Importantly, SureAquaPak is re-useable many times over and is extremely cost effective, filtering up to 500 liters (132 gallons) of water. That's 1,000 x500ml bottles of bottled water you won't have to buy - what a saving!! SureAquaPak is Better Than Bottled Water - But Why? Bottled water is starting to come under higher scrutiny and criticism for sub-standard, often simply tap, water; bacterial growth after bottling and related health concerns; massive environmental impact, Greenhouse Gas emissions, and drain on natural resources through manufacture and transport; and long-term pollution. |
We believe SureAquaPak is the best filter of its type in the market place. What is SureAquaPak - it's an outstanding personal drinking water filter in terms of cost, purification, filtration, portability, and the environment. We invite you to dip, sip, and enjoy the many benefits.

Operating Instructions
For optimum results, submerge the inflow opening of the SureAquaPak in the receptacle holding water to a depth no greater than the high water mark shown on the outer casing of the Pak. Once submerged, simply sip through the mouthpiece as one normally sips through a standard Pak.
Once finished drinking the water, stand the Pak in an upright positon to drain to remove excess water then replace the mouthpiece. Once the product thoroughly dry, store the product in dry and cool conditions.
Note:The SureAquaPak is not designed to remove chemical contaminants, heavy metals or viruses contained in water.
Not to be used on water above 35 °C or below 2°C. Not to be damaged through tapping or heavily shaken, nor placing sharp objects inside the unit as it may damage the filter. Regularly wipe the exterior of the SureAquaPak with an anti-bacterial wipe after use, do not use if tip is still wet from the wipe.
Should the product not be reused within 5 days, the product should be cleaned and stored
Note:The SureAquaPak is not designed to remove chemical contaminants, heavy metals or viruses contained in water.
Cleaning and Maintenance Instructions
The filter membrane in the SureAquaPak acts like a micro-porous sieve that filters out particles in the drinking water including micro-organisms. Therefore, while in use, the SureAquaPak must be kept clean.
To clean, wipe exterior only, with anti bacterial wipes. When not in use, keep cap on mouth piece to maintain its integrity.
Do not strenuously shake the SureAquaPak to remove water residue. This will damage the filter membrane. Before the SureAquaPak is stored away, it must be cleaned (as stated above)
Then once cleaned, leave the unit in upright position in a well ventilated area to completely drain and dry. it must then be stored in a cool and dry place.
Laboratory Test Results
The SureAquaPak water quality test was carried out by NATA approved testing laboratories with the lab results confirming the Paks to be 99.9999% effective in filtering out coliforms/faecal coliforms, e-coli, staphylococcus, Cryptosporidium, Giardia, standard plate count bacteria, pseudomonas aeruginosa (bacteria causing respiratory tract infections), pseudomonas diminuta, and serratia marcescents (another form of bacteria). The water quality report confirmed SureAquaPak as an ideal drinking water filtration Pak for travel and drinking water related emergency and life-threatening situations where water must be treated for bacterial and protozoa contamination.
Though there are chlorine-based water tablets on the market, many are ineffective against parasite infection and give the water a foul taste, however, the SureAquaPak, manufactured to world-class quality standards, is chemical-free. Rather than using chemicals for water purification, the SureAquaPak drinking water Paks use an ultra fine 0.2 micron membrane – over 5 times greater than the US CDC recommendations – to provide pure filtered water.
The Australian Government Analytical approved Laboratory tested the Pak by passing water containing various bacteria and contaminants through to assess it removal capabilities. Well known microorganisms such as E-Coli, Cryptosporidium and Giardia are all successfully removed.
The “Filtered Pak” is manufactured using microfiltration membrane with nominal pore size of 0.2 micron.
Under certain conditions of chemical or viral contamination, a chorine-based disinfectant will be necessary, but used in conjunction with the SureAquaPak water purifier filters to remove parasitic cysts, and bacterial contamination, you can enjoy exceptional NATA approved laboratory tested, water filtration.
