Nano-Carbon Filtration

The Science

FLTRD removes up to 99% of contaminants while preserving beneficial minerals your body needs.

How It Works

  • 1. Fill Up Anywhere

    Fill your FLTRD bottle from any tap.

  • 2. Nano-Carbon Activates

    As water passes through the filter, contaminants are trapped at the molecular level.

  • 3. Drink Pure

    Enjoy clean, great-tasting water with essential minerals preserved.

Purity Without Compromise

You shouldn't have to wonder what’s in your water. Standard regulations keep water safe, but they don’t keep it pure.

  • Nano-Carbon Filtration: removes up to 99% of contaminants including lead, chlorine, and PFAS.
  • Eco-Friendly: replace 300+ single-use plastic bottles per year with one FLTRD bottle.
  • Instant Purification: no waiting. Drink clean, filtered water the moment you fill up.

Deep Dive

Take Control of Your Tap

Activated Carbon Block

Our primary filtration layer uses compressed activated carbon derived from coconut shells. This medium absorbs organic compounds, chlorine, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) through a process where contaminant molecules bind to the vast internal surface area of the carbon — up to 1,000 m² per gram.

Ion Exchange Resin

A secondary ion-exchange layer targets heavy metals like lead and mercury. Resin beads swap harmless ions (e.g., sodium or potassium) for harmful dissolved metals, reducing lead concentrations from as high as 150 ppb down to non-detectable levels — well below the EPA action level of 15 ppb.

Hollow Fiber Membrane

At the core of Nano-Carbon is a hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane with a 0.1-micron pore size. This physically blocks bacteria (≥ 0.2 µm) and parasitic cysts like Giardia and Cryptosporidium while allowing dissolved minerals such as calcium and magnesium to pass through.

PFAS Reduction

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) — often called "forever chemicals" — are found in water supplies all over the world. Our multi-stage process achieves up to 99% PFAS reduction, addressing both long-chain (PFOA, PFOS) and emerging short-chain compounds.
