If you believe that bottled water is safer than tap water, recent research may change your mind. Contrary to popular belief, studies indicate that tap water is often the safer choice in many parts of the world.

A commentary published in BMJ Global Health by researchers from Weill Cornell Medicine in Qatar highlights that bottled water in the U.S. frequently lacks the stringent quality and safety checks that tap water undergoes. As a result, bottled water can contain harmful chemicals that leach from plastic containers.

The importance of Corporate Social Responsibility from Environmental Perspective

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is vital for businesses as it emphasizes environmental stewardship, promoting sustainable practices that reduce ecological footprints. By prioritizing eco-friendly initiatives, companies can enhance their brand reputation, attract environmentally conscious consumers, and contribute to the health of the planet.

Chlorine-treated water may increase the risk of having children with heart problems, cleft palate or major brain defects, according to a study published in BioMed Central's open access journal Environmental Health.

A recent study has revealed that bottled water contains alarmingly high levels of nanoplastics—tiny plastic particles that are even smaller than microplastics. Nanoplastics form when microplastics break down further, and they are pervasive in the environment. 

Water scarcity is a critical global issue, leading to diseases, hunger, and forced migration. Despite being essential for life, water is increasingly threatened. Climate crisis discussions often overshadow the growing issue of water scarcity, which affects many parts of the world, with some countries more vulnerable than others.

The United Nations reports that over 40% of the global population lacks sufficient water, a figure expected to rise as only 3% of Earth's water is fresh and suitable for human use.

We are proud to announce that DIGI-TEXX has chosen BWT to provide advanced water solutions for staff and employees of their new Hau Giang Operation Center. 

This collaboration signifies a commitment to enhancing the well-being and productivity of over 900 workers at the site.

For years, scientists have suspected that industrial chemicals in plastic water bottles can disrupt human hormones. Until now, evidence has only been observational, showing an association between plastic exposure and certain diseases without proving a causal effect.

Nicole Silk, the global director of Freshwater Outcomes at The Nature Conservancy (TNC), has analyzed why we must come together to protect the world's declining freshwater ecosystems.

Higher intakes of magnesium have been shown to positively influence cognitive health as we age, according to researchers at the Neuroimaging and Brain Lab at The Australian National University (ANU).

Researchers have uncovered a promising link between increasing one's intake of magnesium-rich foods such as spinach and almonds along with mitigating the risk of dementia, which is currently Australia's second leading cause of mortality and an alarming seventh globally.

As aging infrastructure in municipal water systems struggles to keep up with modern contamination challenges, concerns about water safety are increasing. PFAS, microplastics, and other contaminants are not effectively removed by outdated systems. This growing awareness is driving demand for home water filtration solutions that provide an extra layer of protection.
