A leading Somerset-based British air filter manufacturer that supplies companies worldwide has picked up the keys to its fifth manufacturing plant in Bridgwater as part of its ongoing plans to become more sustainable.

Jasun Envirocare, which is a family-run and owned manufacturing and services company with its headquarters also in Bridgwater, will use its new Colley Lane Industrial Estate site to manufacture carbon filters.

Graham Bentley, Chairman of Jasun Envirocare, explains

“This expansion is part of our ongoing sustainability drive. We have been bonding carbon filters for many years and that uses two ovens and a considerable amount of LPG and therefore produces CO2 emissions.

“We have designed a new process for making carbon filters, which will use a method that does not use heat and therefore reduces our carbon footprint in our race to Net Zero. Not only does this highlight our commitment to our planet but also represents our ongoing expansion plans in Bridgwater.”

The new plant at Cherry Orchard, Colley Lane Industrial Estate, is 4,200 square feet and will take the company’s total manufacturing space in Bridgwater to more than 103,000 square feet.

The carbon filters themselves are used for air pollution control and odour removal in a wide variety of places from airports, kitchens and museums to nail bars.
