S and B Air Filter Tech - Honda Tuning Magazine

With over 30 years of experience, S&B has been designing OEM replacement air filters and intake systems using leading-edge technology and testing equipment. In their 60,000 square-foot facility located in Ontario, Calif., S&B has been able to manufacture some of the most technically advanced air filters on the market due to their in-house manufacturing plant and R&D lab.

Although S&B may not be a household name in the sport compact community, it is fairly well known among the truck and domestic car enthusiasts. S&B's proof of quality lies within their products, with a million-mile warranty to back them up. We were given a tour of their facility in Ontario to find out how they make air filters. Since S&B is the only air filter manufacturer with an in-house R&D center, we thought they would be a prime source in showing us how an air filter is made.
