Early this year, Marissa spotted a new eco-friendly water bottle design called the ‘321 Water Bottle’ which blends the portability of bottled water with the potability of a filtration system.
Fast forward almost a year and Dutch designer and Melbourne‐based enviropreneur, Gretha Oost, has put a call out to the crowds to fund production of her award-winning eco-invention.
The first 10,000 founding orders will receive the Limited Edition 321 Water bottle and the satisfaction of being part of this innovative product’s journey to the market.
