In this episode we meet with Justin Mahy CEO and co-founder (with his wife Mindy) of The KŌPŪ Water Company.

SUSTAINABILITY
KŌPŪ Water has taken a significant step towards a greener future by introducing the most sustainable water bottle on the market. Their innovative approach involves crafting recyclable, resealable aluminum bottles that are designed with a clear intention to provide consumers with the most eco-friendly alternative to traditional glass and plastic containers. By doing so, they're not only offering a practical solution for hydration but also actively contributing to a more sustainable world.

RECYCLING
One of KŌPŪ Water's noteworthy achievements is their contribution to the recycling industry. Their choice to use aluminum as the primary material for their bottles aligns with their commitment to environmental responsibility. It's worth noting that a remarkable 75% of all aluminum ever created is still in use today. This astounding statistic underscores the enduring value of aluminum and the potential for its widespread recycling.
