Sustainable Sourcing

Definitely not from Fiji…or France, or the Austrian Alps. Because we can’t think of anything more wasteful than shipping water halfway around the globe. Open Water believes in a radically different model: sourcing as close to where it’s being served as possible.

Giving Back

A portion of every can purchased goes to funding ocean conservation and plastic pollution prevention through initiatives like our Sea Change Grants.

OUR MISSION

Welcome to the Post-Plastic Era.

Open Water is a water brand that was started by two people who hated the bottled water industry…namely, the billions of plastic bottles getting pumped into existence every second of every day. To do things differently, we pioneered the canned water category. From day 1, Open Water’s products were designed to be the most sustainable on the planet: from sourcing, to packaging, to giving back.
