BioMediaGREEN - A Revolutionary Filter Media
The Modular Wetland System Linear's third stage of treatment is a perimeter media filter which utilizes BioMediaGREEN. This amazing material is changing the way we think of filtration media. Most systems utilize a granular media that needs to be contained, is heavy in weight, and difficult to replace. In contrast, BioMediaGREEN comes in lightweight blocks making it inexpensive to ship and simple to replace.
