About Aquasafi

An estimated 880 million people around the world and 154 million people in India do not have access to clean, potable water. AquaSafi™ was set up to provide these underprivileged across the developing world with access to safe drinking water while opening up employment and micro-entrepreneurship avenues.

To kick start our mission, we chose the state of Karnataka, India. An extensive survey in Karnataka revealed that 60% of sources tested exceeded 1 ppm of fluoride, 20% of sources tested positive for nitrate contamination, while 38% had bacteriological contamination. * (Arghyam Survey of Household Water and Sanitation in Karnataka 2008-09)
