FloWater Reaches a Remarkable Milestone in Environmental Conservation
FloWater, a pioneer in hydration solutions, has recently celebrated a significant achievement: the saving of
one billion plastic water bottles from entering landfills, rivers, and oceans since the company was launched in 2013. This milestone reflects the company's commitment to providing eco-friendly alternatives to single-use plastic bottles, driven by a growing consumer preference for sustainable options in their daily lives.
The Journey Towards One Billion Saved Bottles
Since its inception, FloWater has focused on transforming the tap water experience through its innovative Refill Stations. These stations utilize
7-stage Advanced Osmosis purification technology, which not only eliminates hazardous impurities such as PFAS (forever chemicals), heavy metals, and microplastics but also enhances the water with added electrolytes and beneficial trace minerals. This results in better-tasting, ultra-purified water that satisfies consumers’ thirst while prioritizing their health and well-being.
As of today, more than
12,000 locations—including schools, hotels, fitness centers, and workplaces—across the United States have adopted FloWater Refill Stations, converting ordinary tap water into a delightful hydration source. Rich Razgaitis, CEO and Co-Founder of FloWater, expressed his pride in achieving this monumental milestone, emphasizing the role of their partners in promoting this revolutionary experience.
A Collaborative Effort Across Industries
The success of FloWater is marked by the collaboration of numerous institutions that have embraced the initiative. For instance, in the Albuquerque Public School District, students are not only educated about the benefits of drinking purified water but are also encouraged to use reusable bottles, significantly reducing plastic waste. John Dufay, Assistant Deputy of Operations, remarked on how students are now consuming more water due to its improved taste and safety, contributing positively to their health and academic performance.
In the hospitality sector, there is a notable shift towards zero-waste policies. Miraval Resorts, renowned for its wellness focus, provides guests with reusable water bottles upon arrival while highlighting their support for FloWater's environmental efforts. Mark Stebbings, General Manager at Miraval Arizona Resort & Spa, reiterated that their implementation not only elevates the guest experience but also underscores their commitment to sustainability.
Furthermore, in the retail sector, companies like Rothy's have integrated FloWater stations in their stores, not just to offer quality hydration but to multiply their environmental impact by engaging consumers in sustainable practices. Rothy’s commitment to sustainability is evident, having already diverted over
200 million plastic bottles from landfills through their product offerings.
Looking Ahead: Beyond One Billion
As FloWater celebrates this remarkable milestone, there is a forward-looking vision for future achievements. The company plans to launch a holiday awareness campaign titled
'FloWater, Always Unwrapped' aimed at highlighting the negative implications of plastic waste. By educating consumers, FloWater seeks to further inspire individuals and businesses to choose sustainable hydration methods over traditional bottled beverages wrapped in plastic.
As they continue to pave the way for sustainable hydration, FloWater remains dedicated to leading the charge against plastic pollution, striving for a future where clean and safe drinking water does not come at the expense of the environment. With the unwavering support of its users and partners, the company aims to save the next billion bottles and beyond, reinforcing its position as a leader in the fight against plastic waste.
