PBC Launches GoodWater To Empower Consumers
Fort Langley, B.C. – (March 15, 2017) – Imagine knowing that every time you buy water, you’re providing the same volume of water to a community in need. Pacific Bottleworks Company (PBC), an emerging leader in the healthy beverage industry, has partnered with Christopher’s Spring in Harrison Mills to launch GoodWater – a local B.C. water brand that has already made a big difference.
“We believe clean water should be a basic human right. When a consumer purchases GoodWater, the same volume of fresh, clean drinking water is provided to a community in need,” says Erik Silden of PBC.
GoodWater has partnered with ACTS, a Vancouver-based charity, to construct tap stands that flow water to villages in Uganda. Their gravity-fed tap stand technology provides clean water from nearby sources to families that previously had to walk hours each day to collect standing water for basic needs. Local villagers are also trained on maintenance and repair of these sustainable water systems.
“This creative partnership enables consumers here to literally transform lives on the other side of the world through their purchases, making a huge positive impact for years to come,” says Jeff Golby, Director of Resource Development at ACTS.
GoodWater is launching now at retailers across Canada. Learn more at drinkgoodwater.ca.

This protected source provides BC mountain spring water that is second to no other premium global spring water with a total dissolved solids (tds) count of 25ppm and a perfect pH balance of 7.4.
