Fram

Fram filters The history of FRAM began 70 years ago, when Frederic Franklin and Edward Aldam, specialty chemists, created a filter replacement element. Most of the analogs were inferior to the new product in all respects - difficult to install, difficult to change, inconvenient to clean. The name of the unusual filter - FRAM (FRAM) was formed from a combination of the names of the inventors. Such “monsters” as “Studebaker”, “Cadillac” and others quickly allowed him to their conveyors. Initially, FRAM specializes only in the production of filters and has in the range of more than 3.5 thousand items. Today, these filters are made in 27 factories around the world. All products comply with the requirements of international standards ISO 9001 / QS 9000 and are certified in Russia. Filters are air, oil and fuel - even the modern driver knows this. And there are similar products for cooling systems, transmission units, brake actuators - even for glass washers! In general, the filter confidently occupies the first place among the most frequently replaced nodes. The business is profitable, therefore, both serious firms and not so much work for it ... Who is the most serious? In Europe, this is, of course, Mann und Hummel, Sogefi Filtration (trademark FRAM), Mahle, Hengst, and others. From the “Americans” we recall Donaldson, Wix, Fleetguard, etc. And there is also Japan, China, Taiwan, South Korea, Turkey - and, of course, Russia: we have about fifty companies with this profile ... It is clear that with such a number of filter manufacturers there is no filter shortage today, but everything still crawls into the domestic market whatever ... Therefore, the interest in knowingly good imports is clear, in particular to FRAM filters manufactured by Sogefi Filtration.
