FARNHAM, England, September 24 /PRNewswire/ --

RAF Typhoon Eurofighter pilots now have access to an emergency water 
drinking facility in the event of them having to eject thanks to a new 
contract between water purification and filtration specialists, 
Pure Hydration, and the UK Ministry of Defence (MOD.)  Pure Hydration is 
to supply the MOD with an initial 600 units of its innovative water 
purification solution, 'H2O-TO-GO'

The advantages of the 'H2O-TO-Go' bag for pilots who find themselves in
alien territory are immense. This easy-to-use and lightweight product at just
110 grammes gives pilots the capability to access or create safe drinking
water, on demand for up to several weeks. In a recent conflict a coalition
pilot had to survive for seven days in hostile territory before friendly
forces effected a successful rescue.

The Typhoon is a single-seat combat fighter capable of flying at speeds
of up to Mach 2 and a symbol of European co-operation involving the leading
aerospace companies of Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK. The plane's
cutting-edge technology makes it one of the most advanced and manoeuvrable
fighters in the world.

Equally important, however, is the welfare and safety of the pilots, with
an essential consideration being access to drinkable water in an emergency.

Working closely with the MOD's Defence Equipment and Support Agency, Pure
Hydration has developed the 'H2O-TO-GO' bag which fits neatly under the
pilot's ejector seat.

Drawing on much of the advanced water purification and filtration
technology that goes into our other products, this new Pure Hydration
solution can produce up to 350 litres of safe drinking water from water
sources of almost any quality.

The key to the success of Pure Hydration's products is the advanced
filtration technology which removes microscopic pathogens and other cysts and
spores. It also removes most toxic chemicals and heavy metals as well as
removing bad taste, odours and sediment.

'H2O-TO-GO' and other water purification products in the Pure Hydration
range have been rigorously tested by the London School of Hygiene and
Tropical Medicine. They are endorsed by the London Hospital for Tropical
Diseases as well as being approved and used by the armed forces of many
countries around the world.
