Cleanses. Revitalises. Replenishes.
Three benefits, one pot. The Kini does more than just filter.
We filter out 99.5 per cent of pollutants.
Microplastics, PFAS, pesticides, hormones, heavy metals, chlorine. Anything that doesn’t belong in the water stays in the filter cartridge.
How we do it
Ceramic filter, precious shungite, zeolite, 170 g of activated carbon from coconut shells, and much more. Tested and approved in a 12-month long-term test by IIREC Graz.
Spring water rather than just clean water.
Kini restores your water’s natural, vibrant structure. Minerals remain in the water. That’s what sets it apart from osmosis and other solutions.
How we do it
PI technology comprising 21 types of mineral ceramics. PI ceramics, tourmaline, rose quartz, EM ceramics and others work together.
Around 750 fewer PET bottles per year.
No more lugging water crates about. One cartridge per quarter replaces ten bottles a week. Straight from your kitchen.
How much it costs
Around 12 cents per litre of spring-water quality. Based on an average consumption of 3 litres per day.
Clean, revitalise, reduce plastic. All with a single jug.
Microplastics. What you can’t see, but do drink.
Several studies carried out in recent years have shown that minute plastic particles can be detected in almost every water supply network in Europe. They come from clothing, tyre wear, packaging and cosmetics.

When it comes to reducing pollutants and microplastics, the Kini is on a par with an osmosis system. When it comes to preserving minerals and regeneration, it is in a league of its own. That is the difference between clean water and spring water.

What began as a solution to a family problem.
It all began with a mother and a question. Maria Knoch wanted the best for her family, especially for her son Mathias. In the early 1990s, she began to look into the issue of water quality.
Her research eventually led her to PI technology in Japan. In 1996, Maria brought the first PI water systems to Europe and founded MAUNAWAI with her son Daniel.
What began as a personal solution became a lifelong mission for the whole family. Today, Daniel runs the company, whilst his brother Mathias manages the German operations. Maria is still on board. Three Knochs, one mission: everyone deserves access to really good water.
„Good water is not a luxury. It is a basic necessity."
