“Good Water”<br />

48. European Trade Fair<br />

for the Beverage Industry<br />

The bottle was developed with input from the Sir<br />

Peter Blake Trust. Good Water supports the Trust by<br />

donating a percentage from the sale of every bottle<br />

sold in order to help fund the Trust’s environmental<br />

education programmes for young Kiwis (that’s how the<br />

New Zealanders call themselves).<br />

“Our goal is to have raised $1 million for the Trust<br />

by 2012. It forms a nice loop using an environmental<br />

initiative like Good Water to help fund teaching kids<br />

about the environment,” says Hall.<br />

Dubbed The Good Water Project, the objective of<br />

the company is to also recycle the bottles. Good Water<br />

currently recycles the bottles from its home and office<br />

delivery service launched earlier this year by sending<br />

them to a recycling plant in the North Island.<br />

“The aim is to help reduce the overwhelming amount<br />

of plastic bottles being sent to landfill each year in this<br />

country. Currently all plastic bottles put out for collection<br />

in New Zealand are bailed up and exported to Asia, with<br />

the rest going to landfill as they do not biodegrade or<br />

break down,” says Hall.<br />

He says that although more Kiwis are still needed<br />

to get behind The Good Water Project there has been<br />

a groundswell of interest with many Kiwis logging onto<br />

the company website to find out more.<br />

“What we have achieved as a company in such a short<br />

space of time is a testament to the innovation and drive<br />

behind the Good Water vision for sustainability, which<br />

is obviously shared by many Kiwis. As more and more<br />

people learn about what we are doing we find they are<br />

becoming emotionally connected to the project and are<br />

advocates in the marketplace. We’re touching people<br />

from all walks of life with the vision we have for this<br />

project.”<br />
