Description
Activated Glass Filter Media Grade 2 (1.4 – 2.0 mm) 20kg is an advanced, environmentally friendly filtration media manufactured from high-purity recycled glass. Engineered to outperform traditional silica sand, it delivers superior filtration, improved water clarity, and enhanced system efficiency.
Its activated surface and angular particle design capture suspended particles more effectively while reducing channeling and limiting biofilm formation within the filter bed. This results in cleaner, healthier water, reduced maintenance, and lower operating costs.
Suitable for swimming pools, drinking water treatment, borehole filtration, irrigation systems, industrial filtration, and wastewater treatment, Activated Glass Filter Media provides a significantly longer service life than conventional silica sand while reducing water, energy, and chemical consumption.
