The Watermatic™ range uses the Royal Doulton Premium Ceramic Filter. For over a century, Royal Doulton has led the field in water filtration. Their filters meet the stringent standards of the World Health Organisation and the approved laboratory standards of the EPA and Europe, as well as the national laboratory standards in more than 50 countries. They have been independently tested and shown to be very efficient at removing impurities such as chlorine, bacteria, amoebas, suspended solids, organic pesticides, some heavy metals, bad tastes and smells. They will remove 99.9% of Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Whether you choose the simplicity of the Watermatic™ Classic or the funky Watermatic™ Retro, the water will taste even better when it is served from such a fine showpiece.
