Plastic waste is a crucial environmental issue society faces today, especially when it’s a single use water bottle.
Every year, billions of plastic bottles are thrown into the trash, and many of them get to the ocean and rivers. Unfortunately, studies show that bottled water has thousands of tiny plastics, or microplastics, which are extremely harmful to human health, wild animals, and the environment. This is where PATH water comes in to make a change.

PATH “prioritizes sustainable packaging materials, from our sleek aluminum bottles to highly recyclable cardboard cases: every aspect is thoughtfully designed to minimize our environmental impact.”
PATH Water is a company from California that sells clean water in reusable aluminum bottles. Their goal is to reduce the amount of plastic by making their bottles reusable and refillable.
CMO and Co Founder, Ali Orabi, strives to spread the word about plastic waste.
“I’m really proud of what we’re doing at PATH. Our whole goal is to make it easier for people to help the planet, starting withsmall choices, like refilling a bottle instead of throwing one away,” he explained.
PATH Water wanted to make a difference in the way people live. “We believe that even small changes can make a big differenceover time. It’s amazing to see more and more people choosing to help the Earth, and that’s what keeps us going every day,” said Orabi.
Aluminum is a better material for the environment because of how many times it can be recycled without breaking into pieces. Also, the bottles are sturdy, stylish, and efficient to carry around, making it easier for people to choose alittlechangewithabigdifference over time.
PATH Water isn’t only about selling reusable water bottles. It’s about the movement they create. The company also works on educating people at schools, communities, and other organizations to spread awareness about the dangerous parts of plastic waste.
Malcolm Jones-Smith ’25 said, “Introducing PATH to students is huge in my opinion. It’s a great way to introduce eco-friendly methods to the next generation.”
They explain their mission through social media, blogs and events to help others understand why lowering the amount of plastic waste is crucial. By motivating to create the habit of reusing bottles, PATH wants people to become aware of their goal.
One of the things that makes this water brand unique is the program they offer. Organizations like schools, businesses, and sports teams can make custom bottles with their own designs or logos.
This is a fun and creative way to promote their brand while motivating others to think about the environment.
Customizing a bottle is easy: send the artwork or design, PATH will make sure it fits the bottle smoothly, the bottle is printed and sent to the customer. It’s a nice way to advertise, customize, and send a message at the same time.
Their reusable bottles are better for the planet and for human health. Whether the use is one every day or handing them out at an event, PATH bottles remind citizens of the world that small decisions can have a huge impact.
Choosing to reuse rather than throw away is an advancement towards a cleaner future, and PATH Water is leading the pack.
