The new air filtration arrangement at Manchester Airport involves a single Synsafe Revo pocket filter. The filter can deliver reductions in energy consumption thanks to a low resistance to airflow combined with the ability to remove the need for a pre-filter stage.

The Vokes-Air products are predicted to deliver annual savings of approximately £514,000 they will also help Manchester Airport reach its commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2015.

Andrew Sheridan, Manchester Airport’s services facilities manager said: “The Manchester team, which had already commenced a comprehensive energy review at the airport, trialled the Vokes-Air products alongside competitor products and made their decision on the basis of projected performance and energy savings.”
