RecPak Announces Game-Changing Packaging Update:
August 26, 2025

Enhanced Spout Now Compatible with Sawyer Squeeze Water Filters
August 25, 2025 /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – RecPak, the veteran-founded company behind the outdoor industry’s most convenient complete meal solution, today announced a significant packaging enhancement that transforms how adventurers approach backcountry nutrition and hydration. The updated RecPak pouch features an enlarged mouth spout that not only improves the user experience for filling and drinking, but now provides seamless compatibility with Sawyer Squeeze water filters.
This engineering breakthrough means outdoor professionals and adventurers can now use their empty RecPak pouch as an additional collapsible water reservoir, a BPA-free backup that threads perfectly onto the Sawyer Squeeze’s 28mm connection for reliable water filtration in any environment.
“When you’re operating in unforgiving terrain for days on end, every piece of gear needs to earn its place in your pack,” said Deed Ziegler, RecPak founder and Marine Corps veteran. “Achieving this compatibility while maintaining the pouch’s durability and our stringent food safety standards required extensive testing. Now your RecPak doesn’t just fuel your mission, it can help keep you hydrated with clean water long after the meal is finished.”
Engineered for Performance, Tested in the Field
The enhanced spout design addresses three critical improvements based on extensive field testing and user feedback:
- Easier Fill: The enlarged opening significantly reduces spillage and speeds up mixing, crucial when working with limited water sources
- Improved Flow: Enhanced spout geometry provides better drinking experience whether consuming directly from the pouch or transferring to bottles
- Universal Compatibility: Perfect threading with Sawyer Squeeze filters transforms the durable pouch into a functional water reservoir
Proven Nutrition Meets Backcountry Versatility
RecPak’s core mission remains unchanged: delivering 700 calories of nutritionally complete fuel designed by top endurance sports nutritionists. Each pouch contains 43 grams of protein, balanced macronutrients, and essential vitamins and minerals, all in a package that fits in your pocket and requires only water to activate.
The integration with Sawyer Squeeze technology creates a powerful combination for backcountry users, eliminating the need for additional collapsible water containers while providing reliable water filtration capabilities.
Availability
The enhanced RecPak pouches are now shipping across all sales channels, including direct-to-consumer orders through recpak.co, Amazon, and select outdoor retailers nationwide. All three flavors: Chocolate, Vanilla Chai, and Coffee (caffeinated) – feature the new spout.
