Filter Press Cloth vs Belt Press Filter Cloth
Understanding the difference helps you choose the right industrial filter cloth for your application:
| Comparison | Filter Press Cloth | Belt Press Filter Cloth |
|---|---|---|
| Operation Mode | Batch (intermittent) | Continuous |
| Equipment Type | Plate & Frame / Chamber / Membrane Press | Belt Filter Press |
| Cloth Shape | Cut to plate size (square/rectangle) | Endless loop belt |
| Primary Material | PP, PE, Nylon, PVDF | Polyester |
| Cake Dryness | 25–45% solids | 15–30% solids |
| Best For | High dryness, fine particles, chemical | High volume sludge, continuous operation |
| Replacement Cycle | 6–24 months | 3,000–8,000 hours |
Industries We Serve
Our industrial filter cloth solutions are deployed in critical filtration processes across 6 major industry sectors worldwide:

Chemical & Petrochemical
Pigment filtration, catalyst recovery, dye intermediates, and chemical sludge dewatering. Acid and alkali resistant PP and PVDF fabric options for corrosive process environments.
Food & Beverage
Juice clarification, brewery waste filtration, sugar processing, starch extraction, and palm oil mill effluent. FDA-compliant materials available for food-contact applications.
Pharmaceutical
API filtration, intermediate recovery, and pharmaceutical wastewater treatment. Ultra-clean monofilament cloth for GMP-compliant processes with validated wash procedures.
Pulp, Paper & Ceramics
Paper mill sludge dewatering, fiber recovery, kaolin filtration, titanium dioxide processing, and ceramic slurry separation with fine particle retention.
Material Options
We manufacture industrial filter cloth in multiple materials to match your slurry chemistry, temperature, and particle characteristics:
| Material | pH Range | Max Temp | Key Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Polypropylene (PP) | 1–13 | 90°C | Most versatile, excellent chemical resistance |
| Polyester (PE/PET) | 2–9 | 130°C | High strength, abrasion resistant |
| Nylon (PA) | 5–9 | 120°C | Food grade, fine particle retention |
| PVDF | 1–14 | 150°C | Extreme acid/alkali environments |
| Cotton | 2–10 | 90°C | Traditional, sugar & edible oil processing |

Frequently Asked Questions
What is industrial filter cloth used for?
Industrial filter cloth is used in solid-liquid separation equipment such as filter presses and belt presses. It acts as the filtration medium that retains solid particles while allowing liquid (filtrate) to pass through. Common applications include sludge dewatering, mining tailings filtration, chemical product recovery, and wastewater treatment.
What is the difference between filter press cloth and belt press filter cloth?
Filter press cloth is cut to plate dimensions for batch-operated plate & frame or chamber filter presses, delivering higher cake dryness (25–45% solids). Belt press filter cloth is an endless loop belt for continuously-operated belt filter presses, processing larger sludge volumes with cake dryness of 15–30% solids. The choice depends on your throughput needs and target dryness.
How do I select the right filter cloth material?
Selection depends on slurry pH, temperature, and particle characteristics. Polypropylene (PP) handles pH 1–13 up to 90°C and covers 80% of applications. Polyester suits higher temperatures and abrasive slurries. Nylon excels with fine particles in neutral pH. PVDF handles extreme acid/alkali conditions. Contact ECOGRACE for free material recommendation based on your process conditions.
Can you supply replacement cloth for any filter press brand?
Yes. We manufacture OEM-equivalent industrial filter cloth for all major brands including Jingjin, Andritz, Diefenbach, Outotec/Metso, FLSmidth, Alfa Laval, BDP, Bellmer, Netzsch, and more. Send us your press model number or old cloth photo for exact specification matching and competitive quotation.
What is the typical lead time for custom filter cloth?
Standard production lead time is 7–20 working days depending on complexity and quantity. Filter press cloth (cut pieces) typically takes 10–15 days. Belt press cloth (endless belts) typically takes 15–20 days. Rush orders available at additional cost. We ship worldwide via DHL/FedEx express or sea freight for bulk orders.
What is your minimum order quantity?
We accept orders from 1 piece for custom filter cloth. There is no minimum order requirement — whether you need a single trial piece or thousands of cloths per year, we accommodate your needs. Volume pricing available for annual supply contracts.
