Waterborne diseases are still a global threat — OPUS®One offers a simple solution
Access to clean drinking water is a basic human right — yet over 2 billion people still rely on contaminated sources. For these communities, every glass of water could carry life-threatening bacteria, parasites, or viruses. Waterborne diseases remain a leading cause of illness and death, particularly among young children.
OPUS®One is designed to change that — offering a safe, off-grid, and maintenance-free solution to prevent waterborne illness at the point of use.
The Global Impact of Unsafe Water
Contaminated water leads to diseases such as:
Cholera
Dysentery
Typhoid
Hepatitis A
Giardiasis
Diarrheal diseases
According to the World Health Organization (WHO):
Over 485,000 people die each year from diarrheal diseases linked to unsafe water and poor sanitation.
1 in 4 healthcare facilities globally lack basic water services.
Children under 5 are especially vulnerable — over 800 children die every day due to preventable water-related illnesses.
"Clean water saves lives. OPUS®One makes it possible — anytime, anywhere."
How OPUS®One Reduces Risk
OPUS®One is a decentralized water purification system that removes bacteria, viruses, parasites, and micro-pollutants— providing safe water where centralized infrastructure doesn't exist.
Key health benefits:
Removes pathogens at the point of use — no need for boiling, chemicals, or storage in unsafe containers.
Eliminates the risk of recontamination often seen with trucked or stored water.
No electricity required — ensures continuous protection even in remote or crisis-affected areas.
Ideal for households, schools, and clinics — protecting vulnerable groups like children, pregnant women, and the elderly.
Improving Public Health, One Unit at a Time
When OPUS®One is installed in a community:
Fewer people fall sick from waterborne illnesses
Children stay healthy and attend school
Families spend less on medical care
Health systems are less burdened
Outbreaks of diseases like cholera and dysentery can be prevented before they begin
A Healthier Future Is Possible
Waterborne diseases are preventable — not inevitable. OPUS®One delivers a practical, scalable tool to reduce illness, improve quality of life, and protect the most vulnerable populations from water-related health threats.
