Vyon® Porous Polymer Fluidising Media

Our Vyon^® porous media is manufactured from USP Class VI approved HDPE or PP materials, making it particularly suitable for both food and pharmaceutical applications. It has a uniform pore structure giving an even total area fluidisation.

It is self-supporting due to its semi-rigid nature, thereby reducing the need for the external support structures that are required with canvas and felt media. This material can be supplied as a ready fabricated fluidising cone liner or in flat sheet form, 1000mm x 750mm (40” x 30”), for use as a tank liner or in an end user secondary fabrication.

Vyon^® porous polymers are the most economical choice where temperatures are in the range of -70°C to 80°C (-94°F to 176°F). Vyon® is fully cleanable for multiple re-uses, however, its affordability compared to stainless steel may permit more frequent replacement where a disposal fabrication is preferred to cleaning.
