The CYST SD 1 micron 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 of intestinal parasitic infection worldwide.

Giardia and Cryptosporidium are the most common protozoa in water tanks, e.g. on boats, yachts, motorhomes and caravans, camper vans, etc.

Giardia is a diarrhoeal disease caused by a single-celled microscopic parasite, Giardia intestinalis (also known as Giardia lamblia). Once an animal or person becomes infected with Giardia intestinalis, the parasite lives on in the intestine. Because the parasite is protected by an outer layer, it can survive outside the body and in the environment for a longer 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 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. Cheap activated carbon blocks from China contain additives and binders that could have a negative effect on your drinking water.

Due to their 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 filtration properties, but are also more environmentally friendly and sustainable.
