Swimming Pool Filters
Improve backwash performance
Not all filtration systems function equally. Swimming pool filters from Porex can be used with sand filters or customized to meet your filtration system needs. To extend the life of the filter, these porous filters are backwashable, cleanable, reusable and facilitate flow to ensure optimal filtration efficiency.
Available in multiple design options including tube, pleatable sheet and radial-shaped filters, POREX® swimming pool filters:
- Ensure a long life–Open pleat design combined with a rigid structure allow for easy filter cleaning and backwashing.
- Increase flow rates – Maximized surface area helps optimize flow rates for maximum filtration efficiency.

Aquarium Bubblers
Control gas streams and oxygen in the aquarium
For fish tanks and aquariums, manufacturers trust POREX® aquarium bubbler components. Designed to efficiently introduce bubbles into water to optimize oxygen transfer into the aquarium tank.
Available in tubes and custom-molded shapes, our aquarium bubbler solutions:
- Consistently introduce gas streams–Bubblers ensure efficient and consistent introduction and diffusion of gas streams into the water.
- Optimize oxygen transfer – Even pore size distribution creates more uniform, small bubbles.
