Request a quote by e-mail3 to 5 times more paint storage capacity than a fleece filter – fewer filter changes, less downtime.
3 to 5 times the filter capacity of a fleece filter. Separation efficiency is not a headline figure; the table shows the catalogue PDF value 99.21 % (HE) KUNDE: website image caption states 99.6 % (HE), manufacturer's catalogue 99.4 % (HE) / 99.7 % (HP) — define the value
The manufacturer of the filters is AEREM Industrie SA, Geneva (brand Andreae Filters, formerly Andreae Team). VISECO is the supplier/dealer. The text consistently presents VISECO as supplier, never as manufacturer. KUNDE: contractual status as Andreae/AEREM dealer (authorized? territory?) — determines whether "authorized dealer" may be stated
KUNDE: confirm product family assignment — the filter is not assigned to any home page family today; the concept proposes "Extraction & filters" (filters + small spray booth)

Solves your problem if …
- … you separate overspray dry in a spray booth, extraction wall or paint booth and your fleece filters clog too quickly.
- … you process solvent-based paints, high-solid paints or 2K polyester – there is a type recommendation for every paint type.
- … you process water-based paint: according to the manufacturer, the papers are moisture-treated. (Manufacturer FAQ andreaefilters.com) KUNDE: confirm water-based paint approval for the types supplied
- … your system runs at 0.25–1 m/s air speed at the filter.
- … you use filters in 75, 90 or 100 cm height as roll stock.
Not the right choice if …
- … you want to separate powder coating (dry arrestor for wet paint; dealer FAQ). KUNDE: confirm
- … you are looking for a secondary filter with a filter class (e.g. for supply air) – the Andreae filter is a pre-arrestor for paint mist. KUNDE: confirm whether a fleece secondary filter is supplied — the stock-clearance lot mentions "with fleece"
- … your system runs well above 1 m/s air speed.

How the Andreae filter works
VISECO supplies the accordion cardboard filters by Andreae Filters (manufacturer: AEREM Industrie SA, Geneva) in six versions as roll stock, 75 / 90 / 100 cm high. Dry separation by the settling chamber principle: the paint particles remain in dead ends outside the air flow, the filter does not clog at the surface.
The problem: Fleece filters catch paint particles at the surface. A layer forms there that clogs the filter long before its volume is full. Every change costs downtime, filters and disposal.
The solution: "The AEREM FILTER works according to a different principle: CENTRIFUGAL SEPARATION. As it passes through the filter, the air flow enriched with paint particles is repeatedly subjected to extreme changes in direction. Depending on their mass, the particles are ejected from the air stream." (The manufacturer calls the same principle "inertial separation".)
Two consequences: 1. No migration. "As soon as the paint particles have settled in the settling chamber, they are in a 'dead end' outside the air flow. This air flow can therefore neither entrain them nor cause them to 'migrate' through the filter." 2. High paint storage capacity. "The settling chambers allow the Aerem filter a filter capacity 3 to 5 times greater than a fleece filter. The path for the air flow remains clear even though the filter fills with particles. […] The Aerem filter, on the other hand, is only blocked when the settling chambers are completely clogged with paint."
Construction: two layers of perforated, folded and glued kraft cardboard with expansion limiter (The Original); the performance grades add polyester (HE), paper strips (HC), glass fibre mats (HH) or combine HC and HE (HP). The benefit: longer service life → lower costs → better quality.

Fire class, filter class and standard are not stated. KUNDE: fire behaviour/flame-retardant version, filter class, manufacturer documents — otherwise the block remains without a product certificate
ISO 9001:2015 (company VISECO)
DIN EN ISO 9001:2015, TÜV SÜD, reg. no. 12 100 34086 TMS, valid until 8 July 2029 (certificate dated 30 June 2026). This covers the TÜV logo in the catalogue PDF.
Regulatory context for the operator (not a certificate)
DGUV Information 209-046 (German accident insurance guidance) states for cardboard filters a change at the latest at "up to 25 kg" loading (manufacturer's figure); higher loading increases the fire load. Remove cardboard filters before hot work. Used filters with solvent residues are hazardous waste (EWC 08 01 11*); the manufacturer recommends drying filters before disposal.

Frequently asked questions about the Andreae filter
How often do I have to change the paint mist filter?
The change criterion is the pressure difference, not the calendar: the catalogue recommends changing at 128 Pa final pressure difference, possible up to 256 Pa. When new, the pressure difference is between 8 Pa (0.25 m/s) and 42 Pa (1 m/s) depending on the type. As a guide, DGUV Information 209-046 states a loading of up to 25 kg for cardboard filters – considerably more than for glass fibre fleece.
Which filter type suits which paint?
The catalogue gives comparative values for three paint types: with solvent-based paint, HC (13 kg/m²) and HP (16 kg/m²) lead in storage capacity, HE (97 %) and HP (97.2 %) in separation efficiency. With high solid and 2K polyester all values rise; HP reaches 29 kg/m² and 99.3 % there. Rule of thumb: a lot of material → HC, high separation efficiency → HE, both → HP, entry level → Starter or Original. Table in the technical data.
How high are separation efficiency and storage capacity?
According to the catalogue, separation efficiency up to 98.1 % (Original, Starter), 98.3 % (HC), 99 % (HH), 99.21 % (HE) and 99.3 % (HP); storage capacity up to 18–29 kg/m² depending on type and paint. Compared with fleece filters, VISECO states a filter capacity 3 to 5 times greater. KUNDE: website image caption states 99.6 % for HE — define the value
Is the Andreae filter suitable for water-based paint?
Yes, according to the manufacturer FAQ (andreaefilters.com) all papers are moisture-treated. KUNDE: confirm approval for the types supplied; temperature/humidity limits from the manufacturer if applicable
Which sizes are available, and how is the filter installed?
Roll stock in 75, 90 and 100 cm height with 8 to 10 m² usable area per roll. The accordion cardboard is pulled apart and tensioned in the filter wall; the expansion limiter prevents overstretching. KUNDE: roll length per type, pleat depth, installation with profiles/expansion band/clips — installation instructions
What is included in the stock clearance?
New filters in original packaging from stock clearance: 30 × EF111 Eco brown 100 cm, 60 × AF9338 HC white 90 cm with expansion band, 29 × AF741 HP brown 75 cm with expansion band and fleece – unit price €40, pallet negotiable. KUNDE: maintain remaining quantities
