LifeStraw's membrane microfilters are made from hollow fiber membrane technology – a similar technology used in kidney dialysis. These membranes are made of tiny straws that contain microscopic pores 0.2 micrometers in diameter. Dirty water enters one side of the straws and clean water passes through the pores, while bacteria, parasites, microplastics, dirt and other types of turbidity are blocked and unable to pass through because they are too large. The result is that safe drinking water flows into a clean chamber for drinking while contaminants are blocked.
