Camfil Farr is in the clean air business all over the world.
You could also say we are “clean and green” because we
have always assumed cradle-to-grave responsibility for
our products, paying close attention to their energy and
life cycle costs, and their economic and environmental
impact.
Our corporate values include customer satisfaction,
reliability, local presence, commitment and team work.
Now we’re adding sustainability to the agenda.
We are taking the sustainability challenge to maintain our global leadership
position, retain the respect of the market and strengthen our credibility as the
greenest air filtration company on the planet.
In our view, sustainability is essential for fully understanding the social and
environmental concerns of customers, employees and other stakeholders. We
will therefore focus on key issues from a sustainability perspective, managing our
growth and expansion responsibly.
Our plans for the near term include developing an environmental report and
action plan for each Camfil Farr facility in the world, and publishing a corporate sus-
tainability report. These initiatives will facilitate accountability by our organization
across our markets and demonstrate our commitment to transparency.
Camfil Farr is looking forward to a bright and sustainable future with you.

Providing the world’s cleanest air outside the South Pole
Air sampling has been done at the South
Pole since the 1950s and the Antarctic
is the only area in the Southern
Hemisphere where the purest air can
be found. Just ask Camfil Farr Italy,
which helped sponsor an exploratory
expedition to the South Pole in 2008.
Checking air on this truly remote continent is
like taking a person's blood pressure. It is a
way to measure the health of the world’s air
on a daily basis. Since there are no towns or
cities and no population centres, the atmos-
phere over Antarctica is extremely clean and
unpolluted. This gives scientists a chance to
study an almost pure atmosphere, discover the
chemicals and particles in the air, and determine
their concentrations.
Many Camfil Farr customers also require
“South Pole” air conditions in their industries to
ensure the cleanest, safest and most efficient
production environment. When they want the
cleanest of air, they don’t have to join an expedi-
tion and head south – they can get it right in
their home country with our Absolute high-tech
filters, one of many Camfil Farr products for a
cleaner world.
In 2009, Camfil Farr is implementing
“Camfilcairing”, a Group-wide initiative and
programme to further develop and maintain
sustainable business practices.

The MDS is scheduled for launch in August or
September this year on NASA’s space shuttle
(see separate article). But this is not Camfil
Farr’s first venture into space – we also devel-
oped the filters for the Mars Pathfinder mission
(1997) to prevent contamination of the Martian
atmosphere from bacteria and spores.
Italian project
The MDS is an investigation of Agenzia Spaziale
Italiana (ASI), the Italian space agency. The
system has been designed and developed by
Thales Alenia Space in Italy. The space study will
use a mouse model to investigate the genetic
mechanisms underlying bone mass loss in the
microgravity conditions of space. The MDS will
support mice onboard the space station during
long exploration missions (100 to 150 days) by
providing space, food, water, ventilation and
lighting.
Mice can be accommodated either individu-
ally (maximum 6) or in groups (4 pairs). When
transported in the shuttle later this year, the
MDS will be located mid-deck during uploading
and downloading. On the ISS, it will be deployed
in the U.S. Destiny laboratory, where the experi-
ment will be conducted. The two-chamber MDS
will provide all the comforts mice need in the
form of food and water dispensers and exercise
devices.
Filters for a mouse house, in a space placeIs Camfil Farr engaged in rodent research? Hardly, but we have developed the air filters for the innovative “Mouse Drawer System” (MDS) that will be used for the first live-animal science investigation on the International Space Station (ISS) since the project was started ten years ago.

On behalf of the Group’s Italian subsidiary and
its customer, ASI, Camfil Farr’s R&D Department
in Sweden has custom-designed, built and sup-
plied five different types of filters for the MDS to
prevent possible microbiological contamination
through air exchanged between the ISS cabin
and the MDS.
Filters under the cage floor will collect waste
produced by the mice and clean air circulating
through the cages. These filters are equipped
with specially selected Gigapleat media, as well
as silica gel and other media.
