Swig™ filter straw

$39.00

The Swig™ filter straw filters non-potable water using an electro-adsorption process and acts against bacteria, viruses, and other contaminants present in water sources.


It's ideal for emergency and survival situations (loss of water bottle, hiking, travel or natural disasters).


It uses the same NASA-derived filtration media as ÖKO water bottles.


The SWIG works by suction and can be stored anywhere given its size and weight (survival bag, backpack, handbag, travel bag or in an easily accessible place in the event of natural disasters).

Demonstration of swig filter straw for non-potable river water

Filtration technology developed by NASA and adapted for non-potable water

NASA-developed electro-adsorption technology that triggers a positive charge field upon contact with water + a mechanical filtration system with pores calibrated to 1.2 microns.
This technology is identical to that used in our filter water bottle, which has been unanimously praised since its launch in 2018.

Swig filter straw for hiking, trekking, and survival

Ideal backup filtration system

The Swig™ straw eliminates bacteria, viruses, pesticide residues, and other contaminants found in non-potable outdoor water sources (rivers, lakes, fountains, etc.). It is your backup solution for natural disasters (floods, water supply cuts, devastating hurricanes).

You can safely drink non-potable outdoor water while waiting for the drinking water network to be restored, for example.

FAQ

How long does the Swig™ filter straw last?

The SWIG straw has no expiration date. You can keep it for many years and use it only when the situation calls for it.

It is effective and can be used as many times as you like, as long as it has not filtered 760 liters. It is a valuable product that we all hope to keep until the end of our days...


In which countries is ÖKO EUROPE filtration sufficient?

ÖKO Europe's filtration system is functional and adequate in many countries.

You will find the list inthe detailed table here.

There are more than 120 countries today.

Can you drink non-potable water from lakes, fountains, rivers, or puddles using the ÖKO EUROPE filter straw?

Yes, during natural disasters (standing water). Rivers, lakes, fountains, non-potable tap water, streams, etc. By cleaning the mouthpiece, it can be shared between people in the same location. Less hygienic than our ÖKO water bottle (which works by pressure), it nevertheless keeps you alive, which is the strength of this straw.

La meilleure solution filtre maison + rando

J’ai abandonné l’achat de bouteilles d’eau minérale et j’utilise au quotidien la gourde OKO pour filtrer l’eau du robinet . Sécurité et économie (30€/400L) avec en prime un goût neutre parfait , rien à voir avec le goût de l’eau du robinet !! J’utilise aussi la gourde en rando pour porter le minimum de poids en puisant mon eau un peu partout. Je pratique la
Rando longue distance en autonomie (GR5, GR10 …) et chaque gramme est compté. Je viens de m’équiper de la paille SWIG qui ne pèse que 42g pour la même sécurité que la gourde OKO. (jusqu’à 750 litres possible) Ça me semble idéal pour m’alléger encore davantage sans prendre de risque. Génial !! Merci Jan

Mayenne-Dinan en canoë - mai 2024

Parti avec un bidon de 10L pour l'usage quotidien: vaisselle, toilette,...J'ai filtré l'eau du bidon avec la gourde pour boire. Sur la Loire en crue, durant le moi de mai pluvieux, j'ai pré-filtré l'eau du fleuve avec le bout d'une chaussette fixée sur un filtre à câfé puis dans la gourde. L'autre partie de la chaussette humidifiée servant à rafraichir la gourde ÖKO (L'ÖKO FRESH n'était pas encore dispo;-)
Pour la première fois, je n'ai pas eu à me servir de pastilles et je n'ai pas gaspillé d'énergie pour faire bouillir l'eau.
Quelle bonheur de ne pas attendre pour pouvoir boire en pressant directement la gourde. Le top!

Un Game changer de mon quotidien

Je ne pensais pas qu’un objet aussi simple pouvait autant changer mes habitudes.
La paille filtrante swig™ m’accompagne partout. Elle ne fait pas de bruit, ne prend pas de place, mais elle change tout : je bois plus, plus sereinement, et sans me poser de questions. Où que je sois, j’ai juste à remplir et profiter.
Ce que j’aime le plus, c’est qu’elle s’intègre naturellement au quotidien. Pas besoin d’y penser, pas besoin de s’adapter. Elle est là, c’est tout. Et forcément, on se surprend à ne plus s’en passer.
Parfois, les meilleures décisions sont celles qui simplifient la vie… tout en ayant du sens.
