Engineers across the world trust Porex for porous filter solutions to address complex design and engineering challenges in the consumer and recreational water filtration industries. With decades of material science expertise and filtration application experience, our global operations ensure high reproducibility and reliability of filter products throughout the supply chain.
POREX® filters are used in a variety of water filtration products for drinking water systems in order to:
Carbon Block Pre-Filters
Enhance pre-filtration with longer life and durability
Media Support Tubes
Maximize filtration efficiency and structural integrity
Melt Blown Filter Cartridges
Reliable performance in the most challenging environments
Media Support Disks
Maximize filtration efficiency and lifespan of filtration cartridges
Sports Water Bottle Filters
Enhance taste through sustainable filtration
Enhance pre-filtration with longer life and durability
POREX® carbon block pre-filters – also called seamless filters –
offer advanced pre-filtration. Thick polyolefin walls allow for maximum
flow and high efficiency, quickly removing sediment particulates from
water. The seamless, unified design enables easy assembly while
eliminating the risk of downstream contamination due to seam failure.
With fully customizable dimensions, fiber sizes, pore sizes and densities, our carbon block pre-filters:

Enhance taste through sustainable filtration
POREX® carbon filters for water bottles are designed to remove sediment, lead, and chlorine in a single-pass filtration process that meets NSF Class I standards. With its optimal pore size that minimizes flow resistance, our carbon filters also allow enough residence time for removal of chlorine and lead.
Designed for consumer water bottles, our carbon filters offer an easy, effective way to filter out pollutants and generate clean drinking water for consumers.
Available in custom-designed geometries and filter media, our water bottle filters:
System Performance* | |
Filtration Efficiency | >99% Particle removal down to 10µ |
Chlorine Removal | Up to 93% Removal of Chlorine (average removal over 50 gallons = 81%) |
Mercury (Heavy Metal) Removal | Average Removal >50% for 40 gallons† |
Dimensions: | 2.5″ (L) x 0.875″ (OD)/0.535″ (ID) 6.4 cm (L) x 1.1 cm (OD)/0.7 cm (ID) |
*POREX® Carbon Filters have been tested by internal and third-party laboratories @ 0.3 L/min flow. |
