Tri-Foam technology explained
ITG’s unique three layer foam design uses progressively finer cells to capture debris of all sizes while maintaining excellent airflow. The outer layer arrests larger particles, the mid layer handles medium contaminants and the inner layer, combined with specialised oil, traps the finest dust. This layered approach means the Profilter keeps flowing freely long after paper filters have begun to clog and restrict power.
