From the brand

-
From a simple straw
LifeStraw began as a simple mesh filter to help eradicate Guinea worm disease by removing the parasite from drinking water.
-
LifeStraw gives back
For every product purchased, a school child in need receives safe water for a year.
-
A better water filter is here
LifeStraw Home removes 30+ contaminants including bacteria, microplastics, and PFAS—all in a sleek, award-winning modern design.
-
How did we get our start?
It all 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 a simple mesh filter to remove Guinea worm larvae from drinking water. Since then we have designed water filtration for outdoors and home.
What makes our products unique?
Every LifeStraw product removes bacteria, parasites, and microplastics.
Why do we love what we do?
We have humanitarian roots and believe that impact matters. To us, it's not just water filters, its ensuring equitable access to safe water for all

5.0 out of 5 stars Un indispensable pour les aventuriers
Color: BlueStyle: 1 PackVerified PurchaseLe LifeStraw - Filtre à eau personnel est un excellent produit pour tous ceux qui aiment les activités en plein air. Sa conception compacte et légère en fait un compagnon idéal pour le camping, la randonnée ou les situations d'urgence.
L'utilisation est simple : il suffit de plonger l'extrémité dans une source d'eau, et vous pouvez boire directement. J'apprécie particulièrement sa capacité à éliminer 99,9 % des bactéries et protozoaires, ce qui me donne une grande tranquillité d'esprit.
La qualité du filtre est impressionnante, et je l'ai utilisé plusieurs fois sans aucun problème. C'est un accessoire essentiel pour rester hydraté en toute sécurité, où que vous soyez. Je le recommande vivement à tous les amateurs d'aventure !

2.0 out of 5 stars Does the job, but not very efficient
Color: BlueStyle: 1 PackVerified PurchaseIt has a great size and weight, which makes it very good for backpacking or other outdoor sports and it could really save your life in some situations. The problem is only its efficiency, it's very hard to suck the water through the straw, which even made my cheeks hurt. You also have to improvise on how to fit it on your bottles. There are much better versions on the market, but this on is very cheap and does the job, not excellent, but does the job.
