ARCHIVAL WATER SOLUTIONS

DO NOT USE TAP WATER WHEN YOU MIX YOUR PAINT!

Archival Water is your solution to water pollution!  

Archival Water is an inert mixing agent for watercolor, gouache, and acrylic paints. This scientifically formulated product is free from the impurities in tap or bottled water.

NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION.

STAGE 1: ION EXCHANGE
First, special beads made of an ionic resin capture a range of mineral salts, drawing them out of the water.

STAGE 2: GRANULATED ACTIVE CARBON
The GAC process removes toxic organic chemicals by absorbing them into billions of microscopic pores found on the 1,000 acres of carbon surface area we expose the water to. What makes our carbon filtration unique is the amount of time the water is in contact with the carbon. If water is rushed through this phase, as in systems that produce large quantities of water in a short time, the effectiveness is drastically reduced.

STAGE 3: REVERSE OSMOSIS
In this two-stage treatment process, water under pressure is forced through a membrane having microscopic holes only .0005 of a micron in diameter. That's two ten millionths of an inch — bacteria range from .2 to 1 micron in width and viruses from .02 to .4 micron in diameter so they cannot pass through to our product water.

STAGE 4: CARBON FILTRATION... AGAIN!
This takes care of residuals that are not repelled by the RO action. The pressure on the water causes the H2O to pass through the membrane at the molecular level, leaving behind any foreign substances.

Dissolving Impurities: Impurities that are even smaller than water molecules themselves; mineral salts, sodium, and toxic metals are removed. The RO membrane rejects these impurities by repelling them from its surface through a complex process involving dielectric molecular interaction. They are then washed away before even reaching the membrane. Ultrafiltration: One more pass-through carbon in our dispensing bay just before the water enters your bottle.


STAGE 5: OXYGEN
We go one step further with the addition of ozone. Injected in measured amounts throughout our tanks and product water lines, keeping them completely free of recontamination by airborne micro-organisms. Perhaps most importantly, O3 passing into a bottle with our pure water destroys most bacteria that may exist within the container. Ozone in bottles will increase shelf life, and as it quickly converts to regular oxygen (O2). By using Ozone, we are able to keep all our water pathways sterile. This means no biological contamination in our holding tanks or delivery lines. As an added benefit, your bottles get sterilized as they are being filled!

Why not tap?
While generally regarded as a safe drinking source, tap water is cleaned by the city with chlorine. A by-product is created from this disinfection process called "Trihalomethanes", or "THMs". The levels of THMs are dependent on the amount of naturally occurring organic material found in the source water and the amount of chlorine used in disinfection. Our Multi-Stage Purification process removes lead, mercury, asbestos, minerals, salts, nitrates, organic and inorganic contaminants, bacteria, viruses and a host of man-made chemical pollutants such as chlorine, PCEs, THMs, and TCEs.
