Reemay Substitute Meltblown Filter Media: Nonwoven Equivalent Supplier India
Manufacturers seeking a Reemay substitute meltblown filter media nonwoven equivalent India can source high-performance filtration substrates domestically — with comparable particle capture efficiency, fibre fineness and basis weight at lower cost. Favourite Fab supplies meltblown nonwoven filter media from its ISO-certified facility in Agra, India, engineered to match and qualify against Reemay filtration specifications for HVAC, liquid filtration, face mask and industrial applications.
Reemay is a registered trademark (historically associated with spunbond polyester filtration media, now part of various brand portfolios). This guide compares Reemay-equivalent filtration performance against Favourite Fab meltblown across particle capture efficiency at multiple micron ratings — the data your engineering and procurement teams need to qualify a domestic India alternative.
Why Manufacturers Switch From Reemay to Generic Meltblown Filter Media
Reemay-branded filter media has long been specified for air and liquid filtration applications where consistent fibre morphology and predictable capture efficiency are required. However, the following factors drive OEMs and filter manufacturers toward generic equivalents:
- Import cost and lead time for India-based filter manufacturers
- Brand-name premium that does not translate to measurable performance advantage in most applications
- Domestic meltblown capacity in India has grown significantly since 2020
- Supply concentration risk — single-source branded material creates vulnerability
- Qualification of a generic equivalent enables dual sourcing and cost leverage
Detailed Specification Comparison
| Parameter | Reemay Equivalent Spec (Reference) | Favourite Fab Meltblown Filter Media |
|---|---|---|
| Technology | Fine fibre filtration media — spunbond or meltblown construction | Meltblown polypropylene — sub-micron fibre capability |
| Fibre Diameter | 1–10 micron typical | 0.5–5 micron — electret-charged grades available |
| Particle Capture @ 1 micron | ~45% (reference grade) | 35–50% — grade dependent |
| Particle Capture @ 5 micron | ~87% (reference grade) | 80–90% — matched to application |
| Particle Capture @ 10 micron | ~96% (reference grade) | 93–98% — high-efficiency grades available |
| Basis Weight (GSM) | 20–200 GSM | 20–200 GSM — full range covered |
| Pressure Drop | Low to medium — application specific | Matched — optimised for balance of efficiency and drop |
| Electret Charge | Available on selected grades | Available — corona-charged for enhanced capture |
| Cost vs Reemay (India landed) | Baseline | 20–35% lower — domestic supply advantage |
Which Grade to Choose and When
Use Reemay-specified media when your filter product is registered or validated against a specific Reemay datasheet — for example, HEPA composite filter constructions or regulatory filings that name the substrate.
Use Favourite Fab meltblown filter media when:
- You are developing new filter products and can specify the substrate during design
- Your application is HVAC pre-filtration, liquid bag filtration or industrial dust collection
- Face mask (FFP2/N95) inner meltblown layer — our electret-charged grades support BFE/PFE testing
- Cost reduction from branded imported media is a manufacturing target
- You need a dual-source qualification to reduce supply risk

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does Favourite Fab meltblown meet BFE 95 or BFE 99 requirements for face masks?
A: Our electret-charged meltblown grades are designed to support BFE 95 and BFE 99 mask constructions when used in the correct SMS composite layup. We supply test data from certified labs. Final BFE performance depends on your complete mask construction — we recommend testing the full composite at your mask testing lab.
Q: What is the fibre diameter range for Favourite Fab meltblown filter media?
A: Our standard meltblown grades have fibre diameters of 1–5 micron. Fine-fibre grades down to 0.5 micron are available for higher-efficiency applications. Fibre diameter is confirmed by SEM analysis on each production lot.
Q: Is Favourite Fab meltblown suitable for liquid filtration as well as air filtration?
A: Yes. Our meltblown grades are used in both air and liquid filtration applications. For liquid filtration, confirm the polymer and binder compatibility with your process fluid. PP meltblown is compatible with most aqueous and many organic liquid streams.
Q: Can Favourite Fab supply meltblown as part of an SMS or SMMS composite?
A: Yes. We supply meltblown as standalone rolls and as part of spunbond-meltblown-spunbond (SMS) composites. Specify your required layer structure, total GSM and end use and we will quote the composite construction.
Q: Does Favourite Fab provide filter efficiency test reports with each batch?
A: Yes. We provide particle filtration efficiency (PFE) and bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE) test data for filter-grade meltblown as part of our standard COA documentation. Third-party lab reports are available on request for regulated applications.
