June 20, 2023

New LifeStraw Peak Series Solo Water Filter packs award-winning filtration technology into the world’s most compact water filter - perfect for everything from backpacking to emergencies and turns most standard water bottles into a powerful filtration system

BALTIMORE (June 20, 2023)/OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – LifeStraw, a public health B Corp on a mission to provide equitable access to safe drinking water, announces the launch of the lightest and most compact water filter in its portfolio. The LifeStraw Peak Series Solo Water Filter is ultra-lightweight at only 1.7 ounces, compact at just 5.1 inches and portable. It removes bacteria, parasites, microplastics, silt, sand, and cloudiness from drinking water.

The filter’s standard 28mm threading allows it to be easily screwed onto most common plastic water bottles. And thanks to the one-handed flip cap design and fast flow rate of three liters per minute, filling up a one-liter bottle takes just 20 seconds. The Peak Series Solo Water Filter is the perfect companion for hiking, backpacking, camping, emergencies, travel and glove compartments or keychains.

“This is a product our entire team is incredibly excited about. We set out to make the lightest filter on the market while maintaining a strong flow rate and performance, and after extensive field testing, we are really confident we have something special,” said Tara Lundy, LifeStraw’s chief brand officer. “I’ve already tested this product on several hiking and camping trips with my family and my kids love the visual of squeezing dirty water through the filter into a clean container. At less than two ounces, no backpack, pocket, emergency bag, or glove compartment should be without one.”
