BUILT-IN TECHNOLOGY MAKES BETTER FILTERS DuPont™ filters are engineered with the latest in filter media technology to trap even microscopic particles that may affect indoor air quality. In addition, DuPont™ filters are able to do a better job of filtering the air in your home because the filters themselves are protected from the very airborne contaminants you want the filter to trap. Through a proprietary process, Microban® protection and Oguard™ are built-in to provide your filter with an added level of protection against contaminants that may adversely affect filter performance. |

| DuPont™ AIR FILTERS: HIGHER LEVELS OF FILTRATION FOR CLEANER AIR For every visible particle trapped in your furnace filter such as dust, dirt and mold, there are as many as 100 more that you cannot see, including bacteria, fungi, and pollen. If not stopped, these micro particles can flow through your HVAC system and into the air you breathe. Through independent lab testing, DuPont™ filters have been proven to trap a greater percentage of micro particles than conventional fiberglass filters. |

MICROBAN® PROTECTION FIGHTS GROWTH OF MICROBES ON AIR FILTERS Today's high performance filters are capable of trapping micro particles, including some as small as bacteria and fungi, and are designed to last up to 90 days. Unlike some inert particles which may be trapped in your furnace/air conditioner filter, bacteria and fungi are living organisms. Under certain conditions these micro organisms can multiply on unprotected surfaces, potentially resulting in odors and adversely affecting the filter media. The presence of Microban® product protection in the filter materials is not intended to affect airborne micro organisms, but can help reduce the uncontrolled growth of odor causing microbes on the surface of the filter material itself, where you need it the most. |

*Test performed under controlled laboratory conditions according to AATCC 100 protocol using untreated filter media and media with Microban® antimicrobial protection. Bacterial population on the untreated media increased significantly, while bacterial population on the media with Microban® protection was reduced significantly. This testing was performed to substantiate the media’s antimicrobial activity against non-public health organisms. Microban® protection inhibits the growth of microbes that can cause odors and adversely affect the filtration media. Test results on file |
