Bernard Brewery
Humpolec, Czech Republic
Bernard brews with water from its own wells. An FW050 automatic filter at the treatment plant inlet takes out the fine sand before it reaches the sand filtration — chemical-free, and it cleans itself.

Narex Ždánice
Ždánice, Czech Republic
Narex needed clean cooling water for its quenching furnaces. An FED150 automatic filter now handles the full circuit flow at 150 micron — and let the site retire a large sand filter altogether.

Continental Tyres
Otrokovice, Czech Republic
Continental wanted its cooling circuit to stop drinking water. An FW200 automatic filter took the solids load off the main sand filters before it reached them, and cut their backwash water by 60%.

Boral Maldon Operations
Maldon, New South Wales
Dam water was blocking manual strainers across Boral's Maldon cement works, and staff were cleaning the screens by hand. An FW200 automatic filter on the supply line ended that job.

Capral Aluminium
Campbellfield, Victoria
A 25-year-old screen filter at Capral's Campbellfield plant was due for replacement, but the pipework around it could not move. An FW200 High Pressure filter went in at 212 m³/hr and 12 bar — with fabricated "S" bends doing the fitting.

Bayside Brisbane Retirement Village
Bayside Brisbane, Queensland
Weed and algae were fouling the irrigation tanks at a 50-acre garden estate, forcing a vac truck on site every three months. An FWAE1 brush filter upstream of the tanks stretched that to every 18 — and paid for itself in the same time.

Western Sydney Wanderers Centre of Football
Blacktown, New South Wales
Nine pitches at the Wanderers' training base are irrigated from harvested stormwater. Two FW150EX automatic filters at 200 micron keep the grit out of the valves and sprinkler heads.

HBIS HanDan Steelworks — Crystallizer Cooling
Handan, Hebei, China
At HBIS Group's new HanDan steelworks, mould crystallizer cooling water had to stay clean — any interruption stops the caster. A single FW350HP high-pressure filter now protects the line at 900 m³/h.

HBIS HanDan Steelworks — Machine Cooling
Handan, Hebei, China
Brush filters on the caster's machine cooling water kept blocking — sand lodged in the wedge-wire screens. A twin FWT500HP with fine mesh screens took over the 1800 m³/h duty.

Nanyang Hanye Special Steel — Casting Spray Water
Nanyang, Henan, China
Blocked spray nozzles on NYHY's 3CC casting line traced back to a rusted-out, decade-old brush filter. A staged Filtaworx system — one FW250HP main filter plus eleven FW080HP zone filters — cut nozzle blockages dramatically.

Baosteel Shanghai
Shanghai, China
Baosteel's Shanghai works — part of the world's largest steel producer — runs Filtaworx FW050HP high-pressure filters at 16 bar on the casting floor. In service since 2015.
