Design and Functionality
Platypus Tank is an extremely durable, ultra-compact replacement for use-and-toss water jugs, saving money and reducing waste. It has an easy-to-fill, wide-mouth zipper opening (which also makes for easy cleaning) and a sturdy nylon handle. When empty, the tank collapses flat for incredibly convenient storage and transport.

Use the tank to fill Platypus SoftBottles instead of disposable cups or rigid bottles. Available in 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 liters.

Materials
BPA-free nylon/Polyethylene

Sustainability
Single-use, disposable water containers (PET plastic) create millions of tons of unnecessary waste each year. According to the Container Recycling Institute, less than 15% of plastic water bottles in the U.S. are actually recycled. Using Platypus reusable bottles and tanks helps preserve natural resources while saving money in the process.

Great for everyday use

I use my Platypus every day, it's great for going out for a picnic or even just to keep on my third floor room for quick refills. I would highly recommend!

carries a lot of water easily and sits very stable while not in use. the ziplock top is very stiff...but you really don't need to use it when filtering or filling with piped water. big top opening makes drying easy. takes up very little room when empty.

Great water bottle, use it every day...very strong, and can take a beating without bursting....only wish is that the closing mechanism had some sort of blue and yellow makes green type of indicator so you can be absolutely sure it's closed. I use it mostly at work and just pour water throughout the day from my table...the handles are strong and bomb proof...great product
