After founders Nic and Jess saw a documentary about plastic pollution as undergrads, the pair became obsessed with eliminating ocean- bound plastic bottles. Armed with passion, but no formal beverage experience, they came up with Open Water and pioneered the canned water category back in 2014. The company offers still and sparkling water in 100% recyclable aluminum bottles and cans, eliminating the need for plastic bottles. To date, Open Water has replaced the need for well over 50 million plastic bottles. The company was the world’s first certified Climate Neutral water
brand and every Open Water funds non-profits working for a future with #moreoceanlessplastic.
