Sawyer Products is on a mission to keep you safe and healthy on any outdoor journey – and to pay that forward to communities in need. Since 1984 they’ve been innovating top-notch water filters, insect repellents, and first aid gear right out of Florida. Hikers and campers swear by the ultralight Sawyer Squeeze and Mini filters, which let you drink from wild streams and lakes with 0.1-micron filtration (no more lugging heavy water jugs!). In fact, Sawyer’s filters can treat up to 100,000 gallons of water and remove 99.99999% of bacteria – they’re built for the long haul and harsh conditions. But what really sets Sawyer apart is their humanitarian heart: in 2008 they launched a Clean Water for All initiative, and they now devote 90% of their profits to donating water filters globally. Through partnerships with 140+ charities in over 80 countries, Sawyer filters are providing clean drinking water to millions who need it – even helping make Liberia the first developing nation with 100% access to clean water. Their credo “We keep you outdoors” applies to everyone: whether it’s a backpacker in the Rockies or a family in a village without running water, Sawyer’s products are protecting people from waterborne illness, mosquitoes, sun, and more. In short, Sawyer is that reliable friend in your pack that also happens to be changing the world, one filter at a time.
