The Reason Behind the Katadyn Pocket Fame

Whenever we talk about water filters, only one label stands out above all the others and that's the Katadyn Pocket. This name appears just about every time water filters are mentioned, and even the famous Google agrees with this. We could observe that in almost every search, this name is present. Now, did it eventually occur to you as to what genuinely is with this brand that makes it so popular?

Allow me to point out two main reasons for this. First would be because of its exceptional function and second would be because of its unique visual features.

Because of its exceptional function

The Katadyn Pocket Water Microfilter performs better than all the other water filters because it features a ceramic filter that is impregnated with silver. This silver component is responsible for stopping the production of bacteria whenever the filter is not in use. It has a bacterio-static feature which lasts according to the half-life of the silver element. This is but a rare discovery that only the manufacturers of Katadyn has implemented well and of which several laboratory tests have proven true.

Also, this water microfilter has amazing filtering capabilities. It can sift microorganisms as small as 0.2 microns or 0.0002 millimeters in size. Examples of which are the bacteria coliform, cysts and even the famous Giardia. This is rather amazing because some other microfilters never reached the point in claiming to filter organisms that small.

And not only that, this pocket filter can also be used to take on as much as fifty thousand liters of untreated water before the ceramic filter needs to be changed. Just think about how long that would last if a single individual were make use of the equipment! To put it much simpler, if an average person were to consume 1 liter of water per day, then with three hundred and sixty five days a year, the pocket filter could probably last up to 137 years! Now this is way more than the warranty period of 20 years.

Because of its unique aesthetic features

The actual Katadyn Pocket Water Microfilter comes with an ergonomic handle that makes it so comfortable and easy to hold. Its base is also cushioned well so as to lessen the burden of pumping too hard. Lastly, it has a removable intake and outtake hoses which you can keep separately in another case for a much safer experience.

Now, with these points to consider, the Katadyn Pocket undoubtedly deserves all of the fuss that the media made about it.
