An air filtration media comprises a single layer of randomly oriented and randomly intermingled synthetic, polymeric resin microfibers, staple fibers and bonding fibers. The microfibers, taken as a whole, have an average fiber diameter no greater than 5 microns and comprise between 50% and 90% by weight of the filtration media; the staple fibers, taken as a whole, have an average fiber diameter between 10 and 30 microns and comprise between 5% and 45% by weight of the filtration media; and the bonding fibers, taken as a whole, have an average fiber diameter between 10 and 30 microns and comprise between 5% and 25% by weight of the filtration media. The bonding fibers have thermoplastic surfaces with a lower temperature softening point than the microfibers and the staple fibers and bond the fibers together to form the air filtration media.
