The Squeeze Filter

Don't trust the tap or bottle water abroad? This filter screws directly on to most threaded water bottles as well as the reusable pouches included with the filter.You can either squeeze the pouch and filter water into a different container/water bottle or drink directly from the filter. This lightweight filter is perfect for traveling. Additionally, with a special adapter you can convert this filter to a bucket system. More Info

The Bucket System

Create a point of use water filtration system in minutes by affixing the 0.1 micron filter to a locally found plastic container. Fill up the bucket with water from a lake, stream, borehole or contaminated well and gravity does the rest. This fast flowing system produces more than enough clean, safe water for a family's daily drinking, cooking and cleaning needs. More info 

 

The 10" Filter

Get up to 5,000 gallons of clean water per day for your home, school, hospital, office building, etc. with our new 10" filter. This filter is the same technology used in our Bucket Systems, but 10 times the surface area. This unit easily attaches to your indoor plumbing and removes the harmful contaminants before they reach your faucet. The 10 " filter can be used with household or commercial building pressure (60psi) as well as with very low pressures and gravity feed applications. This unit is available pre-plumbed with brass or PVC and includes a regulator which allows you to safely clean the filter by backwashing it at an exact pressure. More info

MAP International - Field Report

 

School with filters

In total, MAP International has distributed around 650 water filters, reaching over  9,000 people worldwide! We saw in Ecuador improved behavior and school performance in children. In Kenya, the village boss recognized how valuable the filters were, and searched all over to find more! In Bolivia, the introduction of the water filters meant much more than just a source of clean water. The filters served as a springboard for holistic, community-wide change in water and sanitation. Special thanks to the generous heart of an Irish donor, without whom this project would not be possible. This donation, the innovative technology of the Sawyer Water filters, and the careful, caring hands of MAP staff, have created tangible, measurable, and lasting change.
