Nazava Water Filters wants everyone, everywhere, to have access to safe and affordable drinking water.
In rural Indonesia, 80% of residents must boil their water to make it drinkable. Nazava’s technology eliminates 99.9% of particles and pathogens, reducing exposure to waterborne illness. The filters also help the environment by displacing wood and fossil fuels used to boil water.
Nazava’s filters have already reached over 680,000 Indonesians, but there are millions more who could benefit from this dependable source of water. Nazava is working hard to scale up their business and reach 1 million people by 2020.
