Part sustainable water company, part art project, part philanthropic project, and completely curious.

The Michigan-based company creates each water box using around 90 percent tree matter sourced from certified and “well managed” forests which continuously replant harvested trees.

The company returns twenty-percent of profits back to reforestation and world water relief organizations.
