Benefits of Super Slim Active Paper™ Filter

The Filtrona Super Slim Active Paper™ filter combines the characteristics of two different filtration materials with the benefit of added activated carbon to provide a filter with a high level of tar and nicotine retention.

The distinct benefit of the Super Slim Active Paper™ filter:

• Flexibility to balance the taste and smoothness of the tobacco with quality filtration performance to suit the customer’s requirements

The Super Slim Active Paper™ filter also offers a number of other key benefits:

• High tar and nicotine retention
• Bio-friendly filter with a bio-friendly taste
• The activated carbon results in a reduction of vapour phase and semi-volatile components in mainstream smoke for a given tar delivery, without increased levels of ventilation
• Paper segment degrades quicker than segments constructed with cellulose acetate 
• Carbon on the paper's surface builds on the consumer's recognition of the advantages of activated carbon
• Brand identity through the use of activated carbon

Construction of Super Slim Active Paper™ Filter

The Super Slim Active Paper™ filter consists of two segments. The tobacco segment is constructed with paper onto which an activated carbon material has been applied, while the mouth segment is high-quality crimped cellulose acetate.

Both segments are enclosed in a plugwrap which can be either standard or porous depending on ventilation requirements. Alternatively, the mouth segment can use non-wrapped acetate for a high-quality end appearance. The filter segments are then wrapped in an outer plugwrap which can also be standard or porous depending on the required ventilation.
