To overcome the following shortcomings:
about loadability. transport, alternative to oxfam bucket
Aquaid Waterbag PLC
Jerry Buckets: 200 pcs
– with lids, stacked on pallet
Gross weight: 190 KG/ 1 kg pr. pcs
Dimensions: 120x100x124 cm
Aquaid Waterbag: 200 units per carton
Multiple packing modes:
Coiling, folding, stacking etc.
Gross weight: 18 kg/ctn
Dimensions: 40x50x60 cm
All these devices are voluminous and the type of plastic is not durable. Often they break and are affected by weathering. Buckets and jerry cans are difficult to transport (takes space). In flooded areas, buckets and jerry cans cannot be dropped by the air.
Aquaid water bags: Low CO2 footprint
In 1M3 can be an estimated weighing average 10 times less. For the same water 20 liters to be transported; this has a significant CO2 impact.
Aquaid materials
Three layer film; PET, aluminum and nylon
Functionality:
PET: strength and durability
Aluminum layer: to keep the water cool and not heating up
Durability: able to last minimum 1 year and carrying a weight of 20 kg.
Handy secondary uses of the water bags:
Personal use: keep documents dry, make a sail for shading.
Medical use: Support under an injured or broken arm, stop bleeding
Educational use: sign post, erasable board for school purpose, info how and when to plant…
Aquaid water bag when emptied can easily fall over. We have therefore developed a simple carton box; in which the water bags fits making it stable. When the water bag is empty, simply take out the bag and carry to a source of water. When returning, put the water bag back into the box. In case, the housing is very humid or in case of flooding situations, the box can be made of lightweight plastic walls.
Recyclable plastics
Currently plastics are banned and critized in many applications.
Plastics are useful materials when handled and recycled in the correct ways.
Aquaid water bag has a multi-purpose usage: after having served as a tool to transport water, the bag can be transformed to a mobile toilet for collection of human waste.
The bag is then sterilized with waste content and waste can be used as crop nutrients. At the final end of the water bags life, the plastic is shredded and melted into pellets. These pellets can be used for other new bags or other plastic shapes.
AquaidH2O is an alternative to the presently preferred solution.
