Phone Number: (860) 899-6550Company email address: Gerry@swiftgreenfilters.comI am the Sales Manager for Swift Green Filters Filtration Products.We offer a variety of carbon block filters, from standard CTO filters to filters rated for bacteria, virus and pharmaceutical reduction.We also manufacture replacement cartridge filters for most major refrigerator brands, drinking water systems and food service water purification systems.Our melt blown filters are true graded density filters with three different filtration zones. These distinct filtration zones allow our melt blown filters to remove the larger contaminants in the outer layers of the filter, the medium sized contaminants in the middle layers of the filter and the smaller contaminants in the inner layers of the filter. This three layer graded density structure results in maximum dirt holding capacity, since the entire filter structure is available for dirt holding and the potential for surface blinding in minimized.Our scale inhibitor filters incorporate our proprietary scale inhibitor media, which is far more effective than other scale inhibitors on the market. Please feel free to contact me to discuss the benefits of our carbon block technology, graded density melt blown construction and proprietary scale inhibitor media.In addition to these exciting new products, we also manufacture many standard filtration products, like polyester pleated filters, pool filters, air filters, RV filters, etc.We are looking for distributors for our Swift branded filter lines. We also partner with OEM's and offer private label opportunities.
