The SolarBag is a sunlight-activated reusable water purifier that destroys or reduces the broadest range of contaminants without pumping, electricity, chemicals or replaceable components. Simply place the SolarBag in the sun for a few hours, and enjoy purified water. Through solar-activated nanotechnology, the SolarBag offers the broadest contaminant treatment of any portable water purifier.
clean water worldwide
Around 700 million people in 43 countries suffer today from water scarcity. Approximately 3.5 million deaths related to inadequate water supply, sanitation and hygiene occur each year, predominantly in developing countries
​
Sufficient water supply of appropriate quality is a key ingredient in the health and well-being of humans and ecosystems.
Children, girls in particular, can attend school rather than spending time fetching water from non-secure sources.
Safe water improves health and education and therefore the development of the community.
EASY TO USE
Ready To Use
Fill a SolarBag® with 3.5 liters of fresh water from any source through its included pre-filter. Then place the SolarBag in direct sunlight or in any area open to the sky. The water is purified in 2-3 hours on a sunny day or 4-6 hours on a cloudy day or if the source water is tea-colored. An optional dye process that acts as a timer indicates that the purification process is complete. Once the process is finished, simply drink the great tasting, purified water.
