Hel-X Biocarrier Filter Media

High Performance Bio Carriers

Hel-X biocarrier are specially developed for use in biofilm processes. They are used successfully around the world in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment, aquaculture / aquaponics, and ornamental fish farming as growth bodies or fillers. You will also work in numerous other areas of process engineering as fillers in mass transfer processes.

The Hel-X Flake is a further development. The extremely large specific surface of this product results from the porosity of the material.

All Hel-X products are manufactured in Germany according to our quality and environmental standards.

The name Hel-X characterizes the circumferential spiral or helix, a product property that ensures high mechanical stability with at the same time very good flow and a high specific growth area. The biofilm is optimally supplied with oxygen and nutrients.
