Frank Oberli

For Frank Oberli, this marks a return to SF-Filter. He previously led the company as CEO from 2017 to 2021 and knows our markets, as well as many of our customers and partners, personally. Before that, he spent more than 20 years in senior management positions with internationally leading companies in the filtration industry.

Once you're in filtration, you're in it for good. Filters may seem inconspicuous at first glance, but they can make all the difference. No industrial product can be manufactured or operated without filtration.
