Boon’s proprietary Zero-Mile Water ™️ system is a well-designed mechanism that uses AI and the IoT to reduce daily plastic usage. Zero-Mile Water helps in creating a safe and affordable circular system for hotels. It purifies and packages drinking water in the glass bottles, thereby removing the plastic bottles from the pollution chain altogether.
Currently, around 50-75 trillion pieces of plastic and microplastics lie in the ocean, contributing to 80% of all marine pollution. UNESCO estimates that each year, plastic debris in the ocean kills over 1 million marine animals that include fish, sharks, and turtles.
Sharing her views on the partnership, Dr Vibha Tripathi, Founder of Boon, said, “In the past, we have partnered with more than 200 hotels in replacing plastic with sustainable glass bottles and our initiative with ibis India is another major step towards the noble cause. This provision of healthy alkaline mineralized water in glass bottles through these cutting cutting-edge sustainable technologies will go a long way in reducing the environmental impact, while also promoting a more responsible usage of water.”
