# Water-Saving Mist Nozzles This Water-Saving Nozzle Turns Water Into Mist For Extreme Savings By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2016-09-13 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watersaving-nozzle References: [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/621008351/altered-nozzle-same-tap-98-less-water) & [alteredcompany](http://www.alteredcompany.com/) A Swedish company by the name of Altered has created an exceptionally high-tech water-saving nozzle, dubbed the Altered:Nozzle, that is designed to turn regular tap water into a fine mist in order to make it easier than ever for users to enjoy water use reductions of around 98 percent without having to compromise on their water-related needs. This water-saving nozzle only uses around half a gallon of water per minute when activated, but still dispenses misted water across a large surface area, which means that you still get water with pressure and intensity required to do things such as wash dishes. Currently the subject of a crowdfunding campaign over on Kickstarter, the Altered:Nozzle water-saving nozzle is a great example of how innovative engineering can be applied to consumer products to garner resource savings without hampering functionality. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 53% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Water-saving Nozzles:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced water-saving nozzles for various industries to significantly reduce water consumption without compromising functionality. - **Misted Water Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Apply misted water technology to various applications, such as agriculture or industrial cleaning, to enhance efficiency and conserve water resources. - **Consumer-focused Water Conservation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create consumer-focused products that offer water conservation solutions, allowing users to reduce water usage without sacrificing convenience or performance. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Home Appliances:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate water-saving nozzles into home appliances like dishwashers and washing machines to reduce water consumption and enhance efficiency. - **Agriculture:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Implement misted water technology in irrigation systems and farming processes to optimize water usage and improve crop yield. - **Cleaning Services:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop misted water technology for cleaning services to reduce water waste while maintaining the effectiveness of cleaning processes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bubble-Infused Water Faucets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/microbubbles.md) - [Water-Saving Shower Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alu.md) - [Self-Powered Shower Heads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ung-water-enhancer.md) - [Energy-Efficient Spray Humidifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spray-humidifier.md) - [Air-Induction Showerheads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kohlers-statement-ves.md) - [Pocket Hydrator Mists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanohydra-pro.md) - [Drinking Water Home Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atmospheric.md) - [WiFi-Enabled Circular Showers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circular-shower.md) - [Closed-Loop Bathing Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upfall-shower.md)
