The LifeStraw® is an award-winning point-of-use portable water filter that transforms micro-biologically contaminated water into safe, clean drinking water. It is ideal for a variety of users outside of the home, from hikers and campers to people displaced by natural disasters.

LifeStraw®, backed by extensive field research and serious research in international labs, has been distributed to nearly every major international humanitarian disaster since 2005, as well as in massive public health campaigns involving millions of people.

• Easy-to-operate: Anyone who can use a drinking straw can use a LifeStraw®. Simply drink or draw the unfiltered water through the LifeStraw® and when finished blow air back through the straw to flush and clear it after drinking
• LifeStraw® uses advanced hollow fiber technology. This is a highly efficient method of filtration. Hollow fibre membrane requires no chemicals like chlorine or iodine.
• Water enters and is forced through narrow fibers under high pressure
• Hollow fibers trap bacteria, protozoa, and other contaminants which are flushed out by backwashing
• Reduces turbidity (muddiness)
• Clean water exits through tiny pores in the walls of the hollow fibers
• Filtered water is safe to drink
  

• Drink directly from any water source (tested by Forest City Surplus Staff by drinking directly from puddles in our parking lot)
