Celrith European Range Hood Filter with Activated Carbon is a combined grease and odour filter for recirculating range hoods. It captures heavy grease and cooking fumes with an aluminium mesh and adsorbs odours such as cooking smells and spicy notes with an activated carbon layer. It suits open-plan kitchens, European-style wall-mounted or island hoods, and commercial kitchen exhaust systems. Celrith manufactures it in Zhongshan, Guangdong, China, with options for full customisation.
Every time you cook, the air fills with two distinct contaminants. The first is grease: fine oil droplets and sticky vapour that condense on surfaces, forming a film that traps dust and becomes difficult to remove. The second is odour: volatile organic compounds released by frying, grilling, and spices. In a recirculating hood, these contaminants are not vented outside; they pass through the filter and return to the room. Without effective filtration, they settle on cabinets, walls, and soft furnishings, and the kitchen smells of last night's dinner for hours.
This problem is especially noticeable in open-plan living areas, where cooking odours spread quickly. It also affects commercial kitchens, where multiple cooking stations generate continuous grease and fumes. The Celrith filter addresses both contaminants in a single replaceable unit.
When grease and odour are not captured at the source, the load transfers to the rest of the system. Grease accumulates on fan blades, motors, and ductwork, reducing airflow and forcing the motor to work harder. Over time, this can lead to overheating, increased energy consumption, and more frequent cleaning or repairs. Odour molecules circulate through the room and can be absorbed by fabrics and furniture.
In recirculating hoods, an ineffective filter means the hood is essentially moving contaminated air around. The result is a film of grease on nearby surfaces and persistent cooking smells. The Celrith filter is designed to relieve this load by combining mechanical grease separation with adsorptive odour control, reducing the burden on the fan and keeping the kitchen environment cleaner.
The filter uses a multi-layer construction: an aluminium foil micro-perforated mesh, flame-retardant polyester fibre, and a layer of high-quality granular or powdered activated carbon. The aluminium mesh captures heavy grease and oil particles, while the activated carbon adsorbs odour molecules. This dual-action design helps maintain airflow while removing both types of contaminants.
The outer frame is available in high-strength aluminium alloy profiles or stainless steel, with optional clips and handles to suit different hood models. Celrith offers 100% flexible customisation, so the filter can be sized and configured to fit specific appliances. The product is suitable for recirculating range hoods and helps prevent grease and odour from spreading through the kitchen.
Celrith's engineering team can assist with structure optimisation and sample confirmation, ensuring the filter meets the requirements of each application.

It removes heavy grease and oil particles through its aluminium mesh, and adsorbs cooking odours such as fumes and spicy smells with activated carbon. This dual-action design helps keep the kitchen air cleaner in recirculating hoods.
The aluminium mesh structure provides effective grease capture, and the exact efficiency depends on the specific configuration and operating conditions. For detailed performance data, please consult our technical team.
Yes, Celrith offers 100% flexible customisation. We can manufacture to your drawings or samples, including dimensions, layer count, mesh density, handle type, frame construction, and surface finish.
The MOQ for standard models is typically 500–1000 pieces, while customised models generally require 2000–3000 pieces. These figures can be negotiated based on the overall order.
Samples are usually available within 3–7 days. Bulk orders typically ship in 25–35 days, depending on quantity and customisation complexity.
Replacement frequency depends on cooking habits and usage intensity. In typical domestic use, we recommend checking the filter every 2–3 months and replacing it when grease buildup or odour breakthrough is noticed. Commercial kitchens may require more frequent changes.
Yes, it complies with UL 900 Class 1 / Class 2 fire safety test certification, ensuring flame retardancy for added safety in kitchen environments.
Yes, samples are available. Standard models can be provided free of charge with the customer covering shipping; customised samples incur a fee that is refundable upon bulk order. We encourage testing before purchase.
