The history of cigarette filters

1925, Boris Avias conducted an experiment in the Ortmann factory of Bangzou Paper, England, and applied for a patent for manufacturing cigarette filter with crepe paper and cellulose filler. Since 1927, Avias has cooperated with FILTRONIC, a subsidiary of Bangzou, to produce cigarette filters. However, due to the lack of machinery for producing cigarettes with filters, the market acceptance rate is low. 1935, a British company began to develop a machine for filling cigarette filters. At 1954, the manufacturer introduced the machine more widely. Since then, doctors and researchers have published a series of research results that lung diseases may be related to smoking, and filters have begun to attract attention. Because filter-tip cigarettes are considered "safe", they have occupied a dominant position in the market since 1960s. The filter of traditional filter-tip cigarettes uses cork color. Recently, some manufacturers have adopted white cigarette holders. White cigarette holders can also be used to represent British mint cigarettes and American light cigarettes. At present, most cigarettes produced by factories are equipped with filters, and people who produce their own cigarettes can also buy them at tobacco dealers.

Making the production and assembly of filter into a commercial stage 1948, Fairchener established the first filter development and production factory in northeast England 1952, and Laurillard Company of the United States produced asbestos filter cigarettes 1956. The United States took the lead in developing filter cigarettes with activated carbon 1959, and China introduced the first filter. 1960, the first special filter-binary filter composed of cellulose acetate and Myria paper +0970, the United States, Czech Republic and other countries successfully studied polypropylene tow as filter material. 1980, filter cigarettes sold well in the world cigarette market, and China imported cigarette filters for the first time. 1982, China introduced the first cigarette with binary carbon filter.
