What Tecfilter does

Tecfilter (TECFILTER, S.L.) is a privately held Spanish industrial filtration company founded in 2003 and headquartered in Porriño, Pontevedra. The firm designs, installs, maintains, and markets filtration processes and systems across fluid filtration (liquids and gases), solid separation and transport, and industrial ventilation. It operates two interconnected business layers: (1) a standardized product catalog of motor filters, industrial hydraulic filters, liquid-processing filters, HVAC and paint-booth filters (bag, cassette, HEPA-ULPA, frame), dust/fume/oil-mist capture filters, micron baskets, and ventilation/climate-control equipment, distributed primarily through its own e-commerce storefront; and (2) a custom-engineering offering delivered by an in-house engineering department that designs and installs bespoke systems such as ATEX-certified dust capture units, sandblasting-cabin filtration, cleanroom HVAC, plasma-cutting capture systems, granite polishing extraction, and high-temperature fume capture.

The company is the authorized Donaldson distributor for the northwest Iberian Peninsula and additionally carries Ultrafilter, DCE Torit, and Freudenberg Viledon lines. Its customer base spans automotive, food, beverage, biosanitary, chemical, metal, mining, wood, naval, renewable-energy, and public-works industries across Galicia and the broader Iberian Peninsula. Revenue mechanics combine transactional unit-priced filter sales (€5.59–€74.71 examples) served via e-commerce with quotation-based custom-engineering projects and multi-year service contracts served via direct phone/email sales. No public revenue, funding, or ownership disclosures are available; the firm has 11–50 employees and holds ATEX equipment certifications plus GDPR data-processing compliance.
