Perfect for backpacking or travel. This portable container is shaped to fit your hand and weighs 80% less than conventional hard plastic bottles.

BPA FREE!

platypus soft bottle

Soft Bottle

There’s not a hard bottle out there that’s cleaner, greener, and more flexible than a Platypus SoftBottle. Each one comes with our Clean-Taste Guarantee™ and it’s made with zero BPA. The SoftBottle is green, too, because it’s ultra-reusable and lightweight, it uses less energy and materials.

Finally, your SoftBottle defines flexible. It fits in a drink holder, a round pocket, a flat pocket, or any hand. When empty, it rolls up and fits anywhere you want it to fit. Plus, it weighs 80% less than hard hydration bottles.

platypus holster

Holster 1L

A unique and versatile all-in-one offering, the Platypus Platy PlusBottle Holster includes a 1.0 liter Platy PlusBottle and an insulated carrier. The BPA-free Platypus Platy PlusBottle is a grip-friendly, free-standing version of the now classic Platy Bottle and the Cordura fabric of the Holster ensures that contents stay cool in warm weather and remain unfrozen in coloder temperatures.

Building on the innovative design features of the original Platy Bottle, the Platy PlusBottle incorporates a tapered mid-section and an integrated grab/hang loop that makes it even more convenient for drinking and stashing in or lashing to your backpack. A SlimeGuard antimicrobial treatment ensures that water remains fresh and taste-free.

Providing a quick and secure attachment point for waistbelts or pack straps, the carrier's iintegrated strap also allows the PlatyPlus Bottle Holster to provide hands-on hydration for walkers or runners.

Filtration & Storage

platypus Clean Stream Filter

Clean Stream Filter

The GravityWorks Pump-Free Water Filtration System delivers the same fast, pump-free performance of the revolutionary CleanStream microfilter, yet with even less weight and more ease. Using advanced, Hollow Fiber technology and a little physics, it allows you to collect, transport, filter and dispense water, easier and faster than any other system available. An all new filter housing and streamlined Clean reservoir shave two ounces off an already wickedly light filtration system, and a straightforward, modular design presents customizable options for further trimming weight on ultralight journeys.

platypus Replacement Cartridge

Replacement Cartridge

Effective down to .2 microns and meets EPA Guide Standards for the removal of bacteria and protozoa. Approximate filter life of 1500L depending on quality of water filtered.

platypus water tank

Water Tank 4L & 6L

Having a few extra gallons of water around just makes things easier. Unfortunately, having a giant, empty container around doesn’t. Therein lies the beauty of our Water Tanks. Collapsible by nature, they pack flat for efficient packing and our Big Zip™ opening makes filling and cleaning a breeze. The biggest, 6L tank weighs a mere 4.4 oz (124g), making it just as practical for group backpacks and river trips as it is for summers on the road. New features include our new, more durable film, a lower, more stable design and reinforced handles for easy carrying.
