⛲ The Ecofiltro maintenance kit is specially designed to help you keep your Ecofiltro in optimal condition, ensuring fresh and clean water filtration.

This kit includes:
- a natural loofah sponge
- a coconut-based cleansing soap
- a bamboo cleaning brush with sisal bristles

The entire maintenance kit is environmentally friendly and designed to work perfectly with Ecofiltro systems.

⛲ Why choose this maintenance kit ?

- Environmentally friendly materials: All components are made from sustainable materials, in line with Ecofiltro's commitment to the environment.

- A complete interview: This kit includes everything you need to maintain the cleanliness and efficiency of your Ecofiltro.

The kit is designed to be used with the filtering unit, the container, and the lid, thus offering an all-in-one solution for regular maintenance.

⛲ Maintenance instructions:

Regular maintenance of your Ecofiltro is essential for it to continue providing clean and fresh water.

Follow the steps below to maintain your Ecofiltro using the maintenance kit specially designed for this purpose:

1. Cleaning of the filtration unit

- Wet the natural loofah sponge.
- Gently scrub the filter unit with the loofah sponge, focusing on removing any residue or buildup.
- Rinse the filtering unit thoroughly with drinking water.

2. Cleaning the container and the lid

- apply the coconut cleansing soap.
- Using the bamboo cleaning brush, spread the coconut soap over the container and the lid.
- Gently rub the surfaces in a circular motion to remove stains and residues.
- Rinse thoroughly with potable water to remove all the soap.

3. Drying and reassembly

- let all the components air dry completely.
- Reassemble the Ecofiltro once all the parts are dry and ready for use.

For optimal performance, repeat this maintenance routine every 3 to 6 months, depending on your usage and the hardness of the water. Regular maintenance will help extend the lifespan of your Ecofiltro and maintain the quality of your filtered water.

Note : it is important to be particularly careful when cleaning the clay filter and to use only the loofah fiber sponge with the utmost caution. Scrubbing the filter with the bamboo handle brush and sisal bristles could be too abrasive and thus damage the filter by removing the thin layer of clay that covers the activated charcoal inside, leaving it exposed.

ECOFILTRO

The adventure begins with Dr. Fernando Mazariegos in Guatemala in the 1990s. He is tasked by the IDB (Inter-American Development Bank) to find a simple, sustainable, and economical way to purify water for the populations of Latin America who do not have access to this vital resource.

He closely observes indigenous populations and makes it a point to use local resources and technologies. After numerous trials in his research center, he develops the Ecofiltro filter: "we did not invent filtration, but we worked on technological development applied to the use of materials and substances that enhance the process."

The EcoFiltro was chosen by Corentin de Chatelperron and Caroline Pultz, with whom we are currently collaborating. Caroline and Corentin are the creators of the Desert Biosphere and are featured by the Low Tech Lab in this video:

Due to its simplicity and low cost, it quickly gains popularity; however, the project, funded solely by donations, cannot develop. That is why, in 2000, Ecofiltro became a socially responsible non-profit organization that contributes to improving living and health conditions while combating environmental pollution from plastic.
A few years later, in 2009, the organization transformed into a socially responsible company and expanded its production to other regions of the world. The profits generated in wealthier countries allow access to purified water in regions that cannot afford it.
Between 2014 and 2022, this operation allowed for the distribution of 33,751 Ecofiltros to 6,210 schools.

In 2020, the company obtained BCorp certification, a recognition of all their efforts made to combat the consequences of climate change and their unwavering social and environmental commitment.
BCorp is one of the most important labels that certifies companies aiming for a benefit for all, socially, environmentally, and economically, with full transparency towards the public.

Today, Ecofiltro is present worldwide and continues its fight for ecological, economical, plastic-free access to 100% pure filtered water.

The entire kit includes:

- a natural loofah sponge 11cm x 7cm, made from 100% natural loofah fibers and ideal for gently scrubbing the filtering unit.
- a coconut-based cleaning soap, 7.5cm x 6.5cm, made from 100% natural coconut and perfect for cleaning the container and the lid.
- a bamboo cleaning brush, dimensions 7.8cm x 5.5cm, featuring a durable bamboo handle and sisal bristles, ideal for scrubbing the container and lid.
