Innova Personal Biological Water Filter Hits Target

CLEARWATER, FL. March 2002; Innova Pure Water, Inc (OTCBB: IPUR) disclosed an initial order from major distributor, Sawyer Products, of $535,000 for the personal, portable drinking water bottle with Innova's newly-patented biological filter.

Innova's highly effective biological filtration system provides quality drinking water from lakes and streams and their companion personal filter bottle is ideal for treating tap water; removing chlorine, lead, plus offensive taste and odor.

Innova, which has been a world leader in the field of portable and personal water filtration products, recently introduced their new personal travel / trekking / camping biological water filtration system that removes bacteria as well as the frequently encountered protozoan Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Innova products remove greater than 99.9999% of bacteria as tested, exceeding EPA requirements, outperforming similar products in the industry.

Sawyer Products of Safety Harbor, Florida, has been serving the mass consumer markets including drug stores, sporting goods and the travel industry since 1984. Delivery of the personal biological filter in a sport bottle configuration under the Sawyer brand name has begun with initial shipments to Target. Additional deliveries are scheduled for Wal-Mart, The Sports Authority, Bass Pro and other leading outdoor retailers.

Acceptance and interest in the initial Innova personal biological filter has been sufficiently intense to cause Innova to broaden the biological product line to encompass products for the military as well as a full range of outdoor sports activities including integration with hydration packs, canteens, and larger water reservoirs.
