Katadyn Water Filters Meet HydraPak Flexible Hydration
For over 10 years, Katadyn and HydraPak have brought together two specific areas of expertise: water filtration and flexible hydration.

Flexible Hydration Behind the Katadyn BeFree Water Filter
Products like the Katadyn BeFree demonstrate that integration directly, combining Katadyn’s EZ-Clean Membrane™ filter with a HydraPak-made flexible flask. The flask collapses as it empties, packs down when not in use and uses a wide opening for collecting water, while the filter allows users to drink directly from the container. The partnership also extends to higher-capacity systems like the Katadyn Gravity BeFree 3.0L, which uses an ultra-durable HydraPak 3L reservoir with a wide-mouth opening, integrated carry handle and collapsible construction, paired with Katadyn filtration that delivers up to 2 liters of filtered water per minute. By designing the flexible hydration vessel, whether it’s a reservoir or flask, to function as one system, Katadyn and HydraPak have helped make backcountry water treatment lighter, more packable and easier to use on the move.
