The LifeStraw Sip is the world’s first reusable stainless steel water filter straw capable of removing microplastics, bacteria and parasites from drinking water. Each LifeStraw Sip includes a premium, leak-proof carry case for portability so you can take it with you to sip confidently from hotel and restaurant tap water, or during international travel. The LifeStraw SIP Straw is a portable water filtration device designed to filter out harmful contaminants from water, making it safe to drink. "SIP" refers to the action of sipping through the straw, which filters the water as you drink. It is particularly useful in situations where clean water may not be readily available, such as during outdoor adventures (camping, hiking), travel, or emergency situations. Key Features Filtration Technology The LifeStraw SIP typically uses a hollow-fiber membrane, which can remove bacteria, parasites, and microplastics from water and filters out up to 99.999% of waterborne bacteria (like E. coli) and parasites (like Giardia and Cryptosporidium). Portability The straw is lightweight and compact, making it easy to carry. No power or batteries required, as it relies on mechanical filtration. LongevityOne LifeStraw can filter up to 1,000 before needing replacement. UsageSimply place the straw directly into the water source, such as a stream or contaminated bottle, and sip through it.It's widely used for humanitarian aid, outdoor activities, and as a precaution for travellers in areas where clean water access is limited.
