Brio Cation Exchange Resin is a food-grade polysytrene 10% cross-linked DVB (divinylbenzene) resin. Ideal for residential and business water softening systems that are on municipal water supplies with chlorine less than 1.0 ppm, this gel resin media is a perfect match with the water softening system or cartridge you already own. Its rigid 10% crosslinking offers strong resistance to chlorine oxidation, while ensuring appliances and plumbing are protected, skin and hair are nourished, and glasses and dishes leave the dishwasher sparkling. This premium-quality resin meets performance criteria for both salt and water usage in removing hardness from water, making it a smart, economical choice and a crucial component of any water softening system.

  • Premium quality: flexible polysytrene 10% cross-linked DVB resin bead construction offers strong resistance against chlorine oxidation that can shorten resin lifespan, and a robust 48,000 grain capacity before regeneration is necessary
  • Protects appliances: eliminates destructive scale buildup on appliances and plumbing that can lead to expensive repairs and replacements
  • Certified performance: meets NSF/ANSI efficiency performance criteria for both salt and water usage in removing hardness from water; tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 44 for material requirements only
  • Long-lasting: ideal for homes as well as businesses with chlorine >1.0 ppm or with high iron or manganese; total exchange capacity (gr/cu. ft. as CaCO3) of 48,000
  • Conveniently compatible: can be used in both regenerable softeners and non-regenerable cartridges, commercial and residential
