Water Scarcity at Large Events

At events like religious gatherings, attendees often struggle to find clean drinking water. Long lines, limited access, and heavy reliance on single-use plastic bottles make the situation challenging. This lack of clean water availability not only leads to health risks but also adds to plastic waste.

Plastic Waste Crisis

Plastic bottles are everywhere, especially at large gatherings. Each year, billions of plastic bottles are produced, with only a fraction recycled. The rest ends up polluting our landfills and oceans, taking hundreds of years to decompose. This plastic waste is a severe threat to our environment, harming wildlife and filling our ecosystems with microplastics.

Health & Environmental Risks

Plastic bottles leach harmful chemicals, and broken-down microplastics have infiltrated our food and water supplies. These pollutants endanger marine life and pose risks to human health as well. Meanwhile, devotees are often left without safe drinking water, affecting their wellbeing during events.

Our Solution (WATICA)

WATICA Water Pouches

WATICA’s water pouches are a sustainable, biodegradable alternative to plastic bottles. Made from plant-based materials, these pouches naturally break down after use, leaving no harmful residues. We believe providing water should not mean leaving a lasting waste.

Sustainable Materials

Our pouches are crafted from materials that decompose within months. By using compostable packaging, we eliminate the need for single-use plastic and prevent plastic waste from harming our ecosystems.

Implementation at Events

We work with organizers to set up hydration stations at key points in large gatherings. Devotees can access clean water in compostable pouches, which are conveniently disposed of in designated composting areas. WATICA combines accessibility with sustainability.

Future Plans

Our aim is to introduce WATICA at Maha Kumbh Mela 2025, one of the world’s largest religious gatherings. By then, we hope to set a benchmark in eco-friendly event management and inspire other gatherings to adopt similar sustainable practices.”
