SteriPEN water purification technology harnesses the brilliant power of ultraviolet light to make water safe to drink. It’s the same technology used by leading bottled water manufacturers, as well as major cities in the U.S., Europe and Asia to purify water. View the WQA video explanation Extensive testing has proven SteriPEN to be safe and effective, eliminating over 99.9% of bacteria, viruses and protozoa that cause water-borne illness.
Some models fit commercial water bottles, use a hand crank, or offer a battery solar charger. SteriPEN may be the best insurance policy you can take out for your travel plans. Water systems in many countries do not adequately purify drinking water to ensure its safety. Leaks and contamination of water pipes are also common. Even bottled water can come from unknown and unregulated sources. But SteriPEN zaps the microbes that could make you ill.
The World Health Organization (WHO) attributes 80% of all travel diseases to contaminated drinking water, and according to the U.S. Center for Disease Control:
“An estimated 10 million people develop Traveler’s Diarrhea each year. High-risk destinations include developing countries of Latin America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East.”
Whether traveling for business or pleasure, you invest a great deal of time and money in your trip. So make sure to pack SteriPEN to keep you and your family healthy while away from home. Enjoy your travels without the fear of allowing unsafe water to make you ill.
SteriPEN offers three options for foreign travelers, The Freedom, The Traveler and The Traveler Mini. They are all easy to pack and take along and are proven to help travelers and their families stay healthy when visiting countries with at-risk water supplies.
SteriPEN for travelers is a great defense against having water-related illness ruin your trip.
