Remove the cap from both bottles and add 12 drops of each liquid into one cap. Leave the solution for 10 minutes to react, the liquid will begin to turn yellow which is normal. Add the solution to 1 litre of water. If the water contains visible dirt or particles strain the liquid first through fine cotton or t-shirt material. Let the water stand for 10 minutes, or where heavy contamination is suspected 40 minutes before drinking. Dose rates and contact times vary with temperature. One pack treats up to 60 litres of water.

• Does what it says ...

• I am travelling to a region where there is untreated water, what should I do?

  Pack a water treatment product. If you are in any doubt about whether there will be access to clean drinking water, it’s best to arrive to your destination prepared. The simple addition of water treatment tablets can prevent dangerous bacteria ruining your trip and causing nasty stomach bugs, such as Travellers' Diarrhoea.

• What is Biox Aqua?

  Biox Aqua is an effective water treatment that uses the powerful chlorine dioxide biocide. It kills a wide range of bacteria and cysts in the water instantly, leaving no unpleasant after-taste or water dis-colouration. It is available in convenient tablet or droplet forms. 

• Does Biox Aqua completely remove bacteria in the water?

  That depends on how contaminated the water supply is to begin with. It is important to always try and find the cleanest, freshest water supply available and then follow the instructions on the label to filter out any particles from the water, before treating it with Biox Aqua. Biox Aqua water treatment has been formulated with sufficient chlorine dioxide biocide to kill levels of bacteria normally found in water supplies in developing countries. 

• Is chlorine dioxide more effective than chlorine?

  Yes, it is far superior to chlorine and leaves behind no unpleasant after-taste or water dis-colouration. Unlike chlorine, it is also effective against Cryptosporidium and Giardia, and does not create any cancer causing by-products.
