There are billions of people around the world who have access to piped water or an improved source (such as a borehole or covered spring) but whose water is undeniably unsafe for human consumption.
Institutions, such as schools, throughout the developing world need to provide drinking water to hundreds of millions of beneficiaries per day but are often unaware of technologies that can be used to treat their water.
For institutions that are familiar with safe water technologies options, the system costs are out of reach for many. Limited suppliers sell on a cash basis and the upfront investment is often too high.
