The UZ-BP backpack system was developed for situations where buckets are hard to source or impractical to transport. Developed for rapid deployment in emergency situations, the UZ-BP is a complete water filtration system, ready to use when disaster strikes, but durable enough to last for many years afterward.  

Using our popular UZ-1 filter, attached to a 17.5L (4.5 gallon) heavy duty water-safe vinyl backpack, the UZ-BP is ideal for emergency relief situations, where it can be stored compactly and deployed quickly to those in need. Usage instructions are printed directly onto the bag, with visual illustrations of each step in the assembly and cleaning processes, making large-scale distributions quick, easy, and effective. Because it uses the UZ-1 filter, the UZ-BP has the same advantages over other filtration products. It filters over 99.99997% of the bacteria that cause waterborne disease, is easy to use and maintain, and will provide ample clean water for an individual or family for years to come.

UZ-BP water filters are sold to non-profit organizations in quantities of 25 units.
