- Activated carbon absorbs chlorine, chemicals, pesticides, heavy metals, bad tastes and odours
- Colloidal silver coating kills bacteria
- Filters out dirt, giardia and cryptosporidium
- Absorbs chemicals, bad tastes and odours
- Purifies around 1000 L of water (less in hard water areas)
Nature purifies spring water through porous rocks. Australis filters use a ceramic filter that works the same way.
Test Results
Tests have been performed by Ecoscience and the Australian Government Analytical laboratories showing that the Coolaway filter candle removes from water at least 97% of chlorine, iron, copper, lead, manganese, zinc, mercury, aluminium, lindane, dieldrin, chloroform, bacteria and other organic compounds. It removes 86% of cadmium.

Australis Partners benchtop gravity water filters/coolers (functionally identical to the well-known Stefani and Pozzani countertop purifiers) remove smells, tastes, bacteria, chemicals and giardia and cryptosporidium cysts. They are made from terracotta, porcelain and earthenware, and use ceramic cartridges to produce pure, fresh drinking water and are far more convenient than jugs, bottles or pots.
