Malatec filtration balls are a practical replacement for filtration sand for sand pumps and filtration systems. Thanks to their structure, they provide a fast pool-water cleaning effect, have a better filtration capacity down to 1 micron, and thanks to lower resistance they support easier water flow as well as lower pump energy consumption.
Fine filtration down to 1 micron
The structure of the balls makes it possible to capture even very small impurities (down to 1 µm), so the water can be visibly cleaner than with standard sand filtration.
Lightweight, easy handling and quick to use
The balls are lightweight and practical when topping up the filtration. They are designed for sand pumps/filtration and are supplied hygienically vacuum packed.
Reusable and long service life
The balls can be reused – they are machine washable at 50 °C and also suitable for a tumble dryer. The stated lifespan is 3–4 years of use.
Looking for an easy way to keep the water in your garden pool cleaner and clearer? Malatec sand-filter filtration balls are lightweight, hygienically packed, and easy to handle. Compared to sand, they create less resistance, which can contribute to smoother filtration operation.
