• 3 segments in 1 filter enables opportunities for innovative filtration solutions. A multitude of design possibilities available using different materials and adsorbents
• An activated carbon segment will result in a reduction of vapour phase and semi-volatile components in mainstream smoke without additional ventilation
• A segment containing activated carbon allows taste modification to all tobacco blends which leads to the characteristic smoother, cooler smoke
• High retention of tar and nicotine is achievable; this can be controlled through careful selection of segment construction and materials
• Clean run product offering a production environment free from contamination 

Construction of Super Slim Triple Segment filter

The Super Slim Triple Segment filter consists of an acetate mouth and tobacco segment combined with a centre segment of acetate loaded with activated carbon.

Each of the segments is enclosed in a plugwrap which can be either standard or porous depending on ventilation requirements. Alternatively, the tobacco and mouth segments 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.
