Fill up, sit back and let gravity give you clean water
If you’ve ever been the camper in charge of filtering water on a group backpacking or canoeing trip, you’ll know how much of a chore it can be. But thanks to the GravityWorks 2.0L Complete Kit from Platypus that’s all about to change. This ultralight, versatile water filter makes it quick and easy to treat water for up to four people, making it ideal for group trips. Simply fill the dirty reservoir and hang it up, allowing gravity to do the hard work – no need to pump or squeeze. It’s speedy too, with a filter rate of up to 1.5 litres of water per minute. The system also comes with a complete range of adapters and a high-capacity collapsible bottle, which makes it easy to configure the system however you like so it works for all your outdoor adventures.
Easily configure the system to your needs with the included 2.0L flexible water bottle and adapters for maximum versatility and adaptability
There’s no pumping. Just fill the dirty reservoir, hang it, and let gravity do the hard work
Filters up to 1.5 litres per minute
Every microfilter is individually tested to ensure it meets all EPA & NSF guidelines for the removal of 99.9999% of bacteria and 99.9% of protozoa
Each microfilter has a lifetime of up to 1,500 litres of water
The system can weigh as little as 6.3 oz. (180 g) and stows smaller than most 1L bottles (depending on configuration)
The microfilter can be easily backflushed in 4 seconds to maintain filter performance
Hundreds of tiny hollow fibres enable the microfilter to filter water faster than traditional filter designs
Collecting water is easy: simply open the top, scoop water and close. Control delivery of filtered water with the hose shut-off clamp

When it comes to doing anything active in the great outdoors, from trail running to backpacking, thirst is one of the biggest enemies. Without adequate hydration to fuel your body, you can’t perform at your best. And not only that – if you’re thirsty, you’re dehydrated. In the worst-case scenarios, that can become a life-threatening problem.
That’s why US brand Platypus made it their mission to offer the finest, adventure-ready hydration and water filtration products on the planet. They’ve now been at it for over 20 years, fine-tuning their designs to develop highly effective, durable and taste-free bottles, bladders and filters. They even have their own certified, world-class water laboratory, which enables them to research, develop and test innovative technologies for a variety of end uses, from town to trail.
It seems that when water geeks, lab technicians, researchers, designers, directors and worker bees come together, with a shared love for outdoor adventure, the result is H2awesome.
