Filter Platypus QuickDraw Filter green

A reliable water source, wherever you are

When you are on a trek, the last thing you want to worry about is a lack of drinking water. With the Platypus QuickDraw filter, you can be sure. It is a small, lightweight (only 69 grams!) and incredibly fast companion that fits into any backpack. Thanks to it, you can turn almost any natural source into a reliable supply of clean water and focus solely on the trail ahead.

Speed and efficiency in your pocket

The heart of the filter is hollow fibre technology. Hundreds of microscopic tubes trap impurities but let water pass through – at a lightning speed of up to 3 litres per minute. You don't have to pump anything, just squeeze the bottle or use gravity. The filter reliably removes 99.9999% of bacteria (E. coli, Salmonella) and 99.9% of protozoa (Giardia, Cryptosporidium), so you don't have to worry about unpleasant intestinal problems.

Simple maintenance even in the field

Keeping the filter in good condition is a breeze. When the flow rate decreases, simply shake it or backflush it with clean water. You don't need any special tools. Thanks to the integrity test, you can also check at any time that the filter is still 100% functional and safe.