The inlet and outlet air filters will remove
particulate and bacteria in the ISS cabin. These
filters also use specially selected Gigapleat
media, plus hEPA media.
Pre-filters will protect the upper parts of
the air circuit devices, and post-filters the lower
parts when the operator changes the waste
filters.
“One of the most challenging aspects of
this project was to keep the weight of the filters
below specification by using as little glue as
possible, while also keeping the filters leak-free
and durable within the very tight tolerances
of +/- 0.5 mm,” says Christian lindahl, who
specializes in filter development at the R&D
Department in Sweden.
Of mice and men – and a womanThe MDS with Camfil Farr filtration will be used
for STS-128, an assembly mission with the
Discovery space shuttle to the International
Space Station. liftoff is targeted in August or
September 2009. The flight is one of six NASA
missions planned for 2009.
STS-128 will launch the Multi-Purpose
logistics Module leonardo packed with science
and storage racks, including the MDS, for the
International Space Station. The mission will
include three spacewalks to remove and replace
a materials processing experiment outside the
European Space Agency’s Columbus module
and return an empty ammonia tank assembly.
The crew, with one exception, is all-Ameri-
can. Rick Sturckow will command space shuttle
Discovery on the STS-128 mission. Kevin Ford
will serve as the pilot. Mission specialists are
Danny Olivas, Patrick Forrester, Jose hernandez
and European Space Agency astronaut Christer
Fuglesang (Sweden). The mission will deliver a
new station crew member to the outpost, Nicole
Stott, and return Tim Kopra to Earth.
New in space
Nicole, an American and the only female mission
specialist on the mission, will return to Earth
Researching bone mass loss
So what is the connection between humans,
bone mass loss, mice and space? It is an
established fact that astronauts suffer from
significant loss of bone mass (osteoporosis)
during long space flights, simply because their
skeletons are not subjected to Earth’s normal
gravitational load.
The ISS Medical Project office has devel-
oped countermeasures to hinder the rapid loss
of bone mass in astronauts but it continues to
be a persistent problem. Because the micro-
gravity of space is considered by the scientific
community as an accelerated model for study-
ing terrestrial osteoporosis, results obtained in
the upcoming MDS space experiment will facili-
tate the understanding of genetic elements that
protect people from the bone disease. An esti-
mated 44 million people suffer from it today.
MDS will test the hypothesis that mice
with increased bone density are likely to be
more protected from osteoporosis, when the
increased bone mass is a direct effect of a gene
involved in skeletogenesis (skeleton formation).
Mice have been selected because there is a
remarkable similarity between the human and
mouse genome.
Five custom filters from Camfil Farr
Sensors at the air inlet of the two MDS cham-
bers will measure air temperature, air humid-
ity and CO2 and Nh3 concentrations. The air
conditioning system will generate a continuous
air flow of 0.1 m/s through the cages to renew
air and remove waste products. Air renewal is
performed by exchanging about 5% of the total
air within the ISS cabin to eject carbon dioxide
and inject oxygen.

on the November shuttle mission. She has
been with NASA since 1988 and was selected
to be a mission specialist in 2000. She has
performed evaluations of station payloads for
the Astronaut Office Station Operations Branch,
and also worked as a support astronaut and
mission control communications specialist for
the ISS Expedition 10 crew. In 2006, she was a
crew member on the NEEMO 9 mission (NASA
Extreme Environment Mission Operations),
where she lived and worked with a six person
crew for 18 days on the Aquarius undersea
research habitat.
Sweden’s astronaut
The international Camfil Farr Group is based
in Sweden and we are naturally pleased that
Christer Fuglesang will be representing the
country and Europe on board STS-128. He
entered the Mission Specialist Class at NASA
Johnson Space Center, Houston, in August
1996, and qualified for flight assignment as a
mission specialist in April 1998. Christer is a
member of ESA’s European Astronaut Corps,
whose home base is the European Astronaut
Center located in Germany. He has prior space
flight experience from 2006 on board Space
Shuttle Discovery for flight STS-116 to the ISS.
