Hi-Tech Filters Sdn. Bhd. was incorporated in 1998 and its core business was fabrication of fabric-based filtration products for industrial application. Due to the increasing demand and requirements from our customers, Total Environmental Control Sdn. Bhd. was incorporated in May 2006 to take over the trading division and concentrates on the trading of filtration products manufactured by Hi-Tech Filters and other range of filtration products.

Being the source of all our customers' filtration needs, we provide a wide and complete range of products with assurance that they are of the highest quality and performance at competitive pricing. We achieve this high standard with the support and close rapport with our overseas raw material suppliers.

We took another step forward when we moved to our new and bigger factory during the third quarter of 2002. State-of-the-art machines like the tubular fabric welding machine, long-arm sewing machine and semi-auto snap band machine were added with this expansion. In the future to come, in order to satisfy further our ever-growing customers' requirements in terms of quality and technology, we are now looking at acquiring more fabric welding machine where filters shall be fully instead of partly welded.

We also intend to acquire a fully automatic tubular fabric machine to increase our capacity and productivity. Equipped with these latest technology and state-of-the-art sewing and fabrication equipments, we also believe that the quality of our products will be enhanced and our productivity increased.

Hi-Tech Filters will continue to thrive to be the pioneer in the filtration industry and provide the best quality products, services and pricing to its customers.

Public opinion says the environment matters. Governments too; the scope and number of regulations defining our interactions with the environment is on the increase. So is the pressure to compete. For some European companies investing in environmental control systems is a question of commercial survival. Emissions need to be limited. And so do costs.

As the challenge to stay clean and viable mounts, so does the popularity of textile based filtration systems. Alternative systems such as electro-static precipitation require huge initial investments, are heavy users of scarce fixed assets such as land, and often prove to be less efficient in limiting emissions.

When it comes to textile based filter systems, drawing up specifications for the filter plant involves more than simply looking at size. The choice of filter media influences both emission levels and running costs. So much so that an increasing number of filtration plant operators now even specify the type of fibre to be used in the filter bags. Here are a few reasons why.
