Specification Brand : Forest Fundamentals BulletPoint : 90 micron BulletPoint1 : Introducing the Forest Fundamentals Millbank Bag, Second Edition! We retained the same proportions as the original British Forces bags, but after testing, we made a few design modifications, including: BulletPoint2 : The Second Edition Millbank Bag: Now featuring taped seams and double overlock stitching, we've significantly enhanced its durability to reduce leakage. The waterproof carrying bags have been upgraded with reinforced stitching for added strength. BulletPoint3 : The bag is handmade from a thicker 12oz unbleached cotton canvas. Unbleached canvas has not undergone any chemical treatments, it’s safer for the environment and us. We tested various material thicknesses and densities till we found the ideal balance between filtration level and rate. BulletPoint4 : The lanyard is made from 550 ‘Survival Cord’ featuring a strand of wax-infused cotton. This provides a backup tinder source that ignites easily with a Ferro Rod, burns slowly, and remains lit in strong winds or rain. BulletPoint5 : The extended 1-meter / 40-inch lanyard and carabiner clip enables easy positioning of the bag near the collection device, reducing spillage from the bag swaying in strong winds and saving time finding the perfect low-hanging branch! BulletPoint6 : We’ve also added a 210D waterproof Nylon drawing carrying bag. This pouch allows for quick packing and transportation of the bag after use, preventing the inside of your pack from getting soaked! BulletPoint7 : Our Millbank Bag is larger than other models, allowing for the filtration of more water at once. We've used highly durable, waterproof, and non-toxic dyes for the printing. BulletPoint8 : What is a Millbank Bag? A Millbank Bag is a water filtration device, designed to remove detritus including sand, mud, silt, and other suspended particulates from water. Even if there is no waterborne diseases present, consuming turbid water can irritate and harm the digestive system Detailed instructions are also included. BulletPoint9 : Disclaimer: We've received questions about the absence of taped seams at the bottom of the bag. This is intentional, as thick seams can reduce the filtration rate. Rest assured, this does not compromise the bag's quality.

However, they’ve become increasingly harder to find and those we did manage to get our hands on showed signs of extensive wear, stains, and oil residue so we decided to start making our own!

What is a Millbank Bag? A Millbank Bag is a water filtration device, designed to remove detritus including sand, mud, silt, and other suspended particulates from water. Eliminating these elements before further sterilisation is crucial. Even if there is no waterborne diseases present, consuming turbid water can irritate and harm the digestive system. Using a Millbank Bag will also increase the lifespan and effectiveness of other water sterilisation systems including the well-known Life Straw, for example. Please note, a Millbank Bag only filters out pathogenic organisms if they are attached to the detritus it removes. Therefore, additional sanitation methods like chemical or heat sterilisation are necessary.
Please note, a Millbank Bag only filters out pathogenic organisms if they are attached to the detritus it removes. Therefore, additional sanitation methods like chemical or heat sterilisation are necessary. If the water source is already clear with no detritus, using a Millbank bag offers little benefit. However, few of us are lucky enough to find such water sources out in the field!
