Benefits

LIFESAVER® products save lives.

The LIFESAVER® Bottle and Jerrycan filter all microbiological contaminates from water, including the bacteria that causes cholera. An activated carbon filter also reduces chemical residues including: pesticides, endocrine disrupting compounds, medical residues, and heavy metals such as lead and copper. LIFESAVER’s patented pump system filters water on demand, eliminating the need for storage and guaranteeing that it’s clean at the point of consumption. LIFESAVER® products minimize preventable water-borne disease and save lives.

LIFESAVER® products save the environment.

LIFESAVER® products reduce environmental impact. Relying on the LIFESAVER® bottle and Jerrycan for clean drinking water removes the need for plastic bottles, directly reducing our impact on the environment.

The price we’re paying for bottled water itself pales in comparison to the price we’re paying for the environmental consequences of manufacturing, transport, and disposal of the bottles. The Earth Policy Institute estimates that making bottles to meet the US demand for bottled water requires more than 15 million barrels of oil annually—enough to fuel 100,000 cars for a year.

In humanitarian and disaster relief locations, LIFESAVER® technology results in less plastic bottles being distributed which means less pollution at the point of manufacture and less plastic waste at the point of use.

LIFESAVER® products save money.

LIFESAVER® products can produce water for as little as 2 cents per liter (6 cents per gallon). For recreational activities, the LIFESAVER® bottle is an extremely economical and environmentally friendly alternative to bottled water. 1 LIFESAVER® 6000 bottle with replacement filters, over the course of 5 years, eliminates the need for manufacture and disposal or recycling of over 25,000 16 oz plastic bottles bottles of water.
