1. What Are Fragrance Beads and Why Are They in Your Shower Filter?
If you’ve ever opened a shower filter and seen colorful, scented beads tumbling inside, you’ve already met fragrance beads—a new kind of functional filter media that does more than just smell good.
Unlike traditional filter materials like activated carbon or kdf, fragrance beads combine water purification with aromatherapy. They are made from porous, food-grade EVA plastic, infused with natural essential oils, and engineered to release scent slowly while helping to intercept impurities like rust and micro-particles.

2. Why Water Purification in the Shower Matters
You might think your tap water is clean—but is it really?
- Chlorine is commonly used to disinfect water, but it can dry out your skin, damage your hair, and even be inhaled during hot showers.
- According to the U.S. EPA, a 10-minute shower can expose your body to the same amount of chlorine as drinking 2 liters of tap water.
- Heavy metals like lead, zinc, and iron can leach from old pipes and water heaters, especially in older buildings.
That’s why point-of-use water purification—especially in the shower—is becoming a daily necessity, not a luxury.

3. How Fragrance Beads Work in Shower Filters
ZONE’s fragrance beads are not just for scent—they play three key roles in your shower filter:
✅ 1. Boost chlorine removal
The beads create a “maze flow” inside the filter cartridge, increasing water contact time with other media like kdf or calcium sulfite. This can improve chlorine removal by up to 18%.
✅ 2. Provide Aromatherapy
As hot water flows through the beads, essential oil molecules are released. These natural compounds can help relax the mind, open airways, and enhance mood—turning your shower into a mini spa experience.
✅ 3. Act as a Visual Indicator
Because the beads are colorful and fade over time, they give you a visual cue of when your filter might need replacing—no more guessing!

7. Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Will the beads clog the filter?
A: No. The beads are 4–6 mm in size, much larger than filter holes. Their hydrophilic surface keeps them suspended and moving.
Q2: Do they grow mold?
A: No. The carrier contains no nutrients, and essential oils like limonene and linalool naturally inhibit mold growth.
Q3: Do they affect water TDS?
A: No. The beads are water-insoluble and cause <3 ppm change in TDS—completely negligible.
Q4: Can I brand them with my logo?
A: Yes. We offer white-label packaging, including foil bags, PET jars, and eco pouches, with 7-day lead time.
