China Challenge Filair® PTFE Hydrophobic Sterile Filters - High Retention & Throughput from Trusted Suppliers & Factory

The Challenge IM Capsule Filters represent a comprehensive solution for biopharmaceutical processes in China, covering five essential series: clarification, pre-filtration & sterilizing-grade, sterile, mycoplasma removal, and gas filtration. With particle retention capabilities ranging from 0.1 to 30 μm, these filters effectively meet all process requirements from cell culture clarification to final product sterilization. Designed for flexibility, they support high-temperature steam sterilization and gamma irradiation, making them compatible with a variety of commonly used biopharmaceutical solvents.

All molded parts and sealing components are free of colorants, adhering to Class VI and ISO 10993 biocompatibility standards to minimize leachables and extractables while ensuring hygienic processing. Each filter undergoes rigorous dual integrity testing during production, utilizing two independent test methods for release, guaranteeing a 100% factory pass rate. Our commitment to quality is reflected in compliance with ISO 9001 quality management and GMP standards, alongside successful certifications from USP endotoxin, USP / biocompatibility, and USP extractables tests, eliminating any animal-derived TSE/BSE risks.

As one of the leading suppliers in China, we take pride in our products, validated by multiple internationally recognized agencies such as SGS and NF. Trust Challenge IM Capsule Filters for fully verified and reliable filtration solutions throughout your entire biopharmaceutical process.
