All About PATH And A Better Way To Drink Water

These questions give a great overview of who PATH is as a company as well as how they are accomplishing their goal to reduce single-use plastic.

1. What inspired the creation of PATH Water, and how did the idea first come about?

The inspiration for PATH first came when three friends, Shadi Bakour, Amer, and Ali Orabi, passed through the bottled water aisle at a store, and when they stopped to ask, ‘Why so much single-use plastic? Why isn’t there a better way to drink bottled water?’ This moment of reflection sparked the idea for PATH. Determined to make a difference, they set out to create a business focused on reducing the reliance on single-use plastic water bottles.

2. PATH Water is known for its focus on sustainability. Can you tell us more about the brand’s mission and how it aligns with today’s environmental challenges?

At PATH, our mission is to tackle the single-use plastic problem by offering refillable, sustainable bottles. We want to make sustainability easy for everyone and inspire people to make simple changes, like using a reusable bottle. In a world facing significant environmental challenges, we believe small actions can make a big difference for the planet.

3. Why did you choose to package PATH Water in reusable aluminum bottles instead of other materials like glass or plastic?

We chose reusable aluminum because it’s lightweight, super durable, and endlessly recyclable. Unlike plastic, which piles up, aluminum can be recycled repeatedly without losing quality. It’s safer than glass, especially when you’re on the move. We wanted a bottle that’s better for the planet and convenient for everyday use.

This feedback helps us stay aligned with both customer expectations and our commitment to sustainability.

5. What measures does PATH Water take to reduce its carbon footprint and environmental impact throughout the product lifecycle?

At PATH, we focus on reducing our carbon footprint at every stage of the product life cycle. From sourcing materials to manufacturing, we prioritize sustainable practices. Our refillable bottles are designed to be reused long-term, cutting down on single-use plastics and waste. Plus, we’re committed to minimizing emissions in our distribution process, making every step as eco-friendly as possible.
