The winners of the 2015 Global Bottled Water Awards were announced at a gala dinner on 21 October in Lisbon. The awards attracted over 100 entries from 22 countries in 11 categories, demonstrating creativity, innovation, marketing, community initiative and environmental best practise.
The awards were a highlight of the 12th Global Bottled Water Congress and were organised in conjunction with media partners Beveragedaily.com, Beverfood, and the International Bottles Water Association. POW, from The Powerful Water Company, was announced as the winner within the Best Functional Water category – an impressive achievement for the innovative creator of the UK’s first natural energy water.
Founder of The Powerful Water Company, Ed Woolner, comments: “This is fantastic recognition for POW. We have some exciting plans for 2016 and we will continue to focus on delivering healthier functional beverages to the soft drinks industry. As the Natural Alternative we will build off of the exciting launch in 2015 to spread more positive energy to consumers across the globe.”
The Powerful Water Company is committed to developing healthier drinks using natural ingredients. Aiming to celebrate the true power of water, POW delivers a positive energy lift that is low in sugar, low in calories and free from artificial additives:
- POW combines Guarana, Ginseng Root and Vitamin B to deliver a natural energy boost with the same amount of caffeine that you would find within one single cup of green tea;
- Mineral salts are added to aid rehydration, resulting in refreshing, naturally coloured, fruit- flavoured water that is free from artificial colourings and sweeteners;
- Containing between 40-44 calories, each 440ml bottle of POW begins with a lightly sparkling water that is delicately sweetened with fresh fruits and the plant extract Stevia.
The Powerful Water Company works closely with suppliers, retailers and consumers, always striving to reduce its impact on the environment. From bottle to label, POW’s new packaging is 100 per cent recyclable and contains an eye catching recycling message along the length of the bottle encouraging consumers to dispose of the packaging responsibly.
POW (440ml) is available across the UK & Ireland in three invigorating flavours: POW Citrus & Zest, POW Coconut & Lime and POW Cranberry & Apple.
Priced at £1.49, POW can be found on shelves in Waitrose, Ocado, Amazon, Superdrug, Boots, BP and stores across Ireland. For further information on The Powerful Water Company visit www.powerfulwater.co.uk.
