Water disinfection: hygienic, clean, and tasty

Anyone who frequently travels to areas where clean drinking water is scarce knows how useful and even vital water disinfection is. With a water filter ( or activated carbon filter) for water treatment, you can convert water from streams and rivers that does not appear clean into clean drinking water, protecting yourself from disease. Especially in the tropics and other warm areas, the risk of contaminated drinking water is high without active water disinfection.

The areas of application are diverse. You can use water disinfection systems when hiking and trekking, but also when hunting or fishing, as well as when traveling. Whether bacteria, protozoa, cysts, algae, spores, sediments, or viruses – using a water sterilizer can be lifesaving when you're on the go. There are also suitable bottles with integrated water filters for children, so you can take the whole family on exciting outdoor trips and ensure safe drinking water.

To ensure you always stay healthy when traveling, Transa offers various water disinfection systems that guarantee safe drinking water on the go.

Water disinfection: effective and efficient

To filter truly clean and safe water on the go, you should only choose high-quality products when selecting a water disinfection method. After all, your health or even your life is at stake if you consume water contaminated with germs from rivers and lakes or from an unhygienic water dispenser.

You can recognize good water disinfection products by the following features:

  • Water disinfection products are available in various sizes. Most filter systems are suitable for one to two people, but there are also larger systems that can supply entire groups with clean drinking water.
  • The sterilization process is very effective, fast (e.g., thanks to quick couplings), and safe, so you can drink the water without hesitation.
  • The water disinfection system is lightweight, relatively compact and can be easily stowed in your luggage. Small portion units allow you to take the right amount for water treatment.
  • Even cloudy water (e.g., with algae and sediments) can be purified, freed of germs, and improved in taste with a suitable water disinfection product.
  • The necessary accessories are usually included and can be carried in a practical transport bag. Suitable accessories and spare parts are available for all water disinfection systems, so you can use them again and again.
  • Cleaning is very quick and easy – even when you're on the go.
  • The materials are robust and durable, and free from bisphenol A (BPA) and other harmful substances.
  • Some models can be hung up, for example, from a tree or tent, to provide a water supply for cooking, drinking, or brushing your teeth.
  • A practical carrying strap makes it easier to transport larger quantities of water.

Enjoy water that is safe for your health

Drinking plenty of fluids is important, especially during strenuous outdoor activities. This is particularly true in summer, when fluid loss is high. Water disinfection is necessary if you do not know for sure whether the water on site is germ-free. Disinfection works differently depending on the system: A combination of chlorine and silver ions prevents recontamination, the ceramic filter acts against contamination by bacteria and other pathogens, and the carbon filter acts against contamination by chemicals. Depending on the travel region, one or the other filter may be the right choice.
