FACTS
- The first portable water filter - today a classic
- Made from top-quality, durable materials. This is why the Pocket is suitable for the toughest of conditions and is
the first choice for extreme adventurers like Mike Horn
- The tried and tested ceramic depth filter removes bacteria, protozoa and other disease-causing agents. The
principle: The micro-organisms cannot pass through the mini pores of the filter ceramic (0,2 microns) because of
their size (greater than 0,2 microns = 0,0002 mm)
- Unlike disposable filters, the ceramic can be cleaned several times - even in the field
- Improved, round pump handle for better ergonomics and an outlet hose which can be attached to water
containers with a simple clip
