Water Bags for immediate water distribution in an emergency situation

Water Bags were developed to solve problems of water distribution during emergency situation. The bags are small and light and therefore easy for transportation. Once on the spot, the water bags allow fast distribution of treated water in safe and durable plastic containers. In addition, the water bags close the circle starting from water pumping, water treatment on the spot and finally safe distribution to the people affected by the water crisis.

Extremely compact
Water Bags are collapsible. The empty bags have near-zero volume. This allows efficient storing and forwarding in massive quantity. In fact, they occupy at least 20 times less storage place than jerrycans. This means that one truck can carry approx. 120’000 Water Bags to emergency situations, enough to distribute 480’000 litre of water.
The similar capacity would require at least 20 trucks to deliver 4 litre plastic jerrycans. Besides the effective aspects on storing and transportation, that’s also a substantial relief on affected infrastructure.

Durable
Water Bags are efficient and environment friendly. They are made of resilient and flexible food-grade laminates that will not leach into the water. They can hold water up to 100°C and resist freezing (-20°C).

Ergonomic
Water Bags are easy to fill and use, featuring a handle for carrying water safely over long distances and an adjustable spout for easy drinking and dispensing. Water Bags are collapsible, can be folded and stored in pockets, back packs or bags.

Supplement
Water Bags supplement the solar powered water treatment plants of Trunz Water Systems. The plants are designed to provide relief to communities and camps affected by a lack of power supply and safe drinking water. The Trunz Water Systems can purify water from almost any polluted freshwater source, including rivers, creeks and wells.
