ENGLEWOOD, Colo., April 29 /PRNewswire/ -- New Wave Enviro Products Inc is proud to offer their new Better Water Bottle Filter and Corn Based Bottle to its line of money saving, green living, reusable water products.

At under $9.00 for the combination Corn Bottle and Better Water Bottle Filter, the cost for filtered water is less than 5 cents per 8 ounce glass, making this product wallet-friendly, as well as Earth-friendly. In addition, this compact 4" x 1-1/4" filter fits any standard water bottle and removes chlorine from tap water as you drink from the bottle.

A recent report by the Earth Policy Institute found that bottled water requires over 2.7 million tons of plastic annually to create water bottles, taking between 400 and 1,000 years to decompose(1), a major threat to the environment and a central issue to address. New Wave Enviro Products' Corn Bottle (16.9 ounces) is made of the most renewable polymer available - NatureWorks'(R) PLA - through a fermentation process using 100% annually renewable resources like corn. This product is completely recyclable and compostable.

In addition to the environmental effects of bottled water and the excessive number of bottles going to landfills, concerns are also mounting about the health effect of toxins, specifically chlorine, in public water supplies. "Chlorine is a toxic gas which attacks living cells. Today, chlorine is used to treat municipal water supplies to kill micro-organisms," explains Lee Archer, President of New Wave Enviro Products. "New Wave Enviro Products' Better Water Bottle Filter removes chlorine and other impurities from municipal tap water anywhere, anytime." The Better Water Bottle Filter and Corn-based Bottle allows the user to effortlessly obtain fresh, good-tasting drinking water while reducing plastic waste at the same time, a true celebration for Earth Month.
