MicroDisc

Drinking water can contain substances that may affect its taste, odour or overall quality – such as chlorine, limescale or trace metals. By filtering tap water, these elements can be reduced, resulting in a better taste and an improved drinking experience. At the same time, essential minerals like calcium and magnesium are retained.

Our BRITA filtration solutions are designed to provide reliable filtration performance, while being easy to use, install and integrate into everyday life.

Depending on your needs and lifestyle, different BRITA filtration technologies offer tailored benefits:

• Some filter types are designed to reduce limescale and metals such as copper and lead, helping to protect appliances and improve water taste
• Others focus on reducing taste- and odour-impacting substances, such as chlorine, while preserving beneficial minerals
• Filter lifespan and capacity can vary, with options designed for daily use over several weeks or for higher water volumes on the go
  

BRITA offers a variety of filtration solutions across different product categories, including:

• Water filter jugs with replaceable filter cartridges
• Bottles and systems using compact filter discs or filter cartridges
• Other integrated filtration solutions tailored to different use cases
  

This allows you to choose the solution that best fits your individual preferences, usage habits and filtration needs.

The BRITA MicroDisc uses Pure-Taste-Technology to effectively filter unwanted substances while allowing minerals to pass through.

The main ingredient of the BRITA MicroDisc is fine grained activated carbon made from natural coconut shells that contains a highly porous structure. This porous structure has a very large inner surface with millions of tiny pores that trap and lock away unwanted substances such as chlorine and other taste impairing substances, as well as micro particles (≥ 15 μm). The result is fresh and pure-tasting water.

To create the solid disc of the MicroDisc, a fleece and a small amount of a binder is required to bind the granulated activated carbon together. All ingredients of the BRITA MicroDisc have been tested to food-grade quality. 

Yes, minerals can pass through the BRITA MicroDisc water filter. It's designed to filter unwanted substances (e.g. chlorine, micro particles and trace impurities) and at the same time allow minerals (e.g. calcium and magnesium) to pass through.
