Bottled Water vs. Filtered Water
Plastics are synonymous with modern society. However, the world is recognizing that we need to find environmentally safe alternatives to our growing plastic use. Among one of the greatest contributors to plastic waste is bottled water consumption. Around the world, 1 million single-use plastic water bottles are purchased every minute! This number is expected to increase 20% by 2021. While some of these plastic bottles are recycled, most end up in landfills, in our oceans, and along our coastal shores.
Until recently, bottled water provided the only convenient, safe, and refreshing option for purified and filtered water. However, thanks to recent innovations in water filtration and purifying technology, residents and businesses no longer need to rely on plastic bottled water to quench their thirst. In fact, purified water is a better choice than buying water.
What is Filtered Water?
Water filtration is a general term that refers to any system or process used to filter out pollutants and particles and from water. A powerful water filtration system, such as Everpure, is designed to micro-filter dirt and particles as small as 0.2 microns. Additionally, exclusive precoat water filtration systems provide a superior taste while reducing natural odors from your water. Unless otherwise stated, bottled water is filtered or purified water that’s bottled and sold for one-time consumption. Water purifiers provide the same safe drinking water without the plastic bottle.
Benefits of Drinking Filtered Water
While bottled water provides access to safe drinking water, it’s often overpriced and causes a great deal of plastic waste, increased carbon emissions, and microplastic leakage associated with the production and transportation of plastic bottles. There are many reasons filtered water dispensers are a better choice than buying bottled water, to include:
Filtered water provides the same quality as bottled water - like plastic bottled water, filtered water is free of odor, harmful chemicals, pesticides, and particles. Best of all, it tastes fantastic!
Filtered water is healthy - water filtration systems remove harmful bacteria, chemicals, and particles from tap water while simultaneously leaving the healthy minerals.
Enjoy on-demand water - water filtration systems allow your family, clients, or employees to enjoy filtered water all of the time!
Easy access - water filtration systems can be connected directly to your home or office faucets allowing your family or employees to enjoy clean, safe, refreshing drinking water whenever they want it. Unlike bottled water, which has a sell-by date, Sprudel filtration systems use a patented spiral cooling system which allows it to be served on demand.
Stylish design - modern filtration systems, such as those available from Sprudel, are designed to complement your home, office, or restaurant.
Save money - bottled water is often over-priced to account for the costs of manufacturing, packaging, and transporting the water to suppliers.
Environmentally friendly - not only does a water filtration system reduce single-use plastic consumption, but it also saves the energy and resources associated with manufacturing, packaging, and transporting bottled water to suppliers.
