Technology

How does our water filters work?

Our faucet fitlers remove more than 100 substances from tap water, trapping nanoparticles through adsorption and organic particles small as 1–2 microns in the carbon block. They also preserve the water's essential minerals (they don't reduce TDS). Here's the science behind our advanced 5-stage nanofiltering technology:

Nanofiltration

The illustration shows how our nanofiltration technology traps particles at the different filtration stages ranging from nanoparticles to micro and larger particles.

Advanced Nanofiltration technology in 5 stages

Both EcoPro and EcoPro Compact operate with 5-stage Advanced nanofiltration technology

EcoPro Technology in 5 stages

1- Polypropylene mesh

Wrapped around the carbon block, it filters out the largest micro-organisms, sediment, rust, scale and other impurities. It also prevents human hands contaminating the carbon block when replacing it.

2- Activated carbon adsorption

The activated carbon made from coconut shells removes organic chemical matter at nanoparticle level incl chlorine, chlorine byproducts (VOCs, THMs, HAAs, etc.), tastes, odours, pesticides, herbicides, PFAs and over 80 other contaminants. It also reduces the quantity of heavy metals like lead, copper and mercury, among others.

3- Carbon block microfiltering

The carbon block traps particles larger than 1–2 microns. This prevents microplastics, particles in suspension and most bacteria passing through the filter. It also prevents the rust particles and bacteria that build up in water pipes entering the filter.

4- Removes limescale and heavy metals

The carbon block houses our patented formula, the result of long years of research and of which we are extremely proud. It breaks down the mineral to prevent limescale forming, as well as trapping any remaining heavy metals.

5- Sieve

Filters out hair, sand, dirt and other impurities commonly found in household water pipes.

BottlePro technology

The BottlePro bottle filtration process is developed using the 4-stage Advanced Microfiltration technology. Optional BottlePro Ahlstrom Filter originally developed for NASA available for 99.99% bacteria removal.

BottlePro technology in 4 stages

1- Polypropylene mesh

Wrapped around the carbon block, it filters out the largest micro-organisms, sediment, rust, scale and other impurities. It also prevents human hands contaminating the carbon block when replacing it.

2- Activated carbon adsorption

The activated carbon made from coconut shells removes organic chemical matter,chlorine, chlorine byproducts (VOCs, THMs, HAAs, etc.), tastes, odours, pesticides, herbicides, PFAs and over 80 other contaminants. It also reduces the quantity of heavy metals like lead, copper and mercury, among others.

3- Carbon block microfiltering

The carbon block traps particles larger than 1–2 microns. This prevents microplastics, particles in suspension and most bacteria passing through the filter. It also prevents the rust particles and bacteria that build up in water pipes entering the filter.

4- Removes limescale and heavy metals
