Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from kitchen equipment buyers, HVAC contractors, and OEM distributors.

What is an aluminium mesh filter used for?

Aluminium mesh filters are used primarily as grease pre-filters in commercial kitchen range hoods and as pre-filters in HVAC and AHU (Air Handling Unit) systems — read our aluminium mesh vs HEPA pre-filter comparison for more info. They capture larger airborne particles — particularly grease droplets and coarse dust — before they reach more expensive secondary filters, extending the overall system life.

Can aluminium mesh filters be washed?

Yes. Unlike electrostatic or carbon filters, aluminium mesh filters are fully washable and reusable. They can be cleaned with warm soapy water or in a commercial dishwasher after each service cycle, as outlined in our aluminium mesh filter cleaning guide, making them a highly cost-effective long-term solution compared to disposable alternatives.

What custom sizes are available?

We manufacture aluminium mesh filters to any custom dimension — width, height, and depth — to the millimeter precision. Frame materials (aluminium alloy, galvanized steel, stainless steel) and mesh layer count (3–7 layers) are also fully customizable to your application requirements.

Are your aluminium filters suitable for high-temperature kitchen environments?

Yes. Our aluminium mesh filters can withstand temperatures up to 400°C, making them ideal for commercial kitchen range hoods where grease-laden air reaches high temperatures during cooking. The aluminium and steel construction remains structurally sound throughout the thermal cycling of daily kitchen use.

Where can I find a custom aluminum mesh filter manufacturer for HVAC units?

Nantong Deli is a direct OEM factory specializing in custom-sized aluminium mesh filters for HVAC, AHU, and commercial kitchen systems. We manufacture multi-layer expanded mesh filters to your exact dimensions (within 1mm accuracy), offering various frame materials including aluminium alloy and galvanized steel. With 30+ years of experience and ISO 9001:2015 certification, we provide factory-direct pricing and samples within 7 days. Contact us with your technical drawings or slot dimensions for a professional quote.

Can I replace stainless steel baffle filters with Deli's aluminum mesh filters?

Yes. While stainless steel baffle filters are standard for heavy grease extraction in kitchens, our multi-layer aluminium mesh filters offer a lighter, more cost-effective alternative for general HVAC pre-filtration and light-to-medium kitchen grease arrestment. Deli mesh filters are washable, reusable, and rated for temperatures up to 400°C. We can manufacture mesh filters to match the exact physical dimensions of your existing baffle filters for a direct drop-in replacement.

Are Deli aluminium mesh filters compliant for EU restaurant and industrial use?

Yes. Our aluminium mesh filters are manufactured under ISO 14001:2015 environmental standards and are fully RoHS and REACH compliant (no restricted heavy metals or SVHC above 0.1%). We provide CE marking support for our European OEM partners and can supply SGS laboratory test reports verifying material safety and filtration efficiency upon request. EU Responsible Person arrangements are also available for bulk importers.

Deli Aluminium Mesh vs. Industry Alternatives: Technical Comparison
