It is a highly effective solution for protecting you from waterborne disease when you do not have access to treated water. Designed by Danish innovator Torben Vestergaard Frandsen the straw is made of plastic which contains a number of internal filters and an iodine impregnated chamber. Bacteria, parasites and small particles are removed from the water as it passes through the straw. Incredible as it may sound, with the Lifestraw it is possible to drink water from almost any fresh water source, even the River Thames which runs through the heart of London, Englands congested capital city. The Lifestraw is a must have device for all campers, back-packers, travellers, hikers, aid workers, sailors, volunteers, survival enthusiasts and for those planning for any eventuality. The Lifestraw is a sealed unit with no moving parts therefore making it exceedingly durable and meaning no servicing or maintenance is required. Like a normal drinking straw, the Lifestraw is operated purely by the user sucking on the end of the straw and so no electricity/batteries are required which means your Lifestraw is always operational. As each Lifestraw is only 25cm (10 inches) long and 29mm (just over 1 inch) in diameter, it is the essential addition to any emergency survival kit be it for the home, vehicle or back-pack. As detailed on Vestergaard Frandsens website, who is the manufacturer, each Lifestraw can filter 700 Litres of water. The filtration process effectively removes waterborne micro organisms down to 6 microns and uses iodine effectively to remove all iodine sensitive organisms such as Shigella, Salmonella, Staphylococcus Aureus and E .Coli which cause Diarrhea, Dysentery, Typhoid, and Cholera. Vestergaard Frandsen has published independent study results on their web site to demonstrate the efficiency of the Lifestraw. For details of these impressive study results and the effectiveness against other waterborne pathogens which are specific to your locality, please refer to Vestergaard Frandsen www.lifestraw.com A summary of what is detailed on Vestergaard Frandsens website can be found on our FAQ page. At only US$14.95 (£7.50) plus postage & packing the Lifestraw is the perfect solution. You can buy your Lifestraw online in either US$ or GBP using any major credit card from our secure online storeCLICK HERE. We offer worldwide shipping with delivery in 3-5 working days. See less »
