polypropylene filter plate Types

LONGONE offers four standard PP filter plate types — recessed chamber, membrane, CGR gasketed and plate & frame — plus custom and non-standard designs.

PP Recessed Chamber Filter Plate

The most widely used design for general solid-liquid separation across industrial and municipal applications.

PP Membrane Filter Plate

Adds an expandable diaphragm for secondary cake squeezing — ideal where lower moisture content is required.

PP CGR Filter Plate

Caulked, gasketed, recessed design for near-leak-free performance in chemical and high-pressure environments.

PP Plate & Frame Filter Plate

Traditional alternating plate-and-frame structure suited to fine filtration and specialty chemical processes.

Why Polypropylene? The Material Performance

Polypropylene is the benchmark material for industrial filter press plates — and for good reason.

  • Corrosion resistance — Excellent tolerance to acids, alkalis, salts and most industrial chemicals, making it suitable for chemical, electroplating and mining slurries.
  • Lightweight — Density below 1 g/cm³ means easier handling, faster plate-changing and reduced labour during maintenance.
  • Low water absorption — Maintains dimensional stability over long service cycles, reducing the risk of warping or seal degradation.
  • Cost efficiency — Delivers reliable performance at significantly lower cost than stainless steel or PVDF alternatives.
  • Processability — Suitable for compression moulding and CNC machining, enabling precise custom profiles and non-standard geometries.
