KATALOX LIGHT ® is a new brand of revolutionary
advanced filtration media completely developed
in Germany. It‘s composition simply makes it
outstanding against the contemporary filter media
available in water treatment industries, like sand,
BIRM, Greensand Plus, Manganese Greensand etc.
KATALOX LIGHT ® is manufactured in Germany.
KATALOX LIGHT ® is engineered with unique MnO2
coating technique on ZEOSORB®, providing it
light weight, higher filtration surface, more service
life and more reliable performance (filtration
down to 3 µm) than any other existing granular filter
media.
KATALOX LIGHT ® is being used in numerous system
for residential, commercial, industrial and municipal
applications worldwide, for High level filtration, color
and odor removal, Iron, Manganese, Hydrogen sulfide
removal, efficient reduction of Arsenic, Zinc, Copper,
Lead, Radium, Uranium and other radionuclides and
heavy metals.
KATALOX LIGHT ® is ANSI/NSF 61
Certified for drinking water
applications and has met
the ANSI/
NSF 372 Lead free
compliance.
Advanced use
High concentration coating of MnO2 on the KATALOX
LIGHT ® surface (10%) is the biggest advantage
compared to any similar product available in the
market. This makes the oxidation and co-precipitation
of contaminants much more effective. For removal
of very high concentration of contaminant it‘s
recommended to use H2O2 as an oxidizer, which
provides accelerated catalytic oxidation on the
surface of the media. Conventional oxidizing agents
like chlorine or potassium permanganate also could
be used if required.

KATALOX LIGHT ® can be used for Arsenic, Radium,
Uranium removal but in these cases there is
requirement of Iron in the water. KATALOX LIGHT ®
system is designed with special iron dosing
technology which has many advantages over
Adsorbent media used for Heavy Metal removal.