During his mission, he participated in three
spacewalks and will undertake two of three
walks planned for STS-128 this year.
Rick Sturckow has solid experience from
three previous ISS space missions: he flew as
the commander of STS-117 in 2007, and was
the pilot of STS-105 in 2001 and STS-88 in
1998. Kevin Ford and Jose Hernandez are flying
their first space missions. Danny Olivas flew as
a mission specialist and conducted two space-
walks during STS-117 in 2007. Patrick Forrester
flew as a mission specialist on STS-117 in 2007
and on STS-105 in 2001. He has also conduct-
ed four spacewalks. Tim Kopra will be launched
to the International Space Station with the crew
of STS-127, scheduled for May this year. All are
from the U.S.
Filters that work hand-in-glove with containment
Camfil Farr Sweden has also been one of the air filter suppliers for the Portable Glovebox
(PGB), a multi-user facility for biological research during long-duration space flights on
the ISS. The PGB has been engineered and manufactured by Bradford Engineering in the
Netherlands, a subcontractor to ESA.
The PGB is qualified for NASA’s U.S. Destiny lab, the European Space Agency’s
Columbus lab and the Russian segment. It provides two levels of containment, the first
being the enclosure itself (box, gloves, filters) and the second level being realized through
negative pressure inside the box. For the application of the PGB with MDS, a dedicated
Interface Adapter has been developed by Bradford Engineering, as subcontractor to Thales
Alenia Space. The Interface Adapter provides the possibility to connect the PGB to MDS. In
this configuration, maintenance on the MDS can be performed with the two levels of contain-
ment present. For this dedicated application, the inlet and outlet filters have been supplied
by Camfil Farr Sweden and are similar to the filters used in the MDS (see article). They also
use specially selected Gigapleat media.
The PGB allows astronauts and researchers to perform small experiments on the ISS,
greatly improving flexibility in operations.
Sundry filters for First SolarFirst Solar develops technologies that drive down the cost of solar energy, making it a sustainable alternative to conventional energy sources.
The company produces solar modules with an
advanced thin-film semiconductor process and
provides comprehensive photovoltaic (PV) solu-
tions that significantly reduce solar electricity
costs.
Solar panels at FirstSolar’s new plant in
Frankfurt (Oder), Germany are produced in the
cleanest of conditions with Camfil Farr HEPA
filters. Due to the success of the German instal-
lation, FirstSolar chose the same filters to clean
air at its four new plants in Malaysia.

Energy giants like the Royal Dutch/Shell Group,
Russia’s Gazprom and Exxon Mobil participated
in this first pipeline project. So did Camfil Farr
Power Systems (CFPS), which supplied a total
of 36 Tenkay hemipleat filter houses for instal-
lation on 30 MW gas turbines running gas
compressors at 18 gas compression stations
along the pipeline.
Each filter house for this project consisted
of 240 filter elements. Tenkay hemipleat is
designed for pulse cleaning cartridges and uses
state-of-the-art pleating technology for superior
performance. Synthetic beads hold the pleats
more open and the wider space in the hemipleat
design allows greater media utilisation and more
effective filtration with considerably lower pres-
sure drop and longer service life. The filter’s new
PolyTech media is the most advanced pulse-
cleaned media ever made.
Fuelling national expansion
China’s leaders might be forecasting slower
growth for its turbocharged economy but the
country’s huge appetite for energy remains.
Natural gas is a substantial source. China’s
natural gas is found mostly in the west of the
country while the market for the fuel is in the
east. Western China’s natural gas reserves
are estimated at 22,400 billion cubic metres,
representing some 60 percent of the total for
China as a whole.
Many years of exploration have revealed
four national-scale gas fields in the Tarim,
Qaidam, Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia, and Sichuan-
Chongqing basins. By the end of 2008, the
country had proven gas reserves of 2,500
billion cubic meters with an annual production
capacity of 18 billion cubic metres.
