Description
AFM Glass Filtration Media is a highly efficient and cost-effective replacement for sand in filtration applications. It is made from a specific glass type and processed to have a high surface area, making it negatively charged and able to adsorb organics and small particles. It is also self-sterilizing due to its high redox potential. AFM is the only activated glass filter media available and is certified under various regulations. Its benefits include resistance to bio-fouling, twice the filtration efficiency of sand, a short pay back period, long lifespan, and ecological and economical solutions.
Replaces sand in all filtration applications. AFM is manufactured from a specific glass type and processed to obtain the optimum particle size and shape. It is then activated to increase the surface area by 300 times over crushed glass or sand.
The high surface area is negatively charged (zeta potential) to adsorb organics and small particles. It also has permanent metal oxide catalysts creating a high redox potential to make AFM self-sterilizing.
AFM is the only activated glass filter media available, and is more efficient and cost-effective than any other filtration media. AFM is certified under Regulation 31 in the UK and International NSF61.It is also in compliance with European Water Directive (98/83/EC) & (80/778/EEC).
