Your cart is empty.Originally designed for laboratory work, Whirl-Pak bags make great emergency water collection, purification, and storage bags, and are also great for storing food. They're completely sterile and food-safe, and will not leach harmful chemicals into your water or food supply. They are shipped sealed; you can always tell that your bag is completely sterile and has never been used, since you have to remove a perforated tab prior to use. Each bag has a writable area for you to add notes ("non-potable" for instance). Whirl-Pak bags are ideal for survival kits, because they roll to very compact dimensions, weigh very little, and are incredibly tough. Several US Military Kits specify Whirl-Pak bags for emergency water collection, treatment, and storage. They can even be used to make an improvised solar vegetation still. The 4.0 mil wall thickness means that this is a durable bag, extremely resistant to puncture or tearing. These bags stand on their own thanks the gusseted bottom construction. This means you're unlikely to spill precious sterilized water. They are safe for use with chlorine tablets, iodine tablets, or UV purification systems.

These are thick and will be reusable. Much thicker than a standard ziplock bag. The roll top seals the bag and can allow them to be carried in a pouch or cargo pocket. I watched quite a few YouTube videos where these were used and I agree they are tough and lightweight for any survival kit.

These are soft and flimsy bags. They can hold water. “Soft and flimsy” also means light weight and easy to stash in go bags, camping and hiking packs, etc. Glad I have these. For emergency use (hope I never need them).

We take a few of these backcountry camping and they are great for storing our clean water in or making a little bit of powdered milk in for cooking. We can shake them like crazy and reuse them for pretty well for a 3 day trip.

I actually used one to give some tropical fish to a friend work well as they stand upright great. Told him to reuse the bag for same purpose.

The bags definitely do not leak if closed the right way. I have only used two so far mainly to keep my phone and electronics safe from water damage. They work incredibly well. For the quality, the price is really good. I highly recommend these.

Based on my experience with this product, I recommend it as an emergency water container. It is light weight, takes us very little space and appears to be durable. I purchased a three pack of these earlier this year for my emergency bag for my car. I tested one out to see how well the product would work. I filled it with water and then treated the water with potable aqua tabs. i wanted to see if the chemicals in the tabs would react with the plastic. I could not observe any reaction and once I emptied and dried the bag i put it back in the trunk of my car for the summer. Last week I tested it again, no leaks or discoloration observed. I order six more and will put them in my wife's get home bag that we keep in her car and in the get home/emergency bag for my work and personal car.

These bags designed for Lab use work great for emergency water collection, treatment and storage. They pack small and will "stand" when full. the closure is a wire fold-over and bends to hold it shut is fine, however, it isn't watertight. Put a couple in your personal survival kit (PSK) along with water treatment tablets and you'll have a convenient solution to water storage and treatment.
