KOR ONE: Hydration Vessel

Our love of bottled water has placed our health and our environment at risk.

KOR WATER and world-recognized industrial design firm RKS have combined efforts to create an innovative, empowering, and sustainable personal hydration solution.

For life, there must be water. When we talk about Earth survival, it's not just about being "green"... it's about preserving and caring for the blue - the waters of our world upon which the Blue Planet thrives.

Though most of us are lucky enough to have fresh water as close as the nearest tap, our passion for bottled water has had a heavy impact on our environment.

Water expert Peter Gleick suggests that, to understand the hidden energy costs associated with packaging, processing, and transporting bottled water, we imagine "filling up a quarter of every bottle with oil." To make matters worse, only one in five of these bottles is recycled.

And it's not just landfills that these discarded bottles are clogging up.

In 2007, marine biologists discovered the "Great Pacific Garbage Patch," a massive, continent-sized flotilla of plastic garbage between San Francisco and Hawaii.

The KOR ONE Hydration Vessel is a response to the need for a healthy, sustainable, and environmentally sound way to stay hydrated.

Not intended for a trek to the Outback or the Himalayas, the KOR ONE was designed to fit our everyday lives - to be equally at home on an executive's desk, in a yoga studio, and at your side throughout the day.
