Why WAIĀKEA Hawaiian Volcanic Water stands out from the rest of the bottled water

Saturday, August 25, 2018

Water is basically the most essential part of our everyday life. Yet for billions of people around the world, clean, safe drinking water remains a dream. There  are still places around the world that still hungers for this major necessity. 

Water is a basic human need. Each person on earth requires at least 50 liters of clean water a day for drinking, cooking, and simply keeping themselves healthy and clean. Most of us today do not realize the significance of clean drinking water for our healthy life. Healthy life cannot be ensured without proper hydration of the body. Our body is estimated to be about 60% percent water, which is needed to regulate body temperature and to provide the means for nutrients to travel to all the organs. When the body does not receive a constant, reliable supply of fresh clean water, it has to ration what’s available and cut back on certain functions in order to make the supply go round.

Non-availability of clean drinking water has different impacts on Health such as waterborne diseases and more not to mention the problem with all of these bottled water companies because of the plastic bottles that are extremely harmful to the environment. There's been reports on some countries particularly in Asia where majority of the waste are plastic bottles and they end up in the seas and oceans, endangering sea creatures. 

How can we solve these problems about safe drinking water without harming the environment?

The answer is Waiakea Water. You might think that Waiakea Water is no different from other bottled water that claims their water is so unique and infused with goodness that you just cannot live without it or theirs are enhanced with vitamins that make it special but there are things you need to know about Waiakea Water that will make it stand out from the rest.

Waiākea volcanic water originates on the Mauna Loa volcano. The process takes it one step further since their filtering process definitely makes it stand out from the rest of the bottled water companies. It was established in 2012 and since then they have made some progress into the industry by using their creativity. From Mauna Loa Volcano as arctic moisture from trade winds converts to bountiful rain or snow as it hits their mountainous slopes. The water is then naturally filtered through thousands of feet of porous lava rock which enhances it with a unique blend of life sustaining minerals before finally emerging as delicious Hawaiian volcanic mineral water. 

Mauna Loa means “Long Mountain” in the Hawaiian language, and the volcano plays a prominent role in ancient and modern Hawaiian culture. Mauna Loa boasts not only being the planet’s most active volcano, but also the largest mountain on Earth.

 It is approximately 375 times the size of Mount Hood and has quite a bit more rock than either the entire Cascade or Sierra Nevada mountain ranges, or to fill the Grand Canyon 18 times! Mauna Loa rises at least 33,000 feet above the sea floor, making it the tallest mountain in the world when measured from its base.

Imagine drinking a water filtered through the process of water running through 14,000 feet of porous volcanic rock through the Mauna Loa volcano, how cool and massive can that be?

Waiakea comes from the words “wai akea” which means “broad waters.” It’s a nice way to incorporate the Hawaiian culture into the company and promote how natural their drinking water is and the vibe they want to send to the consumers. The process itself makes it different from the rest.
What makes Waiakea Water stand out even more is that they care for the environment. WAIĀKEA prides itself on using high-grade 100% RPET, or recycled polyethylene terephtalate, for all of its bottles. RPET is post-consumer recycled plastic and has incredible environmental advantages.

In comparison to regular or virgin plastic bottles, Waiakea Water 100% RPET bottles:
– Use 85% less energy to manufacture
– Use 90% less water
– Reduce carbon emissions over 90%.4

On top of this, they only use the highest quality RPET to make their bottles also BPA Free.
What does this all means? Waiakea Water is the world’s first fully degradable bottle, that's 100% recyclable plastic and that is what we really need right now, an average plastic water bottle will degrade but it takes 1 thousand years or so before it completely degrades, meaning it will harm the environment for quite some time but for Waiakea Water bottle, it will break down in only 15 years. 

An ordinary plastic water bottle will degrade and break down over time. A lot of time. It takes more than a 1,000 years for a plastic water bottle to degrade into the environment. That means those plastic water bottles that you see littering the environment will still be there for centuries. Waiakea’s plastic water bottles will greatly speed up the process. Their bottles will break down in only 15 years. Isn't this what we really need?

WAIĀKEA promises to strive to innovate not only their own product, but hopefully the industry as a whole. The company has been certified Carbon Neutral since they use low-emission vehicles to deliver their products. On top of this, about 3% of Waiakea’s revenue goes for local community programs and non-profit organizations. They contribute towards the betterment of the community. They are also keen on their sharing to those in need, for every liter of their water bought, Waiakea donates a week’s supply of clean water to people in need in Malawi. 

All of these wonderful reasons why WAIĀKEA totally eclipses all the other water bottles. There is no wonder why their company is one of the fastest growing and successful companies in the  United States of America simply because they don't just think of earning for themselves but they think about humanity, environment and the future.
