If you don't want to use paper filters, you can use Swiss Gold, generic all-steel or cloth ones as well. Also there's Stanley's all steel pour-over.

When you want to go low or no plastics, there are many choices now.

Yeah there are plenty of metal filters if you're ok with not having a paper filter. If you do want a paper filter (for health reasons or because you prefer cleaner coffee) there aren't that many choices.

The funny thing is the default coffee filter I always get is marked as compostable on packaging. It's probably plastic-free as well, then.
