Enhance the performance of disc filters 

No matter if in stock preparation, recycled fiber process, mechanical or chemical pulping, Valmet Disc Filter Bags and Coverings play a key role in increasing filter capacity and reaching high pulping consistency. Valmet’s disc filter fabrics provide the perfect fit, easy installations and long lifetime for highly reliable operation even in the most demanding applications.

Shrink fabrics for bleach and brown stock washer drums

Valmet Shrink Fabrics have an exeptional high shrink force, a low profile and a very strong woven loop seam. All these features contribute to a long fabric lifetime. The fabrics have a unique satin weave with a dense cake side and open drum side providing good clarity of the filtrate and a high dry content. 

Heavy duty wires for heavy duty challenges

Valmet has a comprehensive offering of wires and belts for double wire presses, belt dryers and Chemiwashers. Our dewatering wires offer a trouble-free start-up, long lifetime thanks to excellent stability and wear-resistant designs, optimum drainage and operational reliability. Valmet Dryer Belts for belt dryers, in turn, ensure that the end material is highly dry, as well as easy to maintain and handle. Energy and maintenance savings can clearly be recognized.
