The product is lightweight, practical, and well made.
Katadyn BeFree AC Bottle with filter 700 ml - Blue
Filtering bottle with a capacity of 700 ml, equipped with a BeFree EZ-Clean membrane filter designed for purifying tap water and natural sources like streams and creeks. Thanks to its durable construction and low weight, it is ideal for hiking, mountain expeditions, and outdoor use.
The applied filter effectively removes microorganisms, chemicals, and microplastics, as well as improves the taste and smell of water, providing easy access to safe drinking water.
2-step filtration system
The model includes a 2-step purification system based on the BeFree EZ-Clean membrane and a replaceable activated carbon insert. This solution allows for effective removal of biological contaminants and simultaneous improvement of filtered water quality:
- Step 1 - uses the Hollow Fiber membrane with an efficiency of 0.1 micron (0.0001 mm), which effectively removes bacteria, protozoa, cysts, chemicals, and microplastics. The filter is capable of filtering up to 1000 litres depending on the source quality, with a flow rate reaching up to 2 litres per minute.
- Step 2 - responsible for reducing chlorine, removing unpleasant odour, and improving taste through the use of a replaceable activated carbon insert. The efficiency of this part is up to 200 litres.
Easy filter cleaning, possibility of replacing carbon insert
BeFree EZ-Clean membrane is designed for quick and convenient cleaning without the need for additional tools or backwashing. Simply shake the filter or rinse it in water, which significantly eases operation during field trips and reduces maintenance time of the filtration system.
The activated carbon insert can be easily replaced or removed in cases where taste improvement is unnecessary, for example when using clean mountain sources. This allows for the extension of insert lifespan and better adaptability of the filtration method to current conditions.
durable construction and handle
Model made from durable material in blue colour. The flexible structure allows bottle compression, facilitating water flow and making drinking easier without needing a strong suction. The bottle features an ergonomic shape that fits perfectly in hand, enhancing comfort during walking, training, or outdoor activities.
The diameter of 75 mm ensures a comfortable and secure grip, making it easier to use the bottle during activities requiring frequent hydration. The height of 236 mm and low weight of 93 g make the model handy, easy to transport, and it does not take up much space in the equipment. Its compact dimensions allow for convenient carrying in a backpack or bag without excessive burden.
mouthpiece with a tight cap
Solid cap protects the filter from contamination and minimises the risk of accidental leakage during bottle transport. The model is equipped with a silicone mouthpiece, which can be easily removed for cleaning or replacement.

The filtering bottle is light and very practical; it works great during trips or outdoor excursions. The filter effectively removes the unpleasant taste from the water, which is especially noticeable when using water from natural sources. Its flexible design is very convenient – when the bottle is empty, it can be easily folded and stored away. The cap truly doesn’t let any water through.
