Purifying H2O Tumblers

The Grayl Bottle Makes Unclean Water Drinkable in Only One Minute

— July 19, 2013 — Lifestyle
Access to fresh water is a global issue and the Grayl Bottle is an innovative product that looks to offer an economical way to make unclean water potable. The Grayl Bottle works by utilizing a G3+ filter to eliminate harmful toxins and elements that prevent human consumption.

When filled, the Grayl Bottle requires only one minute before being able to offer drinkable water and doesn't require any pumping or manual power to work. The issue of clean water access is a constant topic in the global forum and while dependable water sources would be optimal, they are often hard to maintain and decentralized. The Grayl Bottle is a downstream approach, but ensures that the water being drank is indeed dependable and offers a product that can be spread unilaterally to those who need or require it.
Trend Themes
1. Potable Water Bottles - Innovative water bottles that can quickly and effectively make unclean water drinkable could revolutionize access to clean water globally.
2. Portable Water Filtration - Lightweight and efficient water filtration systems that do not require external power could provide disruptive solutions to water access challenges around the world.
3. Sustainable Water Purification - New technologies that provide affordable and eco-friendly ways of purifying water can help address water scarcity and pollution while contributing to the growth of sustainable industries.
Industry Implications
1. Outdoor and Adventure Gear - Companies that produce outdoor gear and accessories could find opportunities in developing and marketing innovative, lightweight and rugged water purifying devices for adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts.
2. Humanitarian Aid and Disaster Relief - Organizations involved in providing humanitarian aid and disaster relief could find useful applications for portable water filtration technology in emergency situations, where clean water is often scarce and essential for survival.
3. Sustainable Packaging and Recycling - Sustainable packaging companies and environmental groups could explore partnerships and investment opportunities in companies that develop innovative water filtration and purification solutions that are eco-friendly and promote responsible consumption and disposal.
