Sawyer Unveils SP120 MINI Water Filter Ahead of National Preparedness Month

Safety Harbor, FL – August 15, 2024 – Sawyer, a pioneer in water filtration and outdoor protection, announced today the new compact SP120 MINI water filter released in advance of September’s National Preparedness Month. Priced at $16.99 MSRP, this compact filter is a streamlined version of Sawyer’s best-selling MINI water filtration system. Capable of filtering up to 100,000 gallons of water, the SP120 is easy to maintain with the included cleaning plunger and can be used directly at any water source or attached to a standard 28 mm disposable bottle or hydration pack. Much like backup batteries, a compact water filter like Sawyer’s SP120 is an essential addition to any home emergency kit, go-bag, or bug-out bag.

Available through Amazon and Walmart.com, the SP120 MINI water filter is designed for convenience and reliability by removing 99.99999% of bacteria, like salmonella, as well as other harmful bacteria that cause cholera and E. coli and 99.9999% of protozoa such as giardia and cryptosporidium. Housing an award-winning cluster of micro-fibrous tubes, similar to technology found in medical dialysis, Sawyer’s removal rates exceed any other filter options on the market, EPA guidelines, and removes 100% of microplastics.

Weighing only two ounces and easily fitting into the palm of your hand, the SP120 MINI water filter is designed to be prepared for the unexpected and is the only filter of its kind that can be easily restored to its initial flow through backwashing in heavy-use scenarios with an included cleaning plunger. The small size allows it to be seamlessly integrated into any home kit, glove compartment, or backpack and ensures long-term security and peace of mind. The SP120 MINI water filter, like all Sawyer’s water filter models, is put through rigorous testing through the Sawyer Standard, where every filter is tested three times to assure ultimate reliability.
