New eco-friendly water bottle with patented filter technology is designed to reduce waste and cost
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ — Today, nkd AQUA (www.nkdaqua.com), unveils AQUA POD, the only water bottle with a patented filter that turns ordinary tap water into mountain quality spring water.
Designed in Great Britain and manufactured in the United States, AQUA POD is an ergonomically designed water bottle, incorporating a patented FILTRON system. The FILTRON removes 99.9% of bacteria, chlorine and odor from any tap water, in addition to supercharging water with the optimal level of natural minerals and electrolytes as found in mountain springs. This filtration process produces the purest, cleanest drinking water, optimizing hydration.
"We were able to recreate the same water as found in natural mountain springs, all within one bottle. We combined our eco-friendly system with an ergonomic easy grip design to create a bottle that reduces waste and saves anyone drinking conventional bottled mineral water thousands of dollars a year," said Piush Soni, founder of nkd AQUA.
In the U.S. alone, 1,500 plastic water bottles are consumed every second; 70% of these bottles will never be recycled, with 38 billion plastic bottles ending up in landfills every year. A single AQUA POD eliminates the need for 300 disposable water bottles; each AQUA POD filter lasts approximately 2 months, (175 liters) and is fully recyclable, saving money and the planet.
AQUA POD is loaded with features, which include:
- Easy change patented FILTRON filter – a layer of the highest quality 100% pure activated coconut carbon removes contaminates including heavy metals, chlorine, taste and odor, without stripping the water of its natural minerals. Rare volcanic minerals de-cluster, slightly alkalize and supercharge water with natural minerals and electrolytes, as found in nature. The antibacterial filter technology eliminates 99.9% of bacteria and chlorine.
- An ergonomic design — AQUA POD's sleekly designed mouth piece feels comfortable on the lips, while its comfortable silicone grip makes for easy handling.
- nkd Super Flo System — an intelligently designed squeezable motion pad, water flows more quickly producing instant access to hydration.
- Fully attached cap — the cap protects the mouthpiece from exposure to germs and dirt when not in use.
- 100% Recyclable, EA Free, BPA Free and Dishwasher Safe.
AQUA POD is available for purchase NOW through Kickstarter, starting at $24 (£15) for one bottle with a six-month filter supply. Other packages include multiple AQUA PODs in various colors and filter refills.
