Everything Else
"Without water, sustainable development is impossible."- UN
Water is not just a resource, it is the foundation of life, equity, and resilience. Yet today, we find ourselves in the midst of a global water crisis. According to UNICEF, 1 in 3 children—approximately 739 million worldwide—already live in areas exposed to high or very high-water scarcity, with climate change threatening to exacerbate this situation.
In India, where groundwater depletion has reached alarming levels, the need for efficient, decentralized hydration solutions has never been more urgent.
In response to this crisis, WAE has positioned itself not merely as a manufacturer of drinking water fountains & systems but as a transformative force in how the world thinks about sustainable hydration in commercial environments.
The Scale of the Problem
Globally, the UN Environment Program (UNEP) reports that around 1 million plastic drinking bottles are purchased every minute, contributing significantly to plastic pollution.
India alone generates over 3.5 million tons of plastic waste annually, with drinking water bottles constituting a significant portion of this volume. (CPCB)
This is not just an environmental emergency, it is a design failure.
WAE: Pioneering Sustainable Hydration at Scale
For over a decade, WAE has engineered solutions that transcend conventional water dispensing. Their drinking water fountains represent a sustainable, touch-free, and high-volume alternative to bottled water in high-footfall locations such as offices, institutions, airports, manufacturing facilities—and increasingly, petrol pumps.
Constructed from SS-304 food-grade stainless steel, WAE’s fountains are built to last, minimizing lifecycle waste and eliminating the need for plastic-packaged alternatives. These systems combine advanced multi-stage purification with contactless dispensing technology, meeting the dual priorities of hygiene and environmental stewardship.
By embedding sustainability into the very fabric of their product engineering, WAE offers a blueprint for future-ready commercial infrastructure. Every installation replaces thousands of plastic bottles annually and drastically reduces the carbon footprint associated with transport, refrigeration, and disposal of bottled water.
WAE’s Vision For Petrol Pumps: India’s Untapped Opportunity
India’s 70,000+ petrol stations serve as a daily touchpoint for millions of ********. Yet, few offer reliable, safe, and sustainable drinking water. The consequence? Travelers and drivers resort to purchasing bottled water, which is convenient but environmentally destructive.
WAE’s commercial drinking water fountains for petrol pumps offer a viable, scalable alternative. These systems are weather-resistant, hygienic, and efficient, allowing for high throughput without compromising on water quality. For fuel retailers, the addition of such units signals a shift from transaction-based service to community-oriented responsibility—offering value that is both social and environmental.
