Shungite

Shower filter - energy for body and mind

Fill the Alb Filter housing with our shungite (shungite or shungite charcoal) cartridge - filled with the rare and almost 600 million year old black shungite rock.

In anti-ageing research, shungite is sometimes referred to as the "fountain of youth". The hollow spherical carbon type fullerene has been researched very little, but is said to have a positive influence on the ageing process of the skin1.

In addition to its absorption and catalytic properties, shungite also has bactericidal properties2. The number of microbes in water filtered with shungite can be up to twelve times lower than in conventionally filtered water, reducing turbidity and foreign odors. Test the water from the primary rock shungite!

Note: The properties of shungite are based on the experience of many users and the effect is still largely unexplored.

Binding of free radicals

Due to its molecular structure, shungite is said to be able to absorb and bind free radicals, which are partly responsible for the skin's ageing process.

Adsorptive, catalytic and bactericidal

Studies by Krutous and Rysev, Khadartsev3 attribute high adsorptive, catalytic and bactericidal activity to shungite.

Cartridge change only twice a year

Structure of the Shungit water filter cartridge

Three shift system

  • Filter layer: PP coarse sediment fleece
    On the inlet side, this fleece retains coarse pollutants such as rust, pipe abrasion or similar.
  • Filter layer: Shungite granulate
    High-quality pre-cleaned shungite from Karelia
  • Filter layer: PP fine sediment fleece
    Used to retain the filter medium and for the final fine filtration of suspended particles.
