WATERBRICK Be Prepared Not Scared

In 2003 Jean-Michel Cousteau, the son of legendary oceanographer Jacques Cousteau, met with his friend, Wendell Adams, founder and inventor of WaterBrick. During their conversation, Jean-Michel challenged Wendell to address the global need for clean water and the recycling of plastic waste worldwide. What started as a casual conversation soon became the catalyst for a major movement. Adams accepted Cousteau’s challenge and became determined to create a plastic water container that could deliver water and food to people living in remote, impoverished parts of the world and also victims of natural disasters like storms, tsunamis and earthquakes. That container, once emptied of its contents, could then be repurposed to build transitional or basic housing.

One awesome idea; four years of research and development by Wendell Adams and his engineering team finally led to the creation of the WaterBrick. In its simplest form, WaterBrick is a container. But not just any container. Its Utility Patented design is uniquely multi-functional and “Wildly Strong” serving many needs.

Easy to transport, WaterBricks can uniquely transport life essentials; serving water and food to those in need. Because of their rugged industrial strength, they can be palletized, shrink-wrapped and air-dropped anywhere in the world, no matter how remote the location. But their functionality goes beyond their capacity as the strongest container on the market . . .

Once emptied of their original contents, WaterBricks can be re-used as basic building blocks to construct transitional or fixed structures. Properly used, they require no foundation or mortar; just stack them like conventional building blocks. The male and female locking lugs fit tightly together, and 3/4′ PVC pipes can vertically lock the joints together if necessary. The resulting structure is astonishingly strong.

Thus, WaterBrick not only delivers water and food to those in need in any hard-to-reach location, but in doing so, they can also provide the means to build basic housing, serve during disaster relief or prepare one’s family for potential catastrophic events.

WaterBrick International’s corporate office is based in Winter Garden, Florida. WaterBricks are currently being manufactured in Clinton, Iowa but the company is exploring additional manufacturing locations in the mid western part of the United States as well.
