Purolator’s premium PureONE air filter and Purolator Classic air filter are designed to protect a vehicle’s engine against the onslaught of damaging dirt and pollutants during daily driving.

"An automotive engine takes in about 9-10,000 gallons of air for each gallon of fuel it consumes, and the smooth flow of clean, uncontaminated air is essential to ensure its peak performance and minimize long-term engine wear," said Ramon Nuñez, Director of Filtration for Bosch, joint venture owner of Purolator Filters, the leading supplier of oil, air, fuel, cabin, and transmission filters to the aftermarket in North America.

The PureONE air filter is 99.5 percent efficient and its Micronic filtration media offers twice the capacity of conventional filters to trap harmful contaminants that can enter and damage a vehicle’s engine.

The Purolator Classic air filter features a multi-fiber high-density media that is engineered and tested to trap 96.5 percent of harmful contaminants before they can enter and harm a car’s engine.

According to Nuñez, a dirty or clogged air filter reduces engine power, decreases throttle response and increases engine wear. A fresh, clean Purolator PureONE or Purolator Classic air filter not only helps improve vehicle performance, but also prevents long-term damage to the engine and costly repairs down the road. For best results, Nuñez advises changing a vehicle’s air filter every 12 months or 12,000 miles.

Purolator manufactures and supplies high quality automotive filters to the North American aftermarket and Original Equipment Manufacturers. Inventor of the automotive oil filter in 1923, Purolator has, since then, pioneered more than 40 ‘firsts’ in the filtration industry. In fact, the first automotive oil filter was called a ‘Purolator,’ short for ‘pure oil later.’ Currently, the Purolator brand has more than 2,000 part numbers for automotive, light truck and heavy-duty applications. Now part of the Bosch umbrella of automotive aftermarket products within NAFTA, Purolator’s advanced aftermarket filters include:
• PureONE and Purolator Classic oil filters
• PureONE and Purolator Classic air filters
• BreatheEASY cabin air filters
• The ‘forgotten filters,’ including transmission filters, fuel filters, breathers and PCV valves.
