Established on March 11, 2006, by CEO Jeon Hyeok-su, Micro One Co., Ltd. operates as a specialized environmental technology firm based in South Korea. The company’s name, meaning “not even one tiny dust particle will be missed,” reflects its core mission developed since its inception. Jeon Hyeok-su has guided the company's focus on addressing air quality challenges, evolving from a manufacturer of industrial filters to a comprehensive environmental solutions provider.
Micro One's business centers on developing and manufacturing advanced air purification technologies for a range of industrial clients. The company serves sectors such as power generation, waste incineration, steel, cement, petrochemicals, and pulp and paper. Its revenue is generated through the sale and installation of environmental plants and high-performance filter products. The company started as a domestic leader in industrial filter bags and has expanded its capabilities to include the entire engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) process for environmental facilities.
The product portfolio includes industrial waste incinerators, exhaust gas treatment systems, and power plant environmental equipment. A key product is the expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membrane, a high-performance filter material developed in-house and used in products like Gore-Tex. This material enables the filtration of particulate matter down to one micron. The company also produces De-NOx catalytic filters that simultaneously remove fine dust and nitrogen oxides, High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters, and Ultra Low Penetration Air (ULPA) filters for cleanroom environments. In January 2025, Micro One secured $5.1 million in a Pre-IPO funding round from investors including Kolon Investment and the Korea Development Bank (KDB), with plans for a KOSDAQ listing by 2026.
