Lighter than a water filter and easier to use. Designed to impart no unpleasant taste.

Better tasting than chlorine and potentially less harmful than iodine these Micropur® Purification Tablets rely on Sodium Chlorite (i.e. Chlorine Dioxide) to penetrate and kill cysts viruses bacteria protozoa worm eggs and giardia. Simply wait 30 minutes with normal water under typical conditions or 4 hours for Crypto in freezing cold muddy water before drinking from your newly purified water supply. These precisely measured tablets are ideal for purifying small quantities of water anytime anywhere - especially while traveling in hotels and ultralight trips. If you need water quickly or rely on sources with gritty or muddy runoff consider using the Katadyn Guide™ or Hiker™ Microfilters.
