HaloSource Launching astrea (TM) Bottle to Combat Lead in
Drinking Water
Bottle Campaign Launched Today on Crowdfund platform
Indiegogo
March 22, 2018, (SEATTLE, WASH.) - Today, on World Water Day,
clean water innovator HaloSource,Inc. ("HaloSource" or the
"Company") launched an Indiegogo campaign to crowdfund pre-orders
of its new astrea(TM) bottle in the US. This bottle is expected to
be the world's most effective daily-use filtering water bottle,
tested to remove lead and other heavy metals to the most rigorous
National Sanitation Foundation standard - NSF 53. HaloSource
intends to help consumers filter the uncertainty out of their water
by delivering a portable solution that allows Americans to drink
"Water Without Questions".
A recent investigation by USA Today identified 2,000 water
systems spanning all 50 states where testing has shown unsafe
levels of lead in drinking water over the past four years. In
addition, a growing number of schools across the US are also
reporting unsafe levels of lead in water, a major issue considering
research studies show exposure to lead and heavy metals
particularly impacts children's brain development and cognitive
function. Consumers are invited to pledge their support to "Kick
the Lead Out!" on the Indiegogo campaign page that opened today and
is expected to remain open for the next 30 days. In addition to
supporting clean water here in the US, a portion of all funds
raised during the astrea(TM) bottle campaign will be donated to
water.org to support the charity's efforts to provide better access
to clean water globally.
"Over the last 20 years, HaloSource's business focus has been
international, working with consumer products companies to bring
clean water solutions to developing countries; but with the events
of Flint, Michigan putting the spotlight on lead and lead now
showing up in our nation's schools, we recognised just how
significant this issue is right here at home," said James Thompson,
CEO of HaloSource. "Our astrea project team's goal with this
campaign was to create a product for families that would offer the
most effective and portable solution to lead contamination showing
up inside homes, schools and throughout the community."
The astrea team leveraged HaloSource's proprietary technology
and assembled a team of world-class scientists, product designers
and engineers to design the new astrea(TM) bottle and filter. In
addition to removing lead and other heavy metals to the NSF 53
standard, the bottle will also ensure your water tastes great.
Other innovative features of the stainless steel, insulated bottle
include a fill-through lid which makes refilling easy and a locking
straw for anti-spill security.
