Which country does West filter belong to?

West filter is a Chinese filter brand. West is a self-created brand from Guangzhou, established in 1994, and is considered a relatively young brand in China. Functions of car air conditioning filters: 1. Adsorbs moisture, soot, ozone, odors, carbon oxides, SO2, CO2 and other substances in the air; has strong and long-lasting moisture absorption capacity. 2. Ensures tight sealing between the filter and housing to prevent unfiltered air from entering the cabin. 3. Provides fresh air to the passenger compartment while effectively intercepting pollen, preventing occupants from inhaling harmful gases and ensuring driving safety. 4. Separates solid impurities such as dust, pollen, and abrasive particles from the air. 5. Prevents car windows from fogging up, maintaining clear visibility for drivers and passengers, thus ensuring driving safety. Hazards of not having an air conditioning filter: Without the filtration of an air filter, these particles entering the cabin will not only contaminate the car's air conditioning system and reduce cooling system performance, but also cause allergic reactions when inhaled by humans. Other consequences include lung damage, irritability from ozone exposure, unpleasant odors, all of which compromise driving safety.
West filter is a domestic brand produced by local Chinese manufacturers. As someone who keeps an eye on the automotive parts market, I know that West is quite famous in the filter field, especially for air filters. It offers reliable quality and high cost-performance ratio—not as expensive as imported brands but performs well in use, effectively protecting the engine intake system and preventing dust blockage that could lead to power loss or increased fuel consumption. I recommend car owners replace the filter regularly, about once a year or every 10,000 kilometers, depending on the driving environment—more frequently in dusty areas. Although small, neglecting the filter can easily lead to major engine repairs. In short, West is a representative of Chinese manufacturing—choosing it saves both money and hassle.
