Everglades™

Advanced filtration to target wildfire smoke

Everglades™ reflects Metalmark's bioinspired material science heritage while supporting the broader goal: helping organizations prioritize, act, and verify improvement.

Up to 5x

Test reports confirm wildfire smoke removal up to 5x better than typical MERV 13 HVAC filters.

Role in the Metalmark platform

Filtration matters. Decisions matter more

Everglades™ should not be evaluated as a catalog item alone. Metalmark helps teams understand where advanced filtration fits, which spaces require attention, and how results will be verified.

Start with measured risk

Identify where filtration can support the broader indoor environmental strategy.

Use as a drop-in layer

Plan around existing filter dimensions and operating requirements.

Document the result

Pair filtration changes with a verification path that shows what improved.

A filtration component for measured smoke-readiness strategies

01 Materials science foundation

Informed by Metalmark's work with nature-inspired structures and advanced materials.

02 Enhanced smoke protection

Designed to improve wildfire smoke removal while maintaining a standard filter format.

03 System component

Supports targeted strategies within a broader indoor environmental intelligence platform.

04 Verification context

Intended to be paired with measurement, interpretation, and documented improvement.

Size

24 in x 24 in x 2 in

Flow limitation

2000 CFM @ 0.5 in H2O

Air filter rating

MERV 13 / 11A

Rated per ASHRAE 52.2 and Appendix J standard testing.

Installation

Drop-in replacement for filters of the same dimensions and grade; compatible with standard commercial HVAC systems.

Smoke performance

Up to 5x compared with typical MERV 13 HVAC filters.

Test note

Pine needle smoke used as a comparable analyte for wildfire smoke. Outperforms other MERV 13 filters on the market for smoke removal efficiency.

Build a filtration strategy around measured risk

Everglades™ belongs inside a readiness and verification workflow. Metalmark can help determine where enhanced filtration is the right action, how it should be implemented, and whether the expected improvement occurred.

Understand where filter upgrade belongs in your indoor environmental strategy

Start with an operating question, a representative site, or a smoke-readiness priority. Metalmark can help define the right first step.

Smoke readiness

For organizations planning for wildfire smoke exposure and site-specific vulnerability.

Filtration fit

For teams evaluating replacement strategies across spaces or locations.
