H2Go purifies water direct from tap to reduce plastic waste

By Naresh Chauhan

Bottled water may provide a hygienic alternative to quench your thirst, but the empty bottles littered in the open become utterly unhygienic for the environment, as plastic takes thousands of years to decompose. Addressing the issue, Indian design firm Kiba Design has come up with a portable water purifier that doubles as water container. Entitled “H2Go,” the water purifier features the shape of a donut and makes use of silver-impregnated activated carbon filters and a micro-filtration membrane to sterilize water from the tap. Passing the filter though water, using the serrated disc to store potable water, the H2Go also integrates a partition wall to divide purified and unfiltered water, so you’ll have clean water at your disposal anytime, anywhere.
