          Why Polypropylene? The Material Performance

          PP filter plates from HUSTON are trusted across demanding solid-liquid separation applications worldwide.

          • Corrosion resistance — Excellent tolerance to acids, alkalis, salts and most industrial chemicals, making it suitable for chemical, electroplating and mining slurries.
          • Lightweight — Density below 1 g/cm³ means easier handling, faster plate-changing and reduced labour during maintenance.
          • Low water absorption — Maintains dimensional stability over long service cycles, reducing the risk of warping or seal degradation.
          • Cost efficiency — Delivers reliable performance at significantly lower cost than stainless steel or PVDF alternatives.
          • Processability — Suitable for compression moulding and CNC machining, enabling precise custom profiles and non-standard geometries.

                  Custom PP Filter Plates — Built for Your Press

                  Standard plates don’t always fit complex equipment or demanding processes. HUSTON offers full engineering customisation to match your exact requirements.

                  • Drop-in replacement for existing filter presses from brands including ANDRITZ, Metso Outotec, Larox, Diemme, ISHIGAKI and others
                  • Custom mould tooling available for non-standard or irregular plate profiles
                  • Configurable parameters: plate size, chamber depth, feed position, filtrate outlet, sealing design, handle/lug form and drainage surface pattern
                  • Material upgrades: Glass fibre reinforced PP (GFPP) or PVDF available for high-pressure or high-temperature applications
