Overview
With Ecomo Bottle, users can easily test their own water safety levels: a shake of the bottle analyzes Total Organic Carbon (TOC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Turbidity and Water Temperature in 3 seconds. The Ecomo Bottle’s 3-in-1 filtration system contains activated carbon fiber, ion exchange fiber, and nano-fiber membrane. It can reduce most major contaminants such as pesticides, petroleum products, bacteria, and most heavy metals with a twist of the base.

 

 

 

Ecomo Bottle aims to bring clean water to everyone and minimize the usage of plastic bottles. Customers may choose to contribute to our water quality data map (without revealing any privacy) and become part of the effort to protect public health and the environment.

 

Ecomo Bottle saves approximately 228 plastic disposable water bottles within 3 months.
