The challenge brief
Filter. Test. Improve.
Teams receive a contaminated-water simulation and a constrained set of filtration materials. They must design a process, test the result and improve the system.
Agree the mission rules and success criteria during the briefing, then let your team choose its approach.
What shapes the challenge
- Materials have different characteristics
- Teams must justify their design
- Tests provide measurable feedback
- Final performance is compared across teams
Inside the experience
Your mission, step by step.
A practical progression from the first decision to the final demonstration.
Select and layer materials
Choose the filter media and discuss the order of the layers.
Build the filter
Assemble a filter that keeps the materials in place and channels the flow.
Run the first test
Run the simulated sample through it and record the observable result.
Analyse and improve
Adjust the layers or process and compare performance; the output is not for drinking.
Purpose behind the experience
Build capability through participation.
Sustainability thinking
Consider material use alongside the simulated filtration result.
Evidence-based improvement
Compare successive trials before claiming an improvement.
Resource optimisation
Choose media and layering with a clear purpose.
Collaborative design
Combine observations to refine the flow and filter arrangement.
Bring the learning back to work.
The activity connects sustainability to practical systems thinking: teams must balance performance, material use and process design.

Planning details for Water Filtration Challenge. Bring any additional requirements into your conversation with Sieger.
Is the water safe to drink?
No. The activity uses a controlled simulation and is not a drinking-water treatment exercise.
Can sustainability criteria be added?
Yes. Material cost, waste and efficiency can be included in the score.
Can Sieger customise the challenge for our objective?
Yes. Difficulty, narrative, scoring, team size, duration, venue layout and the workplace behaviour being explored can all be customised.
Can this be combined with other technology experiences?
Yes. The experience can be combined with electronics, drones, robotics, STEM, software, AI and mechanical challenges to create a larger technology challenge journey.
How many people can take part in Water Filtration Challenge?
The current planning format is 20–80 participants, organised into teams of 5–6. Confirm the final group size with Sieger so equipment, facilitator coverage and team rotations can be planned.
How long should we allow for the experience?
The indicative activity duration is 60–75 min. Briefing, practice, team presentations and debrief requirements can affect the final agenda; agree the complete session timing during planning.
What equipment is involved?
The proposed kit includes Filter media, Containers, Measurement tools, Safe simulated water, and Performance test card. Confirm the final equipment list, participant devices and venue requirements with the programme team.
Who is this experience suited to?
The existing format is designed with esg programs, leadership teams, engineering groups, corporate sustainability events in mind. Share participants’ experience levels so the technical depth and facilitation can be matched to the group.
How are the results discussed?
The facilitator can use the agreed challenge rules, team decisions and observed results to guide the debrief. The discussion connects sustainability thinking, evidence-based improvement, resource optimisation to situations your team encounters at work.
How do we plan a Water Filtration Challenge session?
