Water Filters

Based in the North-east of Italy, LAICA is a family company established

in 1974. Today it is one of the leading European manufacturers offering a

large range of household products, including highly advanced and efficient

water filters.

Designed with the aid of the latest computer software, LAICA maintains its

important position, supported by a huge investment in a 10,000 sq metre

European based manufacturing facility and dedicated quality control to support

its customers worldwide.

Water is essential for our well being and survival. An adult should consume

not less than 2 litres of clean, clear water per day.

Our bodies consist of 70% water so keeping “topped up” with high quality

drinking water is essential to our health and appearance.

Besides drinking, freshly filtered LAICA water is excellent for making great

tasting tea and coffee. Similarly, it improves the colour, appearance and texture

of food when used in cooking.

Other benefits are that filtered water prevents the build up of limescale in

kettles and coffee makers, thus helping to extend the life and efficiency.
