Bottled water with a conscience

Deb Belinsky believes drinking water shouldn’t have to travel farther than from the nearest tap to get to your table.

After attending a dinner in Memphis a couple of years ago at which the bottled water cost more than the wine — that can happen at $12 for a bottle of water — she began researching statistics on bottled water and was astounded by what she found.

For starters, she discovered only one in five water bottles is recycled, leaving the other four to contribute to three billion pounds of waste.

In an effort to reduce that pile one bottle at a time, she has launched Tabl’eau Filtered Water, a new Winnipeg-based company that provides water filtration and chiller systems and reusable bottles to restaurants and hotels. (The name is a play on table and the French word for water.)

Its filtration technology eliminates 99 per cent of contaminants from local water, produces a high-quality product and reduces the carbon footprint.
