEL launched the innovative FreciousPlus cabin air filter, which is now also available for commercial vehicles, under its MANN-FILTER product brand.

This binds allergy-triggering substances, so-called allergens, and prevents bacteria and mould from reaching the driver through the ventilation system.

In the independent automotive aftermarket, the new cabin air filter is available in the customary OE quality for 2.4 million trucks in Europe, including, for example, the MANN-FILTER FP 32 001 for the Mercedes-Benz Actros and the FP 4795 for most MAN commercial vehicles.

The MANN-FILTER FP 50 001, for example, is available for buses featuring Spheros REVO roof air conditioning systems.

Innovative filter formula

The new filter offers protection against allergens, bacteria, mould and particulate matter
Contaminated air in the vehicle interior represents a high risk for professional drivers.

Not only allergic reactions, but also tiredness and impaired concentration, which increase the risk of accidents, can be the consequences.

According to a new World Health Organization (WHO) survey, more than 90 per cent of people worldwide suffer from poor air quality, whether they live in cities or rural areas.

Furthermore, the WHO warns that allergies are a serious health hazard that must be taken seriously. Europe-wide, some 60 million people are affected by allergies.

In commercial vehicles as well, allergic reactions due to pollen, bacteria and mould are on the increase among susceptible professional drivers.

Three layers of protection

The FreciousPlus cabin air filter from MANN-FILTER improves the air quality thanks to three different layers.

In addition to coarse particles such as dust and tyre abrasion, its particle filter layer eliminates harmful particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters of under 2.5 micrometers (PM2.5).

These tiny particles are approximately 70 times smaller than the width of a human hair and can penetrate deep into the lungs. The second layer contains activated carbon, which is derived from coconut shell.

This virtually completely adsorbs unpleasant odours and harmful gases such as nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide and ozone from the airflow.

The third layer, an innovative biofunctional special coating, has both an anti-allergenic and anti-microbial effect.

Their anti-allergenic function contains a new filter layer through a naturally-sourced polyphenol coating.

Polyphenols occur naturally in many plants such as e.g. green tea, pomegranate and citrus fruits, and are able to bind allergens, rendering them harmless.

The MANN-FILTER FreciousPlus can be easily recognised by the yellow colouring of the polyphenol coating.
