Drug residues endanger our waters and your tap water.

Medication or residues thereof are sometimes excreted in urine or even disposed of in toilets and end up in the sewage system. Many of these substances cannot be completely removed by conventional treatment processes in sewage treatment plants. 

These residues end up in our waters and also in drinking water reservoirs, posing a considerable risk to the environment and our health.

Our Filbec filter offers a solution and guarantees you safe drinking water without discoloration, undesirable tastes and odours, dangerous heavy metals, bacteria, viruses, chlorine, chloramines, microplastics, pharmaceutical residues, hormones, pesticides, herbicides or other chemical contaminants and harmful substances.

Incidentally, correct disposal of unused medicines is essential to prevent water pollution. It is recommended to always follow the instructions of the pharmacies for disposal.
