BRITA Style water filtering jug 2.4 L Maxtra Pro Pure Performance (Sand)

Water filtering jug "Style", produced by BRITA, composed of:

- transparent plastic container, total capacity 2.4 l, filtered water capacity 1.4 l;
- special funnel for filter, made of BPA-free plastic (Bisphenol A);
- filtering cartridge MAXTRA PRO Pure Performance - can filter approximately 150 l of tap water*;
- plastic lid with LED type indicator for changing the filtering cartridge.

Why BRITA filtering jugs?

These innovative filtering jugs are a practical, convenient, and ecological way to keep yourself hydrated constantly without having to carry traditional bottled water. Unlike plastic bottles that are not environmentally friendly and hard to degrade, BRITA jugs are used long-term, requiring only simple replacement of the filtering cartridges.

With their help, you can enjoy the authentic taste of water which, once filtered, will be much clearer and impurities will be reduced.

Due to its compact size and shape, the Style filtering jug is perfect for storage on the fridge shelf, and thanks to its elegant design, it will look impeccable once placed on the table.

The carafe and funnel can be washed in the dishwasher except the lid, which should be cleaned manually. 

Cartridge replacement indicator

The Style filtering jug is equipped with a warning system for cartridge replacement, a LED type indicator positioned on the lid. This system is unique among BRITA jugs and is only found in the Style range. Called "Smart Light", this system monitors the remaining lifetime of the MAXTRA PRO cartridge and alerts the user by changing the color from green to yellow and then to red.

To activate the monitoring system, press and hold the LED button for about 5 seconds, during which the green LED will blink alternately 3 times. Each time the Style jug is used, the green light will turn on; when the green light is replaced by yellow during use, you will know it’s time to replace the MAXTRA PRO cartridge.

If the warning light turns red, the cartridge's filtering capacity has fully expired (the recommended amount of water has already been filtered).

Replacing the MAXTRA PRO filtering cartridge

For a consumption of 2 l of water per day per person and for optimal results each time, we recommend replacing the MAXTRA PRO cartridge every 4 weeks or after filtering 150 l of water. After the recommended period expires, detach the jug lid, carefully remove the funnel, then grip the cartridge on both sides and pull it up.
The new ergonomic shape of the MAXTRA PRO cartridges allows easy removal and replacement.

MAXTRA PRO technology

The jug is equipped with a BRITA MAXTRA PRO filtering cartridge, an improved version of the original MAXTRA+.
The innovative "MicroFlow" filtration technology of the MAXTRA PRO cartridges used in BRITA filtering jugs ensures optimal results every time, their performance being the result of 5 years of research in BRITA laboratories in Germany. The taste of tea and coffee, whether hot or cold, will be visibly improved once the water used is filtered with MAXTRA PRO. Using filtered water prevents limescale deposits on appliances, thus prolonging their life.

MAXTRA PRO offers an economical and environmentally friendly alternative for tap water consumption, with cartridges being 100% recyclable.

Compared to previous versions of BRITA cartridges, MAXTRA PRO features a final filtering mesh that is 4 times more efficient compared to the MAXTRA+ filter. Tap water first passes through an ultra-fine mesh for initial purification, capturing coarse particles from old pipes, then is filtered again through a high-performance additional filtering mesh.

The activated carbon particle formula "Micro Carbon" efficiently and faster removes organic impurities affecting taste and smell. At the same time, the ion-exchange resin reduces limescale and metals such as copper and lead. The excellent performance of BRITA jugs and the impeccable taste of filtered water are mainly due to these particles.

The activated carbon, obtained from coconut shell, is presented in a compact form and can filter a larger amount of water more efficiently. The micropores of the carbon particles capture unwanted substances, even combating pesticides.

Proof of MAXTRA PRO cartridge efficiency?

The entire filtration process and the quality of BRITA products are tested both in their own laboratories and by organizations such as the renowned TÜV SÜD, which certified that BRITA products comply with European food industry standards.

Use of MAXTRA cartridges is even recommended by the British Tea Academy, as it has been proven that the aroma of tea and coffee prepared with water filtered by MAXTRA is intensified.

How does the water purification process actually work?

Simple! Through a relatively quick but thorough process, with the help of the 4 basic components of the MAXTRA PRO cartridge.

1. The first mesh stops coarse particles;
2. Micro granules of carbon derived from coconut reduce chlorine and other organic substances that can affect the taste and smell;
3. Ion-exchange resin retains metals and reduces limescale deposits.
4. For a final filtration, water passes through a final mesh that retains even the finest unwanted particles, being 4 times more efficient compared to MAXTRA+.
5. The water is ready to be consumed!

*BRITA filters are designed to be used only for filtering tap water (note: if the water is regularly tested and declared potable) or for filtering water from private suppliers declared potable.
