Description
Glass filter media is a type of advanced manufacturing technology that is made from recycled plate glass. It is slightly negatively charged, which attracts particles that are released when the filter is washed. This media is used to start taking advantage of the benefits of glass filter media, such as reducing backwash time, approximately 50% savings, and fewer backwashes needed. Additionally, glass filter media has a longer life span than traditional filter media and is more durable. It also has increased quality and hygiene benefits, reduces the presence of bacteria, and does not produce biofilm. Finally, glass filter media is environmentally friendly and helps facilities perform more efficiently.
