What would your family drink if the tap stopped tomorrow?
Storms, outages and boil-water notices can cut off safe water in hours. Bottled water runs out. The Prepared72 Filter Straw turns the freshwater around you – rain, a creek, a lake or your stored water – into water you can drink.
- No power, batteries or chemicals
- Hollow-fiber membrane designed to filter bacteria, parasites and sediment
- Small enough for a drawer, glovebox or go-bag
Water is the first thing you lose in an emergency
Bottled water runs out and store shelves empty within hours. These are the moments a filter straw is made for.
Hurricanes & storms
When the water system goes down, the tap can stay off for days.
Power outages
No power can mean no well pump and no stove to boil water.
Boil-water notices
Contamination alerts can hit your town with zero warning.
Evacuations & trips
If you have to leave home, your water plan fits in your pocket.

Questions? We've got answers
What does it filter – and what doesn't it?
The hollow-fiber membrane is designed to filter bacteria, parasites and sediment from freshwater sources such as rainwater, creeks, lakes or stored water.
It does not remove viruses, chemicals, heavy metals or salt. Don't use it with seawater, pool water or chemically contaminated water, and always follow local health authority guidance.
How is this different from boiling water?
Boiling needs a working stove, fuel and time – things you may not have in a power outage. The filter straw works anywhere, instantly, with no power and no fire.
How many should I get?
We recommend one per person, plus one for each car. Emergencies don't wait until everyone is home together – that's why most families choose a multi-pack.
What's in the box?
The Prepared72 filter straw, a collapsible water bag, a drinking tube and a cleaning syringe.
How long can it sit in a drawer? How do I clean it?
It's purely mechanical – nothing to charge and no chemicals to expire. Keep it dry and protect it from freezing. After each use, push clean water back through it with the syringe.
When will my order arrive?
Orders are processed in 1–3 business days and usually arrive in 7–12 business days with free tracked shipping. You'll get your tracking number by email.
