Our company supports April Dream, an initiative to make April 1st a day to broadcast dreams. This press release is the dream of 'Aquos Co., Ltd.'.
Aquos Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka, President and CEO: Katsuhiro Yoshimoto), a company specializing in the water business, ranging from the manufacture and sale of soft drinks to the production and sale of sterilizing water capable of virus sterilization, takes on the challenge of developing the water of the future.
Equipped with our own factory in Gobo City, Wakayama Prefecture, and using high-quality natural water polished by passing through many geological layers from the mountain range where the 'Wakayama Prefecture/Kumano Kodo' exists as raw water, we aim to become a professional company that creates various things from 'water' with 'water' as the theme, bringing moisture to our customers' daily lives.
## ■ Past Initiatives
All Aquos products are developed from water.
The possibilities for products using 'water' as an ingredient are endless.
Precisely because 'water' is essential for daily life, we have focused on the mineral water 'Be every' using water dispensers as a lifestyle water that can be drank 'safely and securely' and deliciously every day. Leveraging our creative power as a manufacturing industry, we have produced and sold products full of originality as 'drinking water' and 'usable water'.
In 2025, our Kumano Kodo natural water will be used for the 'Ultra-pure water of the sea and mountains' (soup supervised by culinary researcher Yoshiharu Doi) at the 'Blue Ocean Dome' of the Osaka Kansai Expo. We are building brand trust.
## Preserved Water
### Development of '5-Year Preservation Water for Disasters' that can be stored long-term while maintaining its deliciousness
Prompted by major earthquakes and natural disasters in various places, we began manufacturing long-term preservation water (stockpile water) necessary for sustaining life. The 5-year preservation water is one of our representative products.
From the perspective of SDGs, the 500ml size was developed in a pouch container type. By using a container with excellent preservation and light-shielding properties, long-term preservation of natural water while keeping it delicious became possible. Compared to PET bottle types, plastic usage was reduced by 80%, and the amount of garbage was reduced by about 70%.
