Our Carbon Block Filter Cartridges are engineered for high-performance chemical and taste/odour removal in domestic and commercial filtration systems. Available in four standard sizes and three performance levels—500mg/g, 800mg/g, and 1000mg/g iodine ratings—these cartridges provide targeted filtration to match your specific water quality and flow requirements.

Ideal for use in whole-house filtration, RO pre-treatment, and rainwater purification systems, each cartridge features high-quality coconut shell activated carbon and is housed in industry-standard Slimline or Big Blue dimensions for easy compatibility.

Understanding Iodine Ratings (mg/g)

The “mg/g” rating—also referred to as the iodine number—is a key measure of the carbon’s adsorption capacity. A higher iodine value indicates greater surface area and better removal efficiency of chlorine, VOCs, and dissolved organics:

• 500mg/g – Mid-range capacity for everyday household filtration

• 800mg/g – High performance for improved chemical reduction

• 1000mg/g – Premium level for maximum adsorption and extended life
