But, Is My Water That Bad? Learn about THMS...
A 2021 research paper by scientists in the European Union unveiled that over 6,500 bladder cancer cases in the UK can be attributted to the high levels of trihalomethanes present in tap water, amounting to 20% of total EU cases. Bladder cancer has a mortality rate of over 50%.

Microplastics: A Threat
Microplastics are being found in human blood. Mainstream media has started to accept this and has stopped downplaying this idea. They are linked to neurotoxicity, organ damage, DNA damage and a whole host of other threats. Water2 is combatting the threat of microplastics by eliminating 99.9999% of them from your tap water.
So, how does it work?
- Your tap water flows in via the push-fit inlet.
- This water flows down towards the bottom of the Pod 2.0, where the pressure forces the water through stage one: our high-grade activated carbon membrane.
- Next, the water is met with our industry-leading ultrafiltration module. The pores are extremely small (0.1 microns) which eliminates 99.999% of microplastics.
- The ultra-filtered water is now pushed to the top of the Pod 2.0, allowing it to reconnect to the cold inlet and flow through your tap.
A water crash course
Reverse osmosis machines, distillers, and other products that reduce Total Dissolvable Solids (TDS) to zero strip your water of essential minerals vital for a healthy diet.
In contrast, the filtration technology of traditional filter jugs has seen little innovation over decades. Alarmingly, these jugs filter to only 200 microns. Pod 2.0 filters to 0.1 microns.
Water2 aims to provide a solution that strikes an optimal balance between removing the harmful contaminants from our water with exceptional efficiency while also retaining those essential minerals.
Unsafe Pollutants
Such as Microplastics, Lead & Chlorine
Healthy Minerals
Such as Magnesium, Iron & Calcium
Tap Water
A worrying revelation was revealed in 2022 when 'water sources at 17 of 18 England’s water companies, with 11,853 samples, tested positive for the presence of forever chemicals.' PFAS & PFOA have been mostly banned. This is because they have been linked to cancers, thyroid disease, immune system and fertility problems as well as developmental defects in unborn children.
Filter Jugs
On the other hand, the filtration of filter jugs has been around for decades and innovation remains stagnant. A scary example is that traditional filter jugs micron filter 2,000x time less than Pod.
Water2
The goal of Water2 is to present a solution that removes the harmful contaminants in water at an extremely high level. While on the other hand being able to retain those vital minerals.
Reverse Osmosis
Reverse osmosis machines, distillers, and other products that reduce Total Dissolvable Solids (TDS) to zero strip your water of essential minerals vital for a healthy diet.
What Nasties Does Water2 Filter Out?
Our industry-leading performance results collated from various tests. Note that Pod about is about balancing the preservation of good minerals with the removal of bad.

An evaluation of Water2’s Pod™ Technology as a Solution to Inadequate Sources of Drinking Water.
We understand the importance of transparency, especially when it comes to the water you and your family consume. That's why, in partnership with University College London (UCL), we published a 50-page whitepaper detailing our mission, technology, and process.