Second pipeline in progress
After the successful completion of the first
pipeline, China National Petroleum Corporation
(CNPC) has now started to build a second
West-East Gas Pipeline, called WEPP2, linking
Turkmenistan to China’s Guangdong province.
This is currently one of the world’s largest pipe-
line projects and is expected to diversify China’s
energy supply and reduce future dependence on
Russian gas.
The pipeline will have a total length of 8,704
km, consist of one trunk line and eight sub-lines,
cross 15 regions and carry 30 billion cubic
metres of natural gas every year to Zhejiang,
Shanghai, Guangdong and hong Kong, among
other areas. Gas will also be taken from fields in
Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan.
CFPS sole filter supplier
For this project CFPS has been selected as the
only filter house supplier for gas turbines along
the entire pipeline. The gas turbines, generating
30 MW each, will be installed at 14 gas com-
pression stations. The planned scope of supply
involves 34 filter houses for the pipeline section
in China and nine in Uzbekistan. All 43 are iden-
tical in design and 240 Tenkay hemiPleat filter
elements have been specified for the project.
Orders have been received to date for a
large number of houses, and if all contracts are
awarded as planned, the finished pipeline will
use a total of 16,800 Tenkay hemiPleat filter
elements.
In the pipeline again with hemiPleat®
One of the original four large infrastructure projects in China’s tenth five-year
plan (2001-05) was the construction of the West-East Gas Pipeline, which
transports clean fuel from Xinjiang to the energy-hungry Yangtze River Delta.

Optimum filtration for Yangzijiang
Yangzijiang, a family-owned pharmaceutical
company in China, employs Good Manufacturing
Process (GMP) standards to assure quality in all
stages of its drug manufacturing process and
knows the value of using the right air filters to
guarantee production.
Seeing how Camfil Farr air filters were
already being used in the company’s high-
temperature sterilizing equipment and Class
100 laminar flow equipment, Yangzijiang turned
to Camfil Farr China for a solution incorporating
a life Cycle Cost/Total Cost of Ownership (lCC/
TCO) approach.
hi-Flo and Opakfil filters were recommend-
ed, and after one-year of monitoring and data
analysis, the products were proved to offer
many advantages, such as energy savings in
addition to effective high filtration efficiency.
Wyeth China
Wyeth Nutrition has been a leader in infant and
paediatric nutrition. The company is also a top
competitor in consumer health care products.
These products are produced all over the world,
including China.
During 2008 Camfil Farr China provided
clean air solutions for Wyeth Consumer
healthcare and Wyeth Nutritional in Shanghai,
including coarse filters and fine filters for air
handling units, air supply terminals for clean-
rooms, air exhaust control equipment and dust
collector systems.
Shanghai Techcomp
Shanghai Techcomp Instrument ltd. is a
scientific instrument manufacturer in China. As a
strategic partner and OEM for Nuair, Techcomp
has developed rapidly and become an important
supplier of biological safety cabinets in China.
Since the company’s Class 2 safety cabinet
is a single-fan system with 70% supply air and
30% exhaust air, the low pressure drop of the
cabinet’s Camfil Farr filters is essential to main-
tain air flow, ensuring high biosafety standards.
Perfect painting at Fengshen
As a well-known air conditioning equipment
manufacturer, the Fengshen Group has
co operated with Camfil Farr to provide clean
air solutions that protect material during the
shipbuilding process.
When liquid petroleum gas (lPG) cargo
ships are built, the walls of the ship’s hold walls
must be painted with a special coating that is
expensive and easily corrupted by atmospheric
gases. CamCarb and CityCarb filters remove
harmful SO2, NO2 and h2S gases effectively,
ensuring a perfect painting process.
Serving the diverse Chinese marketIn China, Camfil Farr has been
providing air filtration systems to
ensure clean processes in a variety
of industries ranging from pharma-
ceuticals to scientific instrument
production. Here are some recent
examples.

