Project Innovation

The LARQ utilises a patented UV-C LED to purify water in just 60 seconds.

280 nanometer UV light is ideal to eradicate germs, triggering a photochemical reaction that destroys their DNA. UV-C light is widely used today in hospitals to sterilize patient room surfaces.

The bottle self cleans every 2 hours, and lasts up to 1 month on a single charge
