Research done at schools over a period of time indicate that students were:

1) bringing a limited amount of water from home,
2) drinking water from the bathroom or garden taps
3) utilizing poorly maintained and often times unhygienic drinking fountains
4) purchasing bottled water or sodas at a minimum of $2.00 each (where students had to spend, sodas were by far the more frequent choice)

Many were doing one or more of the above. For example, a student who brings water from home would often run out of water during the day and would end up drinking or refilling at either the garden or bathroom taps.

Hydrate stations are set to raise the bar on hydration access, hygiene and health at every school by making pure refreshing drinking water the most accessible beverage on every school campus.

Every station is fitted with superior submicron carbon filtration technology which provides superior chlorine taste & odor reduction and micro-filters dirt and particles as small as 0.5 micron in size.

This filters the existing tap water making it crystal-clear, removing odour and taste impurities while reducing possible health contaminants such as asbestos fibers and a number of microorganisms including cryptosporidium.
