Pollen Protection Filter "poll-tex"

Pollen Protection Filter "poll-tex"

The pollen protection filter "poll-tex" received the European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation’s Seal of Quality for products and services suitable for allergy sufferers.

The material stops 97% of birch pollen and 100% of grass pollen from entering a room. Even very small nettle pollen and ragweed pollen particles are almost completely blocked when the window is equipped with the pollen filter. The material is suitable for those with pollen allergies and is a good protection from airborne pollen.

The firm L. van Heek Textiles B.V. designs and develops household appliances and is located in Losser, The Netherlands.
