What we do

FluidsControl has worked in filtration and fluid handling since 2006. In 2022 we started manufacturing: today we design and manufacture membrane and prefilter cartridges, coalescer cartridges, sanitary stainless steel filter housings, tanks and reactors, pressure vessels and single-use systems for the pharmaceutical and biotech, food and beverage, wine, Oil & Gas and power generation industries.

We work in two plants: an ISO 7 cleanroom for cartridges, bags and single-use systems, and a fabrication plant for housings, pressure vessels, containers, skids and tanks. That control of the process lets us configure every product for its application and answer with technical data.

This site brings together the Exova brand products. FluidsControl also represents third-party brands: for those products, visit fdscontrol.com.

In-house manufacturing

We design and manufacture in Argentina, in an ISO 7 cleanroom and in a metal fabrication plant, without outsourcing what is critical.

Factory engineering

The team that designs the product is the one that helps select it, configure it and adapt it to each process.

Verifiable data

Every datasheet publishes what the model catalog states: materials, operating conditions, retention and standards.

Regional presence

Our products take part in the production of vaccines, injectables and food at companies across the region.
