It is very difficult to purify water quickly, effectively and affordably so that it is safe to drink. More than 50 percent of the water supply projects in the developing world fail.
Boiling water, the “standard” approach to supplying pure water in developing countries, is expensive and time-consuming. Conventional means of obtaining safe water, such as wells, do not solve the problem. Research data from the Centers for Disease Control and studies by Professor P. Jagals of the University of Johannesburg repeatedly show that jugs used to carry water home and to store the water are sources of recontamination, rendering the water unsafe, even though it may be relatively safe at the wellhead.
 
The solution to safe drinking water is point-of-use water purification products, located in the home, that filter out dirt, sediment, cysts and contaminants and also purify the water.
 
Unfortunately, the majority of current point-of-use water treatment systems available in developing countries do not completely rid the water of hazardous bacteria and viruses.
 
With HaloPure technology, affordable, safe drinking water is now a reality. HaloPure goes even further than purifying water; it provides a low-level halogen residual that also ensures safer storage of purified water, without adding objectionable chemical tastes or odors. In addition, HaloPure products are inexpensive, safe, simple to use and convenient.
