The MATRIKX® + 5 filter is manufactured with KX®’s proprietary extrusion process, and is made from coconut shell carbon which creates what many believe to be a sweeter tasting water. Because of the unique pore structure of this carbon, it is well-suited for chemical adsorption, including VOCs, and chlorine taste and odor. MATRIKX® + 5 filters provide 2 μm nominal particulate filtration and extended life as a fine sediment filter.

MATRIKX® + 5 filters consist of activated carbon particles fused into a uniform block with enhanced adsorptive capacity and efficiency. MATRIKX® + 5 filters flow in a radial (outside-to-inside) direction, providing increased dirt-holding capacity and low pressure drop. Unlike granular activated carbon (GAC) filters, MATRIKX® + 5 cartridges will not channel or bypass due to the extreme uniformity of their extruded activated carbon core. Service life of the MATRIKX® + 5 filter is greatly extended by a pre-filtration medium.
