Active Pure Xtra
At the heart of the Active Pure Xtra Filter is high-performance activated carbon, a trusted filtration technology for removing chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pesticides, herbicides, and unpleasant tastes & odors. Activated carbon works through adsorption, where contaminants adhere to its highly porous surface, resulting in cleaner, fresher-tasting water.
However, the Active Pure Xtra Filter goes beyond standard carbon filtration, integrating KDF (Kinetic Degradation Fluxion) and GAC (Granular Activated Carbon) technologies to provide enhanced contaminant filtration, extended filter life, and superior drinking water protection.
What Sets the Active Pure Xtra Filter Apart?
🔹 Powerful Heavy Metal Filtration with KDF Technology
KDF media initiates oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions that actively target and neutralize heavy metals such as aluminium and lead.
✅ Converts harmful metals into less soluble forms
✅ Precipitates (binds) contaminants so they don’t pass through
✅ Prevents lead and other metals from leaching into drinking water
🔹 Bacteriostatic Protection for a Fresher, Longer-Lasting Filter
KDF not only removes heavy metals but also inhibits the growth of bacteria, algae, and fungi, preventing microbial buildup inside the filter and ensuring consistent, safe filtration over time.
🔹 GAC (Granular Activated Carbon) for Unmatched Purity
The GAC stage efficiently adsorbs organic compounds, chemicals, chlorine, and unpleasant tastes & odors, delivering water that is noticeably cleaner, healthier, and better-tasting.
Why Choose the Active Pure Xtra Filter?
✔️ More Than Just Carbon Filtration – Multi-stage protection with KDF & GAC
✔️ Heavy Metal Removal – Effectively filters aluminium, lead, and other contaminants
✔️ Bacteria & Algae Inhibition – Prevents microbial buildup, extending filter lifespan
✔️ Chlorine & Chemical Reduction – Eliminates unwanted chemicals for better taste
✔️ Ultra-Fine Filtration (1 Micron) – Captures even the smallest impurities
✔️ Certified Cyst Reduction – Provides an extra layer of safety for your drinking water

Active Pure Xtra 1 Yr - Slim
The Filter is a high-performance device designed to deliver excellent quality drinking water by effectively removing chlorine, aluminum, heavy metals, and other contaminants. It incorporates two distinct purification media for comprehensive water treatment. The first stage features versatile KDF oxidation/reduction media that effectively removes heavy metals, trace metals (such as aluminum and lead), and chlorine while extending the lifespan of the second granular carbon stage. The KDF media is bacteriostatic, inhibiting bacterial growth within the filter bed.
The second stage utilizes coconut carbon, which is highly efficient in removing chlorine, organics, and chemicals, while also improving taste and eliminating odors. This stage contributes to the overall enhancement of water quality, ensuring a refreshing and enjoyable drinking experience. With its dual-stage filtration system and combination of KDF and activated carbon media, the Filter provides reliable purification, making it an excellent choice for obtaining clean and great-tasting water.
