Particularly PFAS and Fluoride. The filter is made from two types of activated carbon, combined with proprietary Zeolite minerals, Metal Scavengers and Activated Mineral Phosphates structurally bound with polymers into a highly porous block filter form. Made in the USA, the filter combines the highest FDA-compliant raw materials, with cutting-edge manufacturing methods resulting in unparalleled performance in an exclusively U.S.A.
