Safe & convenient bottled water for the remote AF bases from raw, local water sources, with minimal logistics requirements

As well as an undeniable environmental issue, the supply of bottled water to Air Force Bases represents an enormous economic and logistic burden for the military, both abroad and locally, where hundreds of thousands of dollars are spent to supply bottled water to AFBs and nearby areas contaminated with PFAs. By building a local mini bottling plant at the point of use, Kadeya has developed a safe and cost-efficient solution to bring bottled water from local sources to the workplace while avoiding single-use plastic bottles and reducing carbon footprint. Kadeya hydration stations integrate advanced water filtration, bottle cleaning, bottle sterilization and automated visual inspection to provide users with crisp, clear, tasteless, safe drinking water in sealed, sterile and reusable bottles. Using an advanced filtration process and an activated carbon & ion exchange filter, Kadeya purifies water of 99.999% of bacteria, parasites, and microplastics found in tap water. Kadeya will adapt its Automated Water Machines stations to provide the AF with this revolutionary model where needed. During Phase I, we will contact potential AF end-users, assess their most important needs regarding product location, sizes and number of stations, select first use cases and design the validation trial.
