Nantong Deli Purification Equipment Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce that its High Circulation Efficiency Air Filter with Low Resistance — the company's core HAF-type pre-filter for professional LGR dehumidifiers — has been selected as a 2025 MEI Award winner in the Industrial Equipment & Components category.

The award is independently administered by Focus Technology Co., Ltd. (operator of Made-in-China.com) with industry partners including Bureau Veritas (BV), SGS, and TÜV. Winning products are evaluated for manufacturing quality, design innovation, export readiness, and compliance with international standards.

What Is the MEI Award?

The Made Excellence Innovation (MEI) Award is one of China's most visible independent product quality programmes for export-oriented manufacturers. Unlike in-house certifications, MEI evaluations are conducted by third-party industry bodies — audit partners include Bureau Veritas, SGS, TÜV, CASME, and CIDA.

The programme covers both light and heavy industry, with product showcase listings on Made-in-China.com (the world's second-largest B2B sourcing platform). Winning the MEI Award signals to international procurement teams that a product has passed external scrutiny across manufacturing capability, export trade standards, product quality systems, and service reliability — the same four pillars evaluated in Nantong Deli's Bureau Veritas factory audit (Report MIC-ASR2541690, Re-Audit PASS, November 2025).

The Winning Product: HAF High Circulation Efficiency Air Filter

The awarded filter is designed as a pre-filter for professional LGR (Low-Grain Refrigerant) dehumidifiers — the core equipment used in water damage restoration, commercial dehumidification, and industrial drying applications. It is the same product category used in Dri-Eaz LGR 700, LGR 2800i, Phoenix R200S, and AlorAir SLGR 1600X units.

Why Low Resistance Matters

LGR dehumidifiers are rated for their pints-per-day moisture removal capacity at a specific airflow volume — typically 250 CFM or higher. A filter that increases static pressure restricts this airflow, reducing moisture removal efficiency and risking evaporator coil icing, which can damage the compressor.

The HAF filter's open-channel electrostatic media design maintains pressure drop within specification even as the filter accumulates particulate load. This is the key technical distinction from standard pleated MERV filters — and the core engineering achievement recognised by the 2025 MEI Award.

"Pre-filter — HAF-type filter, available in various sizes and efficiency ratings tailored to customer requirements. Suitable for raw materials of all grades. Pressure drop control achieved by adjusting filter media thickness."

What This Award Means for OEM Buyers

For procurement managers, restoration equipment distributors, and private-label brands evaluating Chinese air filter suppliers, third-party recognition reduces sourcing risk. The MEI Award, validated by Bureau Veritas and SGS as industry partners, provides a documented quality signal beyond factory self-declaration.

Combined with Nantong Deli's existing credentials:

  • ISO 9001:2015 certified since 2005 (quality management system)
  • ISO 14001 environmental management certification
  • 53 authorized patents, including 3 utility patents for composite filter media construction
  • Bureau Veritas factory audit — Re-Audit PASS, November 2025 (Report MIC-ASR2541690)
  • National High-Tech Enterprise designation (China, 2016)
  • OEM supplier to Gree Electric, Freudenberg, Philips, and JIELV Group

The 2025 MEI Award adds independent product-level validation to Nantong Deli's factory-level certifications — giving procurement teams a more complete quality picture across both manufacturing process and finished product.
