Uniflow Flextendable Straws (previously called Flextendable Straws) are useful mobility aids?that have a valve in the base that keeps the liquid in the straw between sips. These mobility aids?help to reduce air intake when drinking through a straw. These are ideal for both adults and children who find it difficult to maintain suction.
Such individuals include those with severe asthma, or other breathing difficulties. The presence of the valve in the straw base slightly reduces the liquid flow rate compared with standard straws of this diameter.?The valve system keeps liquid in the straw between sips. This reduces the need for constant suction.
Due to the nature of the suction action relating to the valve, these straws are unsuitable for use with fizzy, or thick drinks, such as thick milkshakes.
These one way straws are extra long at 28cm (5.9 inches) and can be extended to be 34cm (13 inches) thanks to a large flexible section. An innovative design that is easier to use than a regular straw
These?Uniflow Flextendable Straws can be reused between drinks if washed.?The straws come in a?mix of colours and a pack of 15.
