Purolite A860 is a premium-grade macroporous anion exchange resin specifically formulated for the efficient removal of tannins, humic acids, and other naturally occurring organics in groundwater and surface water sources.

This resin is particularly effective in residential and commercial water treatment applications where discoloured water, foul odours, or reduced chlorine efficiency are caused by the presence of tannins or decaying vegetation. It is also suitable as a pretreatment media to protect reverse osmosis membranes and extend carbon filter life.

Key Features

• Effective Tannin Removal – Designed for high capacity uptake of tannins, lignins, and organics.

• Improves Water Clarity & Taste – Removes yellow/brown tints and odours from water.

• Protects Downstream Equipment – Ideal as pre-treatment before RO membranes and UV systems.

• Long Service Life – Highly durable resin structure with excellent hydraulic stability.

• Regenerable Media – Easily regenerates with standard sodium chloride (NaCl) brine solutions.

• NSF Certified – Meets strict international safety and quality standards.
