How Does It Work?

Smart Filtration Powered by Ceramic Technology

Our ceramic membranes utilize their naturally hydrophilic surface properties to efficiently separate water from contaminants. A slight vacuum pressure (0.1–0.2 bar) gently draws water through microscopic membrane pores while preventing fouling and blockage.

Thanks to the ceramic material’s resistance to oils and organic compounds, only clean water permeates through the membrane. Solids, pathogens, suspended particles, and impurities remain on the surface and are easily removed, ensuring reliable and long-lasting filtration performance.
