Overview

LifeStraw® Go is an innovative new personal water filter, which enables you to instantly transform contaminated water to crystal

clear drinking water easier and safer that it has ever been done before. With LifeStraw® Go you no longer have to be concerned

about your local water source.

LifeStraw® Go is based on the award-winning LifeStraw® technology, developed by Vestergaard, which has been used in millions

of LifeStraw® personal water filters in more than 70 countries around the world under the most extreme conditions. Unlike most

other personal water filters, LifeStraw® Go is created around a hollow fiber membrane technology and is not using carbon, chlorine

or any chemicals.

This enables LifeStraw® Go to filter up to 1,000 liters (264 gallons), which is a lot more than most comparable filters. The Go filter

does not require any batteries or contain any chemicals. Furthermore, LifeStraw® Go’s filtering efficacy is unique. The hollow fiber

membrane technology allows Go to transform even highly contaminated water into clean and safe water as you drink.

You can safely fill your Go bottle with unsafe water from rivers, creeks, ponds or lakes and stay hydrated no matter where you are.

Go filters a minimum of 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria and 99.9% of waterborne parasites and removes turbidity down to 0.2

microns to ensure that your Go water is clear and has no bad taste.

GO safe

When the Go filter reaches its

full capacity (i.e. the end of its

lifetime), the membrane clogs

naturally, thus eliminating the

possibility of drinking

contaminated water from the

filter. The Go filter has an

amazing capacity of up to

1,000 liters (264 gallons)

Where to use LifeStraw® Go

LifeStraw® Go is your state of the art daily water bottle, which can eliminate your concerns about your public water quality.

Simply fill your Go at the sink and you are ready to go. However, Go is also your trusted hydration solution when you go for

adventures.

Technology

The LifeStraw® Go water filter contains specially designed hollow fiber ultra-

filtration technology, most commonly found in industrial water treatment plants that

clean a city’s water supply. The inside of the LifeStraw® Go filter consists of

a large number of hollow fibers that resemble angel hair spaghetti, but much thinner.

Each fiber has pores in its walls with a diameter of 0.2 microns or five hundred times

smaller than the diameter of a human hair. When water is forced through the hollow

fibers, only clean water can fit through these pores, blocking bacteria, parasites, and

dirt from reaching the user.

This purely physical method of

filtration does not contain any

chemicals.

LifeStraw for Hiking and Camping

LifeStraw® Go is the easiest way to

stay hydrated while on the Go. Just

scoop water into the bottle, and sip

through the straw, as you walk. If you

consume the recommended 3-4 liters

of water per day, LifeStraw® Go will

last you at least 250 days.

LifeStraw for Travel and Backpacking

You can attach LifeStraw® Go to your

backpack which makes it easy to

travel wherever you are. If you have

ever been sick travelling, you know

the importance of drinking filtered

water to prevent waterborne illness.

LifeStraw in Emergency Situations

Following a natural disaster, a family

may not be able to depend on their

regular water supply. LifeStraw® Go is

easy to use, making it perfect to

include in emergency preparedness

kits. A LifeStraw® Go for each family

member is a low-cost investment in

peace of mind.

The LifeStraw® Portfolio

The LifeStraw® product portfolio also includes

LifeStraw® Personal and LifeStraw® Family. Personal is

the unique and ultra-light personal filter weighing only 56

grams and with a capacity of up to 1,000 liters (264

gallons). Family is the perfect unit for households or

bigger groups with a capacity of up to 18,000 liters (4750

gallons).

The Global Water Crisis

Worldwide, more children die of diarrheal disease than of HIV/AIDs, malaria, and measles

combined. A child is dying every seven minutes due to the lack of access to clean drinking water

and according to WHO, more than 750 million people worldwide do not have access to safe

drinking water. Most of these people live in the poorest places on Earth.

WaterNlife is dedicated to helping alleviate the global water crisis. Together with Vestergaard,

the inventor of LifeStraw, WaterNlife will donate clean drinking water to a child in Sub-Saharan

Africa for an entire school year for every LifeStraw® Go sold.
