Benefits of Cavitec Flavour™

The Filtrona Cavitec Flavour™ filter comprises of two separate filter segments surrounding a cavity containing a flavoured granular additive. A unique characteristic of the Cavitec Flavour™ is that it allows the cavity to be filled with more than one granular additive.

The distinct benefits of the Cavitec Flavour™ filter are:

• Capability for high levels of additive loading – up to 25% the weight of the sepiolite granular additive

The Cavitec Flavour™ filter also offers a number of other key benefits:

• Industry leading volumetric cavity fill, ensuring optimisation of additives effect
• Can be designed to deliver ‘maracas’ sound when shaken
• Capability for high levels of additive loading
• Enhanced taste for all tobacco blends, especially low or ultra low tar brands
• Precise control of flavour level to ensure consistency of cigarette taste

Construction of Cavitec Flavour™

The Cavitec Flavour™ filter consists of a tobacco and mouth segment of high-quality crimped acetate surrounding a central cavity. The tobacco segment can be constructed from paper to further increase the flexibility of this filter. The cavity is filled with a flavoured sepiolite granular additive this can be combined with other suitable granular materials as desired.  Some of the flavours currently used include: apple, coffee, menthol, orange, peach and strawberry.

The outer two segments and the cavity are wrapped in plugwrap, which can be either standard or porous depending on ventilation requirements. The central cavity is created as the filter segments are wrapped in an outer plugwrap which can also be standard or porous depending on the required ventilation.

A wide range of configurations, lengths, circumferences, and additive loadings and types can be selected. This ensures each construction is precisely designed to suit the taste and filtration requirements of the customer and enhance a particular brand.
