It all starts
in the atmosphere

Our filtration technology was first used miles above the earth, on the International Space Station.

A NASA innovation

NASA is using ultra-thin filtration technology on board the International Space Station, turning urine and sweat into drinking water. Thanks to NASA’s Technology Transfer Program (SPINOFF), this innovation, less than a millimeter thick, is now available on Earth. The material uses electroadsorptive technology to attract and retain contaminants in water.

Our original filter

Less than a millimeter thick, the filter media is activated when exposed to water. Thanks to electro-absorption technology on a microscopically pulverized carbon bed, the material attracts and retains negatively charged particles and a whole range of contaminants found in water worldwide.

How the original filter works

Thanks to an electro-adsorption process, the filter material is activated when exposed to water. Its pores expand and attract, like a magnet, any negative particles that try to pass through, while allowing clean water to pass through easily.

Öko filter innovation

Our patent-pending FilterSure™ feature forces any backwash through a valve and back into the bottle to be filtered again. This process not only ensures that the filter is sealed and working properly, but also prevents you from drinking contaminated water.
