SPONSORSPARTNERS
English spring water business Aqua British has joined Harlequins as the Club’s Official Water Supplier, providing water to both the Men’s and Women’s squads, as well as The Twickenham Stoop.
Aqua British launched in the UK earlier this year - 100% of the packaging, including the cap and label, is biodegradable, offering consumers an environmentally friendly option for their bottled water.
Harlequins CEO Laurie Dalrymple said: “This partnership will provide our players with not only the best water for hydration and recovery but will also support the Club’s ongoing efforts to being sustainable.
Aqua British CEO Harshit Mishra said: “It is a pleasure to sign this partnership with Harlequins. They, like us, are looking to lead the way in their industry with innovative ideas and we hope we can help the side reduce their plastic waste with our 100 per cent biodegradable bottles.”
The water brand pledges to spend four pence from every Aqua British bottle sold on planting trees with the One Tree Planted charity, as well as donating to charities such as the Mayor’s Fund for London, The Harlequins Foundation and The Felix Project (a charity distributing food to fight hunger in London), in addition to financing needed biowaste bins across the United Kingdom.
