Media

Can media help remediate more than just color?

We provide various media designed for different jobs. Please check our Product Finder for color, pesticides, heavy metals, moisture, etc. Or contact us for a recommendation.

Can I mix MB media with other media?

You can mix any media, but always beware of mixing different-sized media; various pressures might not be optimal for specific media and can impact flow rates.

Can I reuse the media?

It’s hard to judge because everyone’s system, SOP, starting material, end goal, etc.. is different. It can be reused, but that will depend on what you are happy with. With each consecutive run, the media’s efficacy will decrease.

How do I store my media?

Make sure the package is sealed; moisture is the biggest enemy!
