Descripción
Purolite TANEX Tannin Resin, supplied in a 1 cubic foot box, is a specialized ion-exchange media formulated to tackle one of the more stubborn water-quality challenges: tannins and dissolved organic matter. This proprietary blend of special and patented anion exchange resins targets the organics that cause yellow or tea-colored water, primarily in potable applications where conventional treatment falls short.
Targeted Tannin Removal
Tannins are natural organic compounds that leach into water from decaying leaves, vegetation, and peaty soils, and they are notoriously difficult to remove with standard filtration or softening. They can impart a yellowish or brownish tint and an earthy taste or odor that ordinary equipment leaves untouched. TANEX is engineered specifically for this task, reducing the harder-to-control organic matter and color that may exist as partially dissolved and partially colloidal material in the water. The result is clearer, better-quality water for the household.
Because tannins frequently appear alongside hardness in well water, TANEX is often deployed in a dedicated tank installed alongside or downstream of a water softener. Its anion exchange chemistry captures the organic compounds during the service run and is regenerated, typically with salt brine, to restore capacity, giving the media a sustainable working life when properly maintained on the right schedule.

For homeowners and installers battling persistent color or organic contamination that ordinary filters and softeners leave behind, Purolite TANEX provides a purpose-built answer rooted in patented resin chemistry. Proper system sizing and regeneration are important to performance, so match the cubic-foot volume to your tank and follow the recommended regeneration practices for your water chemistry. Load it into an appropriately configured tank, maintain it consistently, and this specialized resin helps deliver the clear, clean water that more general-purpose media simply cannot achieve, making it a valuable component of any treatment train facing tannin-laden source water. When standard filters and softeners have left color and organic taste behind, TANEX is the targeted solution that finally gets results.
