3M RV/Marine Water Filtration, one of the leading suppliers of water filters for recreational vehicles and boats, today announced that it has been named the exclusive supplier of recreational vehicle point of use interior water filtration for Winnebago Industries.

Effective on 2008 model year products, 3M will supply all interior water filters for Winnebago Industries recreational vehicles. Two 3M filters will be offered standard on several Winnebago and Itasca models and optional on all others. The USF-A and US-A1 filters are both installed under the sink and reduce chlorine taste, odor and sediment in water.

"As the leading United States manufacturer of motor homes, delivering the best available products to our customers is a top priority for our company," said George Wessling, Winnebago Industries Project Engineer. "3M water filters meet customer demands by providing cleaner and good tasting water, quick and simple replacement cartridges, and easy installation."

This is a great advance for 3M RV/Marine, said Thomas Holler, Director of Business Development, leading this project on behalf of 3M. "Winnebago Industries demands high standards of quality, and this exclusive arrangement provides further evidence that we have achieved our objectives in making 3M RV/Marine the industry leader in water filters."

The filter will be standard on the following Winnebago series RVs: Vectra, Tour, Journey, Adventurer, and Voyage. It will be optional on the Aspect, View, & Outlook series RVs. For the Itasca brand, the filter will be standard on the Horizon, Ellipse, Meridian, Suncruiser, & Sunrise models. It will be optional on the Cambria, Navion, and Spirit models.
