Sea to Summit Lifestraw Sip 1-Piece With Carry Case in the colour Apricot. LifeStraw Sip is a compact and lightweight water filter designed as a drinking straw, perfect to bring on travel, hiking and other adventures where you want a simple way to filter drinking water. The slim stainless steel design takes up minimal space, and the included carry case protects the filter during transport.

Inside sits a membrane filter with a filtration rating of 0.2 microns. The filter removes 99.999999% of bacteria such as E. coli, 99.999999% of parasites such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium, and 99.999% of microplastics. It also helps to reduce turbidity in the water.

The filter has a lifespan of up to 1000 litres, depending on the quality of the water being filtered. Always choose the cleanest available water source. The product is BPA-free and meets the stated American NSF and EPA standards for, among other things, the filtration of bacteria and parasites.

The filter must be protected from frost, as freezing can block filtration and in the worst case permanently damage the filter element. Please also be aware that water filters do not remove toxins from blue-green algae/cyanobacteria, and therefore do not make water from such algal blooms safe to drink.

With the purchase of a LifeStraw filter, support is also given to the Follow the Liters programme, which contributes to access to clean drinking water for schoolchildren.
