LifeStraw® uses advanced hollow fibre technology. This is a highly efficient method of filtration. Hollow fibre membrane requires no chemicals like chlorine or iodine.

How it works
 • Water enters and is forced through narrow fibres under high pressure.
 • Hollow fibres trap bacteria, protozoa, and other contaminants which are flushed out by backwashing.
 • Clean water exits through tiny pores in the walls of the hollow fibres.
 • Filtered water is safe to drink.
