General information

Short Summary
A European cooperative of a German, a Dutch and an Austrian company specializing in manufacturing, engineering and marketing developed a special flexible and sustainable drinking water filter for a variety of applications and sectors and is looking for commercial partners such as importers, wholesalers, or distributors.
Full Description
A German company cooperates with partners from Austria and the Netherlands to offer a flexible drinking water filter designed to ensure clean and safe drinking water. With state-of-the-art filtration technology, the filter system effectively removes contaminants, microorganisms, bacteria, virus, germs and other impurities. It is particularly suitable for use in households, fincas, tiny houses, yachts, camping, or other outdoor activities.

The filter is the result of a successful collaboration between several companies, each contributing expertise in their respective fields:

The manufacturer of the filter, brings extensive experience in water treatment. The company focuses on sustainable technologies and environmentally friendly solutions. Their innovative approaches to filtration help improve the quality of drinking water while minimizing environmental impact.
The engineering firm provides essential technical support in the development of the filter. With expertise in engineering and environmental technology, ensures that the filter meets the highest technical standards and is user-friendly.
Marketing experts ensure that the flexible drinking water filter reaches customers effectively through its distribution channels, thereby supporting widespread access to this innovative solution for clean drinking water.

The module consists of a highly flexible hose with integrated ultrafiltration membranes. For drinking water production, it only needs to be connected between the booster pump and consumers. Due to the flexibility of the hose, installation is possible even in narrow spaces. The water to be treated flows from the pump into the module by means of upstream pressure and is cleaned by the membrane fibers in the hose. Per module 15 l of drinking water can be obtained per minute (depending on pressure, temperature and raw). water).

The treatment capacity is up to 15 l/min (depending on pressure, temperature and raw water composition). The Hollow fiber membrane has an average pore diameter of around 0.020 micrometers (50x smaller than Legionella).

Unit leak tests are according to ASTM D 6908:2006; Standard Practice for Integrity Testing of Water Filtration Membrane Systems. Membrane and materials used comply with European Regulation EU No. 10/2011 and No. 1935/2004 for use for drinking water.