Sleepyhead (Auckland, New Zealand)
has been at the forefront of bed
manufacturing and bedding tech-
nology for more than 60 years. The
company’s new factory complex is
one of the biggest in Australasia. It is
also one of the most technologically
advanced bed manufacturing plants
in the world.
In 2008, Sleepyhead decided to bring manu-
facturing of polyurethane foam to the plant,
which is an essential raw material in-house.
Polyurethane foam manufacturing involves
toluene di-isocyanate (TDI) – a chemical that
can be hazardous to humans and the wider
environment if it is not handled with care, even
in very small amounts.
Enclosing the foam process
To protect process operators, near neigh-
bours and the external environment, it is good
practice to enclose the foam process, pro-
vide extract ventilation and filter the exhaust
stream to remove all traces of TDI prior to
release to atmosphere.
Sleepyhead visited a Camfil Farr refer-
ence installation at a foam producer in the UK
and requested Camfil to design and install a
TDI filter for the Auckland foam facility.
Camfil in New Zealand and the UK co-
operated to complete the contract. Today, the
foam facility is now operational, the filter is
removing the TDI and compliance is assured
with all regulations. Now everyone can sleep
easy in their beds at night. This installation is
one of many that Camfil Farr has provided to
foam producers around the world.
The mine is replacing the old collectors and
wet scrubbers with Gold Series collectors and
hemiPleat® cartridge filters on numerous
transfer points and primary, secondary, and
tertiary crushers.
Camfil Farr GS technology, like the GS72
used for secondary ore crushing (photo to
right), is expected to make the crushing process
more reliable and efficient, reduce emissions
and minimize maintenance issues. The first GS
unit is performing successfully now, with the
remaining units slated for start-up in 2009.
The products
Gold Series dust and fume collectors are used
for a wide variety of pollution control and prod-
uct recovery applications in industry and known
for combining enhanced performance with ease
of service while cleaning the work environment
of irritating dust and fumes.
The hemiPleat cartridge uses state-of-the-
art pleating technology. Synthetic beads hold
the pleats of the cartridge open with wide pleat
spacing not found in competitive cartridges,
which are packed too tightly to maximize
media use. The wider spacing of the hemiPleat
design exposes more media to the gas stream
and results in lower pressure drop as well
as improved cartridge release characteristics
during pulse cleaning.
The golden touch for copper
In 2008, Camfil Farr Air Pollution
Control in the U.S. received the largest
single order ever for its popular Gold
Series® dust collectors. During the
previous year, Camfil Farr APC helped
a leading copper mine in the U.S.
become more efficient by providing a
dust collection solution that improved
air quality and reduced emissions to
one one-hundreth of former levels.
A sister division wanted similar results
and came to Camfil Farr APC for help.

Camseal and Megalam in the City of SailsStarship Children’s hospital in the heart of
Auckland, known as the City of Sails, was New
Zealand's first for children and their health
needs. Specially designed to appeal to young
people, the facility is built around a central
atrium with a rainforest theme, a playground
and natural light.
Camfil Farr’s subsidiary in New Zealand
recently won a significant order for Camseal
filter housings and Megalam hEPA filters for
a suspended tiled ceiling that was installed
in connection with the refurbishment of the
hospital’s bone marrow wards on level 7.
The 112 Camseal housings were designed
around the new ceiling and are well suited to
provide comfort and hygiene for immuno-
compromised children.
Camseal is a reloadable filtered diffuser
designed to hold the hEPA Megalam terminal
filtration stage. The solution is used for more
reliable, simpler and safer risk control in sensi-
tive environments.
When it opens in 2009 (Phase 1 and 2), and is completely finished in 2015, Qatar’s
New Doha International Airport (NDIA) will accommodate 24 million passengers and
750,000 metric tons of cargo annually. It will feature two of the longest commercial
runways in the world, an 85-meter-high control tower, a 510,000-square-meter
passenger terminal with 40 gates and a separate terminal for the Emir of Qatar.
Citysorb for Qatar’s new gateway to the world
Camfil Farr’s largest Citysorb order to date
was won in connection with the NDIA project.
