Continental Filters
Power System in Johannesburg

Continental Filters delivers cost effective hydraulic oil filtration solutions in the manufacturing and mining industries, conforming to ISO standards. We clean your oil while your hydraulic power pack/machine is in full production avoiding unnecessary down time, leading to loss of production.
The cause of up to 80% of all machine break downs on a hydraulic system can be traced back to debris – dirt - in your hydraulic oil.
Remember!.
If you wish to know the level of contamination in your oil we can sample the oil for you and have it analyzed by an independent laboratory such as Wearcheck.
Should you ever get water into your hydraulic oil, we can remove it with our mobile vacuum dehydrator.
With our mobile filtration units we come to you, the customer.
So do not delay and call us now for a free quotation and/or a free oil sample.

Continental Filters has its roots in Austria where Hans Inschick started an oil filtration service in the late 1990’s in his native town of Villach, Carinthia, a province of Austria. From humble beginnings he was able to build a successful business, providing his service to the local industries such as saw mills, quarries, plastics industry and others. He emigrated to South Africa in 2005 and decide to re-start his oil filtration idea here in Gauteng. Richard Wohlrab, the other member of the Close Corporation, joined from the start, and the business of marketing the service commenced. Austrian born and trained, Hans brings a vast experience in electro-mechanical engineering to the party. He has branched off into the field of oil filtration and has put his inventive/practical mind to good use by developing his one unique mobile oil filtration plant. Hans continues to for ever improve the design and efficiency of our mobile filtration unit, not only for the benefit of Continental Filters but for the benefit of our current and future customers.
