The CARBON block is manufactured in an "environmentally friendly" way.
It filters very fine particles from drinking water such as
Giardia and cryptosporidium.
Giardia and cryptosporidium are two of the most common causes worldwide of
an intestinal parasite infection.
Giardia is a diarrhoeal disease caused by a single-celled,
microscopic parasite called Giardia intestinalis (also known as Giardia lamblia).
As soon as an animal or person becomes infected with Giardia intestinalis, the
parasite continues living in the intestine. Because the parasite is protected by
an outer layer, it can survive outside the body and in the environment for a
long period of time.
Coconut shell activated carbon has an exceptionally high micropore density, which means it can absorb more contaminants per gram. Activated carbon blocks that
are made from 100% coconut shells are of higher quality than conventional
activated carbon blocks from mass production in China.
Carbon blocks made from coconut shells are free from chemical additives or binders. Low-cost activated carbon blocks from China contain additives and binders that could have a problematic effect on your drinking water.
Due to
the high adsorption capacity, coconut shell activated carbon
is more effective at removing chlorine, heavy metals, pesticides,
organic chemicals and unpleasant odours.
Our activated carbon blocks made from coconut shells not only offer better filtering properties, but are also more environmentally friendly and sustainable.
