Industrial filter bags, engineered fibre to finish.
Masturlal is a filter bag manufacturer in Bengaluru, India. We engineer needle-felt bags from the fibre up to stop the dust and let the air through: ≤5 mg/Nm³ emissions, low pressure drop and longer bag life for cement, steel, aluminium and ferro-alloy plants.

A complete portfolio for dry dust collection.
Four product families, every media formulation custom-engineered to the dust, temperature and chemistry of the application.
Pulse-Jet Filter Bags
Custom-sewn or welded filter bags for high-energy reverse-pulse collectors in cement, steel, power and biomass plants.
Reverse-Air Bag Filters
Long, large-diameter bags for low-stress, continuous reverse-air baghouses, the workhorse format for cement kilns, alumina calciners, coal boilers and steel sinter plants.
Shaker Filter Bags
Lofted needle felts designed for low-pressure mechanical-shaker systems, where cleaning energy is gentle and the priority is mechanical durability over many cycles.
PleatMax Pleated Elements
Star and oval pleated cartridge elements that pack significantly more filtration area into the same cage footprint, built around our ComPac® felt technology.
A baghouse filters dust from air. Most bags forget the air.
Stopping dust is half the job. The other half is getting the air through as fast as possible, because every millibar of pressure drop is paid for by the fan, every hour the plant runs. Most buyers only track bag life. We engineer for all three.
Stop the dust
Ultra-microfibre surface layers catch fine particles at the felt surface: stack emissions of 5 mg/Nm³ or lower.
Let the air through
Dust stays on the surface and pulses off cleanly, so pressure drop stays low and the fan uses less power.
Last longer
Fibre, decitex, needling and finish matched to your dust and gas, so bags aren't over-cleaned or chemically attacked.
Microfibres, not membranes. PTFE membranes were made for air filtration and choke heavy dust loads. We engineer ultra-microfibres of 13–15 µm into the surface instead, specified by fibre decitex and needling for your process.
Every step, under one roof.
We don't buy felt. We make it. From scrim weaving and fibre selection to needling, finishing and final sewn bag, our Bangalore plant runs the complete process end-to-end.
Application-led R&D
Felt design and fibre composition are built around your dust profile: pH, temperature, particle fineness, abrasiveness.
European-grade machinery
Five Dr. Fehrer (Austria) needle looms, some customised, with widths from 1.2 m to 3.3 m, alongside in-house carding lines.
One integrated Bangalore plant
A stand-alone facility with scrim weaving, hardware, felt and sewing all under one roof.
Fifty-five years of measurable performance.
Outcomes our customers measure in stack emissions, energy use and bag life, across cement kilns, sinter plants and coal boilers, etc.
Built for the world's heaviest processes.
From rotary cement kilns to alumina calciners, we engineer media that holds up where temperature, dust load and chemistry punish ordinary bags.
Cement
Rotary kilns, raw mills, clinker coolers, packaging plants
Steel
Sinter plants, blast furnaces, EAF dedusting, BOF gas cleaning
Power
Coal-fired boilers, biomass combustion, ash handling, FGD
Ferro-alloys
Ferro-silicon and submerged-arc furnace fume
Aluminium
Alumina calciners, smelters, plus copper, zinc and lead
Process & Other
Foundry, fertiliser, asphalt, food & tobacco, MDF and sawmills
From dust profile to delivered set.
Send us your operating conditions. We engineer the media, send a sample swatch, manufacture in-house and support the installation.

Filter bag questions, answered.
What does Masturlal manufacture?
Masturlal Pvt Ltd manufactures custom needle-felt filter bags and pleated filter elements for dry dust collection: pulse-jet bags, reverse-air bags, shaker bags and PleatMax pleated elements. It also supplies filter cages, venturis and Goyen and Mecair pulse valves.
Where are Masturlal filter bags made?
At a single vertically integrated plant on Bannerghatta Main Road, Arekere, Bengaluru, India. Felt, scrim, hardware, finishing and sewing are all done in-house. The company was founded in 1971.
What stack emissions can Masturlal filter bags achieve?
Masturlal filter media is engineered to meet stack emissions of 5 mg/Nm³ or lower, roughly half the typical industry norm. It gets there with ultra-microfibre (13–15 µm) surface layers rather than PTFE membranes, so emissions fall without choking the airflow.
Which filter media should I use for high-temperature dust collection?
It depends on gas temperature and chemistry. Polyester suits up to 150 °C, PPS up to 190 °C, meta-aramid (Nomex) up to 204 °C, P-84 polyimide up to 240 °C and fibreglass up to 260 °C. Ultra-microfibre surface layers add fine-particle capture and easy cake release.
Does Masturlal export filter bags?
Yes. About 30–35% of Masturlal's turnover comes from exports, mainly to the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Turkey), Bangladesh and Southeast Asia (Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam), with installations in 40+ countries.
What information do you need to quote filter bags?
Collector type, bag diameter and length, quantity, gas temperature, dust chemistry, moisture, particle size, your current bag specification and your emissions target. An application engineer replies within one working day, usually with a recommended media spec within two.
Which industries does Masturlal mainly serve?
Cement, steel, aluminium and ferro-alloy (including ferro-silicon) plants are the core, followed by coal-fired power, biomass, non-ferrous smelting, foundry, asphalt and process industries.
Is Masturlal ISO certified?
Yes. Masturlal manufactures to ISO 9001 (quality management) and ISO 14001 (environmental management).
