Do you have access to clean drinking water at work? Other than a communal water fountain? Some employees are not so lucky and don’t have access to clean water, like workers in Australia. You need your workers to be hydrated and buying drinks from a vending machine can get expensive. Billi Pty. Ltd. (drinking water appliance company) has teamed up with Pentair (water filters) to make sure those Australian workers can have safe water to drink. If you want to learn more about Pentair filters, they might be walking the aisles of Filtration 2013 as they have done in past years. If you’re in Chicago in mid-November, stop by.

If you ship your products around the world via sea, you probably didn’t think about filtration being important to ship operations.
