Lightweight Personal Water Filter for Outdoor Activities

From a simple straw, LifeStraw began as a mesh filter designed to help eradicate Guinea worm disease by removing the parasite from drinking water. For every product purchased, a school child in need receives safe water for a year, reflecting LifeStraw's humanitarian roots and belief that impact matters. The LifeStraw Home removes 30+ contaminants, including bacteria, microplastics, and PFAS, in a sleek, award-winning modern design.

LifeStraw's water filtration products for outdoors and home have evolved from their initial focus on fighting Guinea worm disease. Every LifeStraw product removes bacteria, parasites, and microplastics, making them unique. The brand's commitment to ensuring equitable access to safe water for all is at the heart of what they do.

The LifeStraw weighs less than 2 ounces (46 g), making it ultralight and durable, and its long-lasting membrane microfilter will last up to 1,000 gallons (4,000 L) of water, enough drinking water for an individual for over 5 years. It is the ultimate survival tool, with an unlimited shelf life and tested to withstand the harshest conditions.

LifeStraw is proud to be a B Corp and Climate Neutral Certified brand, committed to meeting the highest standards of verified social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Their products protect against 99.999999% of bacteria (including E.coli, Salmonella), 99.999% of parasites (including Giardia and Cryptosporidium), and 99.999% of microplastics, silt, sand, and cloudiness.

The story of LifeStraw began with a simple idea: a mesh filter designed as a straw to fight Guinea worm disease. In 1994, LifeStraw partnered with The Carter Center to design this simple solution, and since then, they have expanded their water filtration offerings for both outdoor and home use. Their commitment to impact and social responsibility remains at the core of their mission, with every purchase providing a year of safe water to a child in need.
