🚰 The ABCs of Waterhub

Waterhub operates a network of proprietary filtration systems and dispensers that transform municipal, rain, groundwater, and seawater into safe drinking water. 

• Not just filtration. Waterhub also offers communal water dispensers that eliminate the need for plastic water bottles. 
• Waterhub dispensers can be placed in schools, public places, and business events to lessen the use of disposable water bottles. 

Money matters. Waterhub operates using a pay-per-use and subscription model. Each of their units use advanced reverse osmosis, IoT monitoring, and optional app-based payments.

Since their launch in 2024, they have disbursed 36 filtration units, 32 communal dispensers, and 4 heavy-duty systems for clients across the fitness, F&B, and hospitality industries. 

• They’re targeting to have 2K units by 2029. 

Water for everyone! They expect to filter over 21M liters of water, saving more than 300K tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions by 2029.
