Safer water, wherever you are

Drinking contaminated water can cause a long list of illnesses you cannot see coming. BCB Water Purifying Tablets give you a simple, proven way to reduce that risk in the field, on exercise or while travelling. Each chlorine-based tablet treats one litre and helps neutralise the bacteria that make untreated water dangerous.

Simple to use

Filter your water to remove sediment first, drop in one tablet per litre, and allow the recommended contact time before drinking. The twin pack contains 2 x 50 tablets, so you have 100 doses ready to go.

Trusted and NATO approved

These are the same BCB tablets trusted for military use, NATO approved under NSN 6850-99-2589157. That pedigree makes them a reliable choice when the stakes are high and clean water is not guaranteed.

A kit-bag essential

Compact and lightweight, they belong in every survival tin, grab bag, expedition pack and travel kit. Browse more survival and field gear at Platoon Stores.

The chlorine-based formula neutralises bacteria and helps protect against water-transmitted illnesses, reducing contamination in filtered water.

Should I filter the water first?
