Sawyer Mini filter is one of the lightest and smallest travel water filters in the world. It uses hollow microfibers, with membrane walls featuring pore sizes of up to 0,1 microns. With its extremely low weight (40 g), high efficiency (99,999%), and long lifespan (378 000 liters), it ranks among the best in the world.

The filter contains a large number of hollow U-shaped microfibers that trap contaminants while allowing the flow of clean, decontaminated water. The pore size is 0,1 microns; meaning anything larger is captured in the microfibers.
The Sawyer Micro Squeeze filter guarantees the removal of 99,99999% of all harmful bacteria (Salmonella, cholera, E. coli, etc.), parasitic protozoa (Giardia and Cryptosporidium), and 100% of microplastics.
Compared to the SAWYER SQUEEZE filter, it is smaller, 30 grams lighter, and has a slightly slower flow rate (about 1,2 – 1,5 l/min). Sawyer guarantees a filter lifespan of more than 378 000 liters with regular maintenance.

Protect the filter from freezing. If water freezes inside, it could damage the microfibers. From time to time, backflush the filter using the provided syringe with clean water, flushing in the opposite direction of filtration. Ideally, do this after every trip.