This high-efficiency compact molecular filter is
designed for addressing IAQ issues in public
and commercial buildings. At NDIA, more than
1,300 Citysorbs will be installed in air handling
units serving the airport’s passenger terminals
and aircraft maintenance hangar.
Camfil Farr offers an entire range of air
filters to satisfy all demands from airports.
These products eliminate the nuisance of exter-
nal pollutants and provide clean and comfort-
able indoor air for the travelling public and
airport staff.

The louvered CamVane is typically installed
in marine environments, coastal areas and
by other major sources of moisture, such as
rivers.
The product has been installed at a number
of facilities in Sweden, including one of the
largest medical universities in Europe – the
Karolinska Institute in Stockholm – where
CamVane prevents snow from being drawn into
the air handling system for the sensitive hospi-
'Out-louvering' rain or snow
tal environment. The louvered system has also
been sold to the Malmö Sports Arena (photo
above), where 45 CamVanes outmanoeuvre – or
should we say “out-louver” – drifting snow.
Installed upstream and/or downstream of
particulate filters, CamVane is also used to pre-
vent water droplets from entering the air-intake
filtration systems of gas turbines and turbo
machinery.
Test gains with CamVane
Differentiating the performance properties of
CamVane versus competitor products is highly
important and Camfil Farr has developed a new
method to better evaluate and verify the prod-
uct’s efficiency in tests.
Historically, the efficiency of weather protec-
tion systems has been tested by measuring the
quantity of water bypassing the vanes. In the
new method, the efficiency of CamVane is deter-
mined on separate droplet sizes down to 1 µm
to disting uish its performance more accurately
than before in comparison tests with competing
systems.
The new test method uses a warm thread
droplet counter. A pressure cleaner generates
the droplet mist and the test is conducted
at various air flows. High humidity conditions
are maintained during the test to prevent the
droplets from evaporating, which is crucial for
achieving true test results.
Camfil Farr Power Systems’ product range includes the CamVane droplet
separator, a heavy-duty and highly effective rain protection unit solving
moisture problems that affect the performance of ventilation systems.
In 2008, Camfil Farr moved its headquarters
in Sweden from Trosa to an office building
in downtown Stockholm that was originally
constructed in the 1880s but completely
renovated in 2004.
Several hundred people work in the build-
ing for several companies and the owner and
real estate management company, Bonnier
Cityfastigheter, is careful to provide a pleasant,
functional and comfortable working environ-
ment for tenants. The building is located on
Sveavägen, one of Stockholm’s main streets,
where traffic can be intense at times.
To ensure the highest indoor air quality
for offices and save energy, we recommend-
ed Bonnier to install our new energy-efficient
City-Flo XL filters in air handling units.
Practicing what we preachFor better indoor air quality
Representing Camfil Farr’s latest filter develop-
ment in the City series for “urban jungles”,
City-Flo XL is a dual-action, combination particle
and molecular filter with low pressure drop that
effectively removes particles, harmful gases
and odours. It is typically installed to replace
a bag filter or compact filter in new or existing
air handling systems for office buildings, shops,
shopping centres, schools and other public
buildings located near streets or roads where
vehicle traffic is heavy.
City-Flo XL is very efficient against ozone
and also removes gaseous polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons. It comes in two different lengths:
520 mm and 640 mm, both with ten filter
pockets.

transportation company also uses five CamCleaner
600s for cleaner air in a warehouse facility. At a sports
arena, a CamCleaner 80 has been installed in a special
room for people with severe allergies, allowing them to
attend events.
CamCleaners use the most efficient HEPA micro-filters.
The product comes in four models: CamCleaner 30
for small offices and rooms; CamCleaner 80 for com-
mercial and public buildings; CamCleaner 200 for large
premises and industry; and CamCleaner 600 for more
demanding production environments. All models can be
used as mobile units. The 200 and 600 models can also
be installed on the floor or in the ceiling.
