Product details

When and how to use Micropur Forte:

  • When traveling, it's most common to get sick from drinking contaminated water. Gastrointestinal infectious diseases (such as diarrhea, cholera, typhoid fever, giardiasis, amebiasis, etc.) and liver diseases (such as hepatitis A) are all spread by microorganisms in water. This can happen anywhere, even in water that looks clean, clear, and odorless.
  • Micropur Forte contains a quantitative and stable amount of chloride and silver ions. The correct concentration of chlorine can quickly and effectively eliminate bacteria and viruses, while silver ions can prevent re-contamination of water for up to six months.
  • Suitable for purifying water in collection tanks. For best results, the water container must be sealed and protected from direct sunlight.

Usage Restrictions:

  • Only use in clear water. Turbid water must first be filtered using a Katadyn portable filtration system.
  • We do not recommend using aluminum containers for water storage, nor dissolving the powder in small amounts of water.

How to use:

  • Add 1 Micropur Forte tablet to 1 liter of clear water, wait 10 minutes for the tablet to dissolve, shake well and wait another 20 minutes (30 minutes in total) to eliminate bacteria and viruses.
  • The effectiveness of Micropur Forte depends on water quality and temperature. When the water is very cold, allow a 2-hour wait. If protozoa such as Giardia are suspected, the manufacturer recommends using a Katadyn filter instead.

  • Highly toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects.
