Spadoni’s Cardboard plate press-filter KAPPA consist of a frame made of stainless steel, plastic or polypropylene plates inside which the consumable filter elements are inserted, i.e., cartons or filter layers that are made of cardboard and cellulose. The exceptional absorbent properties of the materials allow the liquid to permeate and pass through the cellulose fibers, which retain impurities.

With the use of specific accessories, Spadoni KAPPA (F-20) carton plate filter presses can be adapted to work-always with excellent results-on a wide range of products.
