Our history
Our roots stem from woolen and worsted spinning of wool fibre and synthetic man-made fibres in the late 1960s. Through the spinning process, valuable knowledge was obtained regarding fibre formation and yarn construction, and the interaction between fibre and yarn surfaces, solids/particles and liquids/gases. Further knowledge was acquired in specific areas such as textile mechanics and polymeric materials. There followed work in the filtration industry during the late 1970s and 1980s, which yielded additional experience and expertise within filtration fabric technology and early development of e-PTFE membrane filtration technology. Septek was founded as a family company in 1990 to provide filtration fabric solutions for the Mining-, Paper & Pulp- and other process industries, mainly in the Nordic countries. Since then, the company has not only expanded into new fields of filtration and separation, but also into new markets in other parts of the world.
