About

The Birth of Gobie

The GOBIEH2O water bottle is the eco-friendly brainchild of artist and designer Rusty Allen. After earning his B.F.A. in Industrial Design from the acclaimed Savannah College of Art and Design, Rusty packed his bags and headed to sunny Hermosa Beach, California. Five years into a diverse career as an industrial designer, he found himself working on a range of products in a variety of industries, including kids toys, consumer housewares and electronics, professional industrial kitchen products, and medical products – and decided he wanted to use his skills to develop a breakthrough product that does something great for the environment. He had a dream, and wanted to follow his optimistic ambition.

At the same time, the media was full of bad news: natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina, the discovery of human disasters like the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, the alarming estimate of 600,000 plastic water bottles being thrown away by Americans every 15 minutes. Always ready for a challenge – and knowing he had the skills and drive to help make a change – Rusty made a pivotal decision. He quit his job and made a commitment to developing something meaningful, something that would help reverse the devastating impact our plastic waste has on the earth.

Rusty’s first challenge: Design something absolutely basic, but absolutely essential– and make sure it helps solve the plastic waste problem we’ve created in America. From that directive came GOBIEH2O: the world’s first fully portable, reusable, zero-waste, filtered water bottle.

GOBIEH2O: pure water, anywhere.

Gobie Filter

filter

The GOBIEH2O carbon filter is a critical element of the bottle’s innovative design. Sourced from one of the best filtration development companies in the world and designed with a commitment to conservation and reusability, the GOBIEH2O filter features an ingenious design with a strong scientific pedigree. More

Carbon is an extremely porous organic material that snares a wide range of harsh chemicals and contaminants. One step past that is activated carbon, which has a positive electrical charge added, therefore making it an even better magnet for chemicals and impurities. Active carbon filters have been shown to be the most effective method for filtering water – so that’s what we use.

In keeping with GOBIE’s commitment to sustainable resources, low-impact manufacturing and providing support for eco-conscious businesses, the GOBIEH2O filters are developed using one of Mother Nature’s own natural resources: coconuts! The strong fibers in the coconut shell are heated and infused with pure oxygen to create the carbon granules that will become the filter for your water. The best part of using coconut shell as the filter material is that while millions of coconuts are grown for use in carbon filters, the growing process is great for the environment – the acres upon acres of lush, green trees put back more beneficial elements into the atmosphere than they take away. It’s a renewable resource that’s good for the world during its entire life cycle!

The GOBIEH2O water filter is an impressive workhorse, too. You’ll be able to filter 100 gallons of regular tap water – turning it into clean, pure, delicious water – before you need to change your filter. 100 gallons! In bottled water terms, that’s 800 plastic water bottles you won’t be using once and then throwing away. Go GOBIE – and go green.
