Water Treatment and Transport
Your Camping Shop carries the number one name in
water treatment for camping, hunting, backpacking,
hiking or survival. That name is Katadyn. Katadyn is the
most respected name in clean water for campers, hikers,
hunters, outdoorsman and in survival situations.
Katadyn has been developing drinking water
purification products since 1928. Katadyn is the world
leader today in innovation and durability in travel
water filters and purifiers. The Katadyn water treatment
systems are used by hikers, campers, outdoorsman,
expeditionary, backpackers and even the military. We at
Your Camping Shop believe that Katadyn water treatment
systems are the very best for outdoor adventurers and we
are proud to have Katadyn in our product line.
The outdoorsman public think of water treatment for
outdoor use only. Sounds confusing, let me explain.
Water treatment is a necessity for the traveling public,
(businessman, vacationers etc.) who stay at hotels, R.V.
campsites, visitors to other countries and even visiting
different areas of the USA. We, as the traveling public,
do not know what is in the water we get from spiquots,
ice cubes or even in some bottled waters. If you’ve ever
been stricken with a case of Montezuma’s revenge, you
know what I’m speaking of. We at Your Camping Shop
believe that Katadyn and Micropur purification products
(which is owned by Katadyn) is the top all around
survival water treatment product manufacturer.
The World Health Organization states that 80 percent
of all travel related diseases can be attributed to
contaminated drinking water. Your Camping Shop stocks
katadyn, micropur, steriPEN water filters, purifiers and
purifier accessories.
If you’re a backpacker, hiker, hunter, camper, R.V.er,
traveler, or survivalist, a water purification/treatment
system by katadyn, micropur or steriPEN should be part
of travel accessories.
My husband was in South Florida when Hurricane “Andrew”
wiped out thousands of homes. The public water systems
were ruined and drinking water was not available. Water
was everywhere, but none of it was drinkable. This is a
pure survival situation where the heat and humidity was
causing people to drop from heat exhaustion/heat stroke
and thirst. Water could not be trucked in initially due
to all the roads being blocked with debris. My husband
said he is relating this story (which is true) to
explain that by being prepared for Florida’s Hurricane
season, some of the deaths, sickness and suffering may
have been avoided. Most folks will prepare by buying a
generator, cell phone, canned food, matches etc. This is
all necessary and great to have. My husband advised me,
that he spoke to no one who had prepared for “no
drinking water”.
It was after realizing that the most important staple
of life is was clean water, he (we) decided to research
portable water treatment and purification systems. The
name most used by all the various outdoorsman and
survival enthusisists was “Katadyn”. For the next 12
years, while living in Florida, we had Katadyn water
purification systems, from the bottle type to the Base
Camp Microfilter in our hurricane survival kit.
The Katadyn Exstream XR water purifier bottle allows
tainted water to flow thru a three stage filtration
system. This liter sized purification bottle has a
EPA-registered microbial purification cartridge. During
a trip, hike, vacation, etc., this easy to carry and
handle system will provide you with complete
antimicrobial protection against cysts, bacteria and
viruses. This simply means with the use of the Katadyn
Exstream XR purifier bottle, you can have clean, safe
water where ever you travel.
Your Camping Shop is proud to carry the Katadyn
“Endurance Series” of water treatment/purification
products. The Katadyn Endurance Series is the ultimate
in reliability and durability. These products, such as
the Katadyn Pocket, Combi, Expeditions, Drip Ceradyn/Drip
Gravidyn and Siphon series of products can produce up to
100 times more water than standard filters.
The Backcountry Series of Katadyn water treatment
products is what the line indicates. This katadyn line
up is more ideal for camping, backpacking and trekking.
These Katadyn water treatment items are compact,
lightweight and easy to use safe water makers. Your
Camping Shop carries the Hiker, Hiker Pro, Vario and
Base Camp water treatment products in the Backcountry

Your Camping Shop also has the Ultralight Series of
water bottles and water systems. These Ultralight
Katadyn products are most useful for 1 person or on
business trips, in hotels or outdoors. The Katadyn
Ultralight Series includes the “Extream Bottle
Purifier”, the “Exstream XR” bottle Purifier, the
“MicroBottle” and the “Mini Filter”. If its “Katadyn”,
Your Camping Shop has it available for you!
We at Your Camping Shop are also proud to carry the
SteriPEN U.V. water purifiers. The SteriPEN “Adventure
U.V. water purifier” is capable of purifying 1 liter of
water in 90 seconds. This U.V. water purifier kills
99.9999 % of bacteria (such as Salmonella & E Coli),

Cryptosporidium. The SteriPEN Adventure U.V. water
purifier operates on two CR123 batteries, is light

Your Camping Shop also provides water treatment
chemicals for your water treatment needs. Katadyn’s
Micropur MP1 Purification Tablets, MicroPur tablets and
Coghlans emergency Germicidal Drinking Water tablets are
part of out Chemical water treatment line.
It is said that “man” can survive 30-45days without
food, but, only 3 to 5 days without water. Why be
without clean water. With the Katadyn, and Micopur
products Your Camping Shop has available for you, your
clean water needs can always be met. Keep a Katadyn,
Micropur or SteriPEN product with you at home, on the
road or in the Backcountry. Remember, at Your Camping
Shop, Katadyn and clean water are one and the same!
