Whether your goal is to enhance skin and hair care, reduce scale buildup, or improve overall water clarity, we help you build the right filter combination for your product.
Filter Media Options and Their Applications

Ideal for general-purpose filtration and long-lasting performance in high-chlorine or metal-heavy water.
-
Clean, odor-free water; improved skin and hair condition; reduced scale buildup inside the showerhead.
Magnetic Energy Balls
Spherical ceramic balls infused with magnetic minerals that generate a weak magnetic field.
-
Alters the ionic structure of minerals like calcium and magnesium to reduce scale adhesion.
-
Used in shower filters to ease the effects of hard water without chemical softening.
-
Softer water feel, reduced spotting on shower surfaces, less buildup on skin and hair.
Tourmaline
A crystalline boron silicate mineral that emits far-infrared energy and generates negative ions naturally.
-
Energizes water, softens its feel, and adds beneficial minerals.
-
Popular in beauty and spa shower filters for its revitalizing effects.
