    European standards classify air filters into primary, secondary, semi-HEPA, and HEPA classes based on their performance in retaining particulate matter of different sizes. Primary filters labeled G1 through G4 are rated on their ability to retain over 5 micrometer particles. Secondary filters F5 through F9 are rated on retaining particles over 1 to 2 micrometers. Semi-HEPA filters H10 through H12 are rated on retaining over 0.5 micrometer particles. HEPA filters H13 and H14 are rated on retaining over 0.3 micrometer particles, with H14 retaining 99.995% of these particles.
