Why
Clean water, a two-minute walk away.
Madrid has excellent water. What is missing is having it at hand when you are out, without buying another bottle.
Why
We breathe for free. Drinking clean water should be just as simple.
In 2010 the UN recognised access to safe, clean drinking water as a human right.
We want that right to be a two-minute walk away.
Madrid
Madrid’s tap water is excellent.
We’re not here to argue with that — we’re here to bring it closer. Filtered, chilled in summer, and without buying another plastic bottle.
Filtered
The design includes four stages: pre-filter, activated carbon, membrane and UV light.
Chilled
Cooled to around 10–12 °C, even in the middle of August.
Close
The idea: always a water point a few minutes’ walk away.
Questions
What people ask us.
Is it really free?
Yes, for whoever fills the bottle. The water and maintenance will be paid for by the advertising on the AquaPoint screen.
Who pays for it?
The advertisers on the screen. We will also sell AQUACUP bottles and, later, our own water. That profit goes into more AquaPoints.
Isn’t tap water good enough?
In Madrid it is excellent. AquaPoint does not replace it: it filters it, chills it and brings it closer when you are out.
When will it reach my neighbourhood?
There is no date yet: this is a project. First we gather support, then come the prototype and a pilot. Signatures help us decide where to start.
What do you do with my data?
We use it to count your signature and, only if you agree, to send you news. We do not sell it and you can unsubscribe at any time. It is all in the privacy policy.
