Asymmetric membrane structure that meets your industrial filtration needs. Fujifilm’s AstroPore assures customers maintain their product’s quality with our high trapping performance, removing any particles or microorganisms in the production line. Our membrane filter cartridges satisfy the demands of a wide variety of customers from food and beverage industry to electronics industry.
Among various applications, one of the major contributions of Fujifilm’s micro filters has been their support for beer production in Japan. Traditionally, beer used to be heat-treated to prevent quality deterioration caused by living yeasts. In 1960s, however, breweries began to adopt micro filters for the filtration process of beer. This evolution in filtration technology made a huge impact on beer production, enabling breweries to remove yeasts by filtration instead of heat treatment, consequently giving birth to "draft beer". Since then, in step with the popularization of draft beer, micro filters became more common as one of the essential items for brewing draft beer. In particular, Fujifilm’s micro filters have been highly recognized for their quality and adopted by major beer breweries in Japan, holding a top-class market share today. So, in a certain sense, micro filters are the final gate guard protecting the safety and good taste of Japanese draft beer.
We support major beer companies as well as local craft beer breweries stabilize beer and maintain their flavor.
We offer 2 types of filter cartridges; final filter and pre filter.
Final filter, which removes bacteria and yeast, and pre filter which helps extend the life longevity of the final filter are both in our lineup.
Specifed cartridge, which pore size distribution is adjusted for food and beverage industry, such as beer breweries and wineries.
Standard type of nominal filter made of non-woven polypropylene fabric.
Our membrane filter cartridges are found in the production line of bottled water, providing the consumer with safe and clean water used in daily lives. Bottled water also acts as a vital emergency water supply in case of natural disasters or where water supply has been cut off or contaminated. Because water is consumed by a wide range of people, the filtration process acts as an important role in the removal of harmful organisms or any contaminants. Our highly efficient filters are chosen and trusted from major beverage companies, bottling companies and even the local water bottling manufacturers.
We also have air membrane cartridges (known as FLF cartridges) in our lineup, which are used as vent filtration, supplying sterile air in the stock tank.
Filter aimed for food and beverage for the removal of microorganisms and fine particles.
Standard type of nominal filter made of non-woven polypropylene fabric.
Hydrophobic PTFE membrane type. Ideal for air vent.
The production of sake is similar to those of beer or wine, however, it is much more complicated. Sake dregs, substance that is produced after fermentation needs to be removed in order to control the changes in color and flavor. Traditionally, cloth and active charcoal were used to remove sake dregs. With the development of filtration, they can now be replaced with membrane filters. Due to our reliable trapping performance and quality stabilization, our membrane filter cartridges are applied in many sake manufacturing companies that vary from major sake breweries to local breweries. Our filter also ensures to get rid of “hiochi bacteria”, a type of lactic acid bacteria that spoil sake.

Standard type of nominal filter made of non-woven polypropylene fabric.
Wines are beverages enjoyed across the world, each distinct in flavor. However, there are multiple factors that influence its taste, that vary from climate to soil types. Membrane filtration is a process which assists to maintain the strictly controlled environment until they are distributed to the consumers. Wine goes through filtration before bottling so that they can be packaged in a sterile environment. Growth of bacteria can ruin the delicate flavor or even the color of wine. We provide membrane filters that ensure microbial stability and the quality of wine.
Specified cartridge, which pore size distribution is adjusted for food and beverage industry, such as beer breweries and wineries.
Standard type of nominal filter made of non-woven polypropylene fabric.
Fujifilm’s air vent filters are applied in the process of making milk and yogurt that line up on your dining table every morning. There is constantly a flow of air in the storage tank that keeps milk in order to maintain the same pressure within the tank. This air needs to be sterile, eliminating any contaminants or airborne particles that can affect quality degradation. Our FLF filter support the manufacturers meet their hygiene management requirements.
Hydrophobic PTFE membrane type. Ideal for air vent.
Standard type that meets various needs over a wide area.
In order to meet strict contamination control requirements for ultra-pure water, polysulfone membranes have been employed due to their excellent high-polymer separation membranes. The cartridge demonstrates excellent filtration performance with various types of cleaning water in the electronics industry. It provides support for process cleaning efforts with its low initial pressure loss, high-precision filtration and long service life
Standard type that meets various needs over a wide area.
Minute pore diameter type that removes particles as small as 0.05 µm.
Smallest pore diameter type that removes particles as small as 0.03 µm.
Standard size with high flow rate due to its bigger membrane area.
High flow rate type with bigger membrane area and outer diameter of 130mm.
Compact capsule type with high flow rate. Can be used as a disposable filter.
Fujifilm’s micro filter is applied to filter process water used in the manufacturing process of pharmaceuticals and biopharmaceuticals.
With the high membrane manufacturing technology cultivated from long years of experience, Fujifilm realizes sharp pore distribution which offers customers efficient and high quality filtration system.
Filter aimed for food and beverage for the removal of microorganisms and fine particles.
Standard type of nominal filter made of non-woven polypropylene fabric.
Hydrophobic PTFE membrane type. Ideal for air vent.
