Ceramic filters have a history as a means of filtering water dating back to the early 1800's when reliable drinking water sources were not available in most countries; that history and development from the early filters has allowed progression to today's ceramics. Our advances in the ceramic filtration manufacturing process result in a more effective and efficient means of treating a wide range of waterborne contaminants.  Our modern manufacturing practices give our ceramic elements a more controlled and consistent pore structure; the inclusion of silver gives the filter bacteriostatic properties which prevents mitosis (grow through) and are self-sterilizing.  Using ceramic filters as a means of treating and filtering water is not new, the benefits however remain for many reasons.

• A tried and true method of removing pathogenic bacteria and harmful cysts from treated and untreated waters alike.
• Cleanable, so instead of throwing away another filter when it clogs, you simply clean the ceramic to restore the flow rate, and save money.
• The tight porosity of the ceramic slows the water flow through the filter allowing for sufficient contact time with the core material allowing for better contaminant reduction.
• Ceramic shell protects the core media from premature failure due to bio-fouling (accumulation of microorganisms, algae, etc, on the surface).
• Retains healthy minerals; takes out the bad and leaves in the good.
• Ceramic filters can operate under low pressure making it a diverse filtration medium.

Our ceramic range is available with or without a core media which allows greater flexibility in choosing the right filter based on your water filtration needs.

All of our ceramic water filter elements and cartridges are US EPA Registered.  EPA Establishment Registration Number 067142-MI-001
