Application of Garnet Filter Media:
Filtering Media Garnet is a natural hard and high density filter materials used in multi-media water filtration and is recommended as a support bed for other materials such as sand.

Advantages of Garnet Filter Media:
- High specific gravity allows unique filter designs. In combination with other filter media, higher flow rates, higher loadings, and better filtration can be achieved.
- High hardness reduces attrition and provides for years of reliable service.
- An excellent support bed for other high-density media.
