Do you trust the quality of bottled water? A 2024 study found that a liter of bottled water contains around 240,000 plastic particles, with 90% of those being nanoplastics. This is 10 to 100 times more plastic than previous studies, which focused on larger microplastics. The particles can include all seven types of plastic, with polyamide and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) being the most common. (source: The National Institutes of Health) People may start doubting the quality of water in plastic bottles. Switching to aluminum isn't a better choice either, as it's lined with polymer, adding to the plastic consumption. Let's consider the alternatives... Kadeya’s innovative closed-loop beverage vending solution is a healthier alternative for workplaces: 💧 Our water goes through advanced filtration, eliminating 99% of microplastics. 💧 Your bottled water or beverage is bottled on demand in a stainless steel container. 💧 Because it's bottled on demand, it’s also not sitting in plastic packaging in hot temperatures.

🌡️ New OSHA Regulations to Protect US Workers from Heat Stress. What are your thoughts? In a significant move towards ensuring worker safety, the first-ever federal standards to protect US workers from heat stress are set to be introduced. These proposed requirements come at a crucial time, as record-breaking temperatures amplify the risks of heat exposure on the job. 🔑 Key Highlights: ➡️ The Labor Department’s proposal mandates access to drinking water, cooling areas, and rest breaks for workers exposed to high temperatures. ➡️ The regulation is expected to cover an estimated 36 million workers, including those in states where such safeguards have been limited. ➡️ Employers will need to implement acclimatization plans for new or returning employees, ensuring gradual workload increases and regular rest breaks. With extreme heat being the top weather-related killer in the US, this landmark rule by OSHA aims to protect workers in construction, steel mills, and other high-risk environments. This initiative not only underscores the importance of worker safety but also emphasizes the need for sustainable workplace practices. At Kadeya, we’re committed to supporting the well being of workers by providing easy to implement waste-free hydration solutions for businesses to keep workers safe, hydrated, and productive. 📅 Learn more about this significant development and how it could impact your industry via link below ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/gZNAYDRb #WorkerSafety #OSHA #HeatStress #ClimateChange #Sustainability #Construction #Manufacturing #Kadeya

Hear how Kadeya's plastic free hydration stations have transformed a construction project job sites with over 1,100 workers... 🚰♻️ Our client, a leading construction and real estate development firm, recently shared their experience: "What am I going to do when Kadeya leaves? Go back to buying plastic bottles?" ➡ THE CHALLENGE: Managing a large-scale project with over 1,100 workers, they faced the dual challenge of maintaining #labor availability and demonstrating their commitment to #sustainability. Delays due to labor shortages were a significant risk, and showcasing their sustainability efforts to the community was crucial. ➡ THE SOLUTION: Kadeya installed a prototype hydration station on the job site, offering cold, high-quality water in reusable stainless steel bottles. The innovative scan-in, scan-out system ensured a 99% return rate for the bottles, reducing plastic waste and carbon emissions. ➡ THE RESULTS: 👷♀️ Worker Acceptance: Employees were enthusiastic about the new, convenient, and sustainable solution. 🔄 Return Rates: Achieved a 99% return rate, demonstrating the system's effectiveness in a dynamic environment. 🌎 Impact: Saved over 250 plastic bottles, equivalent to reducing the project CO2e footprint by 155 metric tons, or averting over 397,000 miles driven by average gasoline-powered vehicles.

Pepsi published its annual impact report last week. What most caught my eye is this comment by Jim Andrew, CSO: "No company can do this by themselves. It's about collaboration and partnership to drive change.” Couldn’t agree more. Scope 3 is the company's biggest sustainability challenge. The same is true of the rest of the beverage industry, and many are far behind Pepsi. "It's about 94% of our total [footprint], including transportation, packaging, agriculture. It requires systemic changes,” Andrew told the WSJ. Waking up today feeling optimistic, because the big players are reading the writing on the wall: transportation and packaging are carbon sunk costs. These are the conclusions that have guided Kadeya from Day 0.
