What is the filter made of?

Asked a year ago
The filter used in Brita products is made of multiple layers of materials. The main component of the filter is activated carbon, which is derived from coconut shells, and it helps reduce chlorine taste and odor, as well as impurities like copper, mercury, and cadmium. Additionally, the filter contains an ion exchange resin that effectively removes heavy metals such as lead and reduces limescale buildup. The outer casing of the filter is made of nonwoven polypropylene, which helps to capture sediment and particles. Brita filters are carefully designed to provide cleaner and great-tasting water by effectively removing contaminants and improving its quality.
