Stop worrying about unsafe
water. LifeStraw® Go filters
a minimum of 1,000 liters of
water to the highest standards.
LifeStraw® Go – the personal water filter for everyday use
Overview
LifeStraw® Go is an innovative new personal water filter, which enables you to safely drink crystal clear water from
contaminated water sources 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.
This enables LifeStraw® Go to filter a minimum of 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 drinking water.
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.

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. At the end of the filter’s
lifetime, 1,000 liters, simply
replace the cartridge and you
are ready to Go again.
The LifeStraw® technology has been independently tested and certified to meet EU directive 10/2011 and EU directive
1935/2004 regulatory standards and the United States EPA 1987 Protocol for Microbiological Water Purification.
Please note: LifeStraw® will currently not desalinate water or filter heavy metals or viruses.
Awards
The LifeStraw® technology has been featured at The Museum of Modern Art in New York and Tate Modern in London
for its unique design and has received multiple awards, accolades, and top-tier press coverage worldwide.

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.
LifeStraw for Hiking and Camping
LifeStraw for Travel and Backpacking
LifeStraw in Emergency Situations
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.
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.
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.
Technology
The LifeStraw® Go water fileter 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.

method of filtration does
not contain any chemicals.
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 1,000 liters (264
gallons). Family is the perfect unit for households or
bigger groups with a capacity of 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.
