Filpro

What Filpro does

Filpro Corporation is a privately held industrial filtration manufacturer and distributor founded in 1980 and headquartered in West Point, Pennsylvania. The company designs, manufactures, and distributes a comprehensive portfolio of air filters, dust collector filters, liquid filter cartridges and bags, compressor and vacuum pump filters, and hydraulic and oil filters, operating across 30+ end-markets including agriculture, automotive, aviation, chemical processing, food and beverage, medical, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment. Its proprietary media formulations — notably Spun Bond Polyester, Water Removal Micro-glass, and 80/20 cellulose/polyester blends — are positioned as differentiated replacements for incumbent OEM filters from Donaldson, Farr, Parker, Pall, and other major brands.

The business operates a hybrid model: in-house manufacturing through its Specialty Manufacturing Division for custom and standard product lines, combined with authorized distribution of complementary branded catalogs including the full Luber-finer filter line and the 350+ SKU SpillTech sorbent and spill containment product line. Revenue is generated through direct B2B hardware sales with no subscription component. The go-to-market combines an RFQ-driven technical sales motion for complex industrial accounts with an e-commerce storefront (filters.filpro.com) and an online Filter Cross-Reference Database that allows customers to self-identify Filpro replacements for OEM part numbers. Pricing is largely opaque, with public unit pricing only on selected commodity items such as polyester liquid filter bags starting at $2.58 per unit, while most products transact via request-for-quote.

The company is independently owned with no parent, no disclosed institutional investors, and no recorded funding rounds. Customer and supplier relationships span decades, and the company claims worldwide distribution capability from its Pennsylvania base. Filpro maintains 51-100 employees, no disclosed revenue, no patents beyond a registered SpillTech distribution trademark, and operates as a stable, mature small industrial business rather than a venture-backed growth company.
