PROVEN TO BE BETTER.

Our Life-Cycle study compares the production of plastic bottles, aluminum cans, Boxed Water cartons and their environmental impact.

This study is consistent with the International standards
for LCA: ISO 14040:2006 and ISO 14044:2006

The Findings

Boxed water has a lower impact in every category compared to plastic and a lower total environment profile than aluminum cans.

If the U.S. switched over to Boxed Water, we could...

  • Reduce our carbon footprint by
    the same amount as burning
    2 million metric tons of coal.

  • Save enough energy to power
    NYC for 1 month.

  • Drive from LA to NYC
    2
    million times.

Isn't Enough

We're producing more than we can sustainably manage. We need to analyze the effects of production on the environment.
