Trav-L-Pure Water Purifier
Safe water wherever you travel

by General Ecology (343101)

So, imagine you are in some exotic foreign country, sitting down to a meal in the hotel restaurant. The waiter brings you a glass of water... STOP! Do you know what might be in there? Maybe nothing, but should you take the chance? Remember that friend who spent their holiday in the bathroom? And what about medical treatment in this country... do you risk it?

So, instead, you reach into your bag & take out your Trav-L-Pure water purifier pack. You pour the glass of water in the top, and pump pure water out into your own glass. Neat, descrete, safe. Ahh... doesn't that water taste better already.

Drink pure, safe water anywhere in the world. The Trav-L-Pure purifies water instantly without chemicals or electricity. Ideal for resort and business travel.

Totally self-contained - no backwashing, hoses or chemicals needed. Just pour source water into the 'easy-fill' pre-screen & pump it through to quickly fill a glass or water bottle. Seals tight for easy packing.

This is a 'Purifier', not simply a filter

Unlike typical water filters & microfilters, General Ecology's unique "Structured Matrix" technology is comprehensively effective in removing all 3 classes of microbiological contaminants:

• Cysts (ie. cryptosporidia, giardia)
• Bacteria (ie. e.coli, fecal coliform)
• Viruses

The First Need is also effective in removing a wide range of specific chemical contaminants, including...

• Pesticides
• Herbicides
• Industrial solvents
• Chlorine
• Foul tastes and odors

The Trav-L-Pure does all this instantly, with no hold time, and no chemical treatment. The Trav-L-Pure is fully certified to meet the EPA's very rigorous Microbiological Standard for Drinking Water Purifiers.

How it works...
General Ecology's unique "Structured Matrix" utilizes three natrual, non-chemical mechanisms to purify your water better than any other technology. The ULTRAFINE CARTRIDGE microstrains down to 0.1 micron (0.4 absolute) - small enough to remove Giardia, cryptosporidia, and harmful bacteria. A BROAD SPECTRUM MOLECULAR CAPTURE process removes chlorine, foul tastes and odors, along with specific pesticides, herbicides and solvents. ELECTROCHEMICAL SEPARATIONS then remove colloids and other particles even smaller than those removed by ultrafine microstraining.

Due to this combined effectiveness, the Trav-L-Pure is certified to meet the EPA Guide Standard for Microbiological Puriiers against bacteria, cysts, and viruses. Click here to view a performance comparison chart.
