Sustainable Filters
Lanaco’s filter media is primarily made from New Zealand wool, a renewable natural fibre.
For over 10 years we have been researching, developing and manufacturing low resistance, sustainable and high-performing air filters.
We maintain traceability from farm to filter through working together closely with our sheep farm partners and other suppliers, as well as operating a sustainable production system including using renewable hydro energy.
Our Philosophy
In a world awash with synthetic materials, there now is a better choice.
Our philosophy begins at the source – natural fibre. From our beginnings we developed our fibre using sustainable guidelines by sourcing wool from farms embedded in principles of regenerative farming, energy reduction, animal welfare, and responsible care of the land, water and air.
Our ongoing scientific research program is linked to market needs and continues to ensure that we create a product which leads the world in the performance of renewables. We consciously work to minimise our impact on the people and the planet we are protecting.
Our manufacturing processes produces high-performance filters making as small an impact as we can on the environment. We plan to produce more, with less.
