A success story
The Ecoflo® biofilter, an ecodesign model
As the Ecoflo® biofilter was designed, we wanted to unlock the potential of peat moss, and its function as a natural barrier and filter in wetlands. Our goal was to recreate that ecosystem in a gravitational water treatment system, which would naturally work without any additional energy source.
Right from its original conception at the end of the 1980s, the Ecoflo® biofilter was innovative and included concepts inspired from the life cycle thinking — great life expectancy, gravity mechanism, compact and repairable. Life cycle analyses have since then confirmed the relevance of this process and they are now the foundation on which we keep developing the product.
