BOTTLED WATER AND OUR ENVIRONMENT
I
n 2009, Triflow Concepts Limited launched its global
campaign encouraging consumers to stop
buying bottled water and return to drinking refined
tap water as a healthier and more economical
alternative.
In recent years the increasing demand
for bottled water has taken a surprisingly
high toll on our environment. At only
2 pence per litre, Triflow filtered
water is a healthy, cost-effective
and environmentally friendly
substitute to bottled water.
By taking the small and
simple step of going
back to drinking tap
water, we can reduce
our carbon footprint
and contribute to a
cleaner, healthier
environment.
