What are the Benefits of Choosing Just Water over Single-Use Plastics?

Being conscious about selecting your water solutions is essential, especially due to the environmental implications. While single-use plastic use may seem convenient, it does come with a cost. The cost isn't just to your bank account but also to the environment and even your health. Just Water offers a better alternative that saves your wallet and helps the planet. Here's why switching to Just Water solutions makes sense. 

Reducing Plastic Waste

"At least 15 metric tons of plastic enter the ocean each year; experts predict that plastic will outweigh fish in the ocean by 2050 unless we change course soon." (Fox, 2024). As you may know plastic takes a long time to decompose and break down thus causing plastic build-up in our oceans. Don't contribute to this by choosing your hydrating solution wisely. Just Water eliminates the need for single-use plastics, with the 15L water bottles being returned by customers to be recycled and reused to reduce waste. 

Plastic Bottles Waste

Lowering Carbon Footprint

You may even re-use your single-use plastic bottle and think that's counteracting the offset of damage it's causing. This is far from true, as the life cycle of single-use plastics from production, transportation to disposal has a significant carbon footprint. Research suggests that the production of a 500-millimetre plastic bottle results in a carbon footprint of approximately 82.8 grams of carbon dioxide (Co2). Largely due to the energy-intensive manufacturing process. By choosing Just Water Solutions, you are opting for a service that holds sustainability at its core by recycling bottles, using fully compostable and certified plastic-free cups, and refurbishing water coolers to the highest standard.

Cost Effective Solution

We can all agree the price of single use water bottles are expensive, especially when purchasing regularly. Just Water offers a budget-friendly alternative by providing refillable water cooler or water delivery services that save you money in the long run. You can get a home water cooler from only $1 per day, and still have cool crisp great tasting water whenever you want. Investing in a sustainable hydration solution means you no longer need to keep spending on expensive single-use bottles.

Convenience and Reliability

Having to constantly make trips to the supermarket to purchase single-use plastic bottles can be a pain. Just Water offers convenient hydration solutions tailored to your needs. Whether at home or in the office, the 15L water bottles mean that you will have delicious-tasting water for a while without needing to constantly visit the store. Better yet, if you’re eligible for water delivery, you will get your water delivered straight to your door, and your empty water bottles will be taken from your doorstep.
