Category: Overspray Arrestors

Our Styrofoam paint arrestors remain a popular option for overspray capture without the need for holding grids.  Styrofoam paint arrestors consist of a two-piece interlocking grid of styrene louvers, with tabs on the edges so they fit easily into an exhaust plenum.  They are also fully washable for multiple uses, and are easily disposed of in thinner as part of normal waste, saving the associated headaches with hazardous disposal costs.  Contrary to popular belief, our Styrofoam paint arrestors are laboratory tested at above 98 percent overspray capture efficiency, complying with all federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States.  Styrofoam paint arrestors come in a standard size of 20”x20”x2”, with a 5”x2” adapter block available for 20”x25” applications.

Our exhaust bag filters, also known as cube or extractor filters, are used primarily for final overspray capture in the industrial and aerospace industries.  The standard efficiency filter is constructed of a single layer of one-ounce nonwoven polyester, while the higher efficiency filter adds a second layer of our E.P. media for total overspray capture.  Exhaust bag filters come in a standard 15” single pocket model, as well as dual-pocket model for when expanded surface area is needed.  Exhaust bag filters come in standard sizes of 20”x20”, 20”x25”, and 24”x24”.

Andreae filters have been an industry standard paint arrestor since 1963.  The standard efficiency filter is constructed of pleated paper in an accordion shape, with the front V-shaped wall preventing overspray bounce and the deeper V-shaped back wall holding overspray in its pocket.  The high-efficiency filter adds a layer of polyester to the back wall for enhanced overspray capture.  Both the standard efficiency and high-efficiency options have minimum overspray capture rates above 98 percent, complying with all federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States.  Andreae filters come in standard precut sizes of 20”x20”, 20”x25”, and 36”x30’.

Wave paint arrestors by Global Finishing Solutions are the first all-polyester filter specifically designed for waterborne paints.  The air entering side of the filter features a zig-zag design that provides increased surface area for overspray collection.  With an overspray capture rate of 99.73 percent, Wave filters exceed the minimum overspray capture efficiency needed to comply with all federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States. Wave  filters are available in quantities of 30 standard precut pads of 20”x20” and 20”x25”, as well as variable roll lengths ranging from 20” to 80” wide.

Paint Pockets paint arrestors are the original all-polyester filter with the highest high-solids paint holding capacity on the market today.  The air entering side of the filter is embedded with three-dimensional, diamond-shaped pockets that provide increased surface area for overspray collection.  With an overspray capture rate of 99.84 percent, Paint Pockets filters exceed the minimum overspray capture efficiency needed to comply with all federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States.  Paint Pockets are available in the original blue box or in the economy green box.  Paint Pockets is available in quantities of 30 standard precut pads of 20”x20” and 20”x25”, as well as 50’ rolls ranging for 20” to 60” wide.  Paint Pockets Green is available in quantities of 40 standard precut pads of 20”x20” and 20”x25”, as well as 60’ rolls ranging from 30” to 60” wide.

RP paint arrestors are one of the original paint arrestors to ever hit the market.  They are fabricated from slit and expanded Kraft paper, assembled so the air entering side has larger openings than the air leaving side.  They come in both standard efficiency and high-efficiency, with the high-efficiency filter including an extra layer of polyester on the air leaving side for increased overspray capture.  Whether the standard efficiency or high-efficiency model, all RP paint arrestors have a minimum overspray capture rate above 98 percent, complying with all federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States.  RP paint arrestors come in standard precut sizes of 20”x20” and 20”x25”, as well as variable 45” wide roll lengths.

Our blue E.P. Media paint arrestors consist of two layers of tight mesh, non-woven polyester fibers, with an average overspray capture efficiency exceeding 99 percent in order to comply with all.  E.P. media is a popular choice for use in a variety of industrial applications.  It is available in standard precut pads of 20”x20” and 20”x25”, as well as rolls ranging from 20” to 60” wide.  We can also custom cut any size pad for your specific needs.

Our high-density yellow fiberglass paint arrestor provides exceptional performance for overspray capture of a comprehensive range of automotive and industrial coatings.  This paint arrestor is made of progressively dense, two-stage continuous fiberglass strands with a 2.5” thickness.  22 grams of density per square foot makes the yellow fiberglass paint arrestor 50 to 80 percent heavier than our standard density green fiberglass paint arrestor, providing for increased removal efficiency and additional durability.  At a 99.6 percent overspray capture efficiency, the high-density yellow fiberglass paint arrestor exceeds all requirements for compliance with federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States.  It is available in standard precut pads of 20”x20”, 20”x25,” and 24”x25”, as well as 300’ long rolls ranging from 20” to 60” wide.

Our standard density green fiberglass paint arrestor is the economic solution for overspray capture of a comprehensive range of automotive and industrial coatings.  This paint arrestor is made of progressively dense, two-stage continuous fiberglass strands with a 2” thickness.  Precut pads have a 12-gram density per square foot, and provide for 98.7 percent overspray capture efficiency, complying with all federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States.   Master 300’ rolls have a 14-gram density per square foot, and provide for 99.3 percent overspray capture efficiency, exceeding requirements for compliance with all federal, state and local environmental laws governing overspray capture in the United States.  It is available in standard precut pads of 20”x20”, 20”x25”, and 24”x24”, as well as 300’ long rolls ranging from 20” to 60” wide.
