Spritzer Malaysia Sends Mineral Water to Families Affected by Flood in Kedah and Perak

Spritzer Malaysia (“Spritzer” or the “Company”), which produces Malaysia’s best-selling natural mineral water, is again bringing aid by sending bottle water to victims of the flash floods in the northern region of Peninsular Malaysia who are in need of safe and clean drinking water sources following the recent heavy downpour.
The Company has sent more than 30,000 bottles of Spritzer Natural Mineral Water to flood victims in Gurun and Yan in Kedah and Alor Pongsu in Perak whose homes were affected by the floodwaters, with a number of residents in all these areas having been evacuated to relief centres.

Spritzer has been donating aid to flood victims and rescue crews, especially those in flash floods affected areas, where victims may not have access to drinking water which is important for hydration and ensuring hygiene at all times.

Spritzer draws its silicon-rich mineral water sources from an environmentally safe and substantiable facility in Taiping, Perak surrounded by a tropical rainforest that is more than 200-million-year-old. Silicon-rich mineral water has also been found to be beneficial to health, which helps reduce or eliminate aluminium toxins found in bodies.

Spritzer Malaysia Urges Rakyat Malaysia to Get COVID-19 Vaccination

Spritzer Malaysia (“Spritzer” or the “Company”), which produces Malaysia’s best-selling natural mineral water, is urging Rakyat Malaysia to register themselves for the COVID-19 vaccination to protect themselves and those around them from the spread of new variants that are more transmissible and deadlier given that only about half of the country’s population is registered.
Since the pandemic started in 2020, the Company has been working closely with frontliners such as the medical team, police force, the military and enforcement agencies to ensure that there is clean water supply available, nationwide. In view of the seriousness of the pandemic, Spritzer has continuously contributed mineral water to several COVID-19 vaccination centres as a support to frontliners, volunteers and those going for vaccination to ensure their most basic need is taken care of. Apart from these initiatives, Spritzer also supports Civil Defence Force teams who are assigned to bury COVID-19 victims in the Klang Valley.

Spritzer understands the sacrifices made by the frontliners and enforcement agencies in attending to their duties, especially in tough weather conditions, while the recent jump in infections have further stressed the healthcare system with shortages of ICU beds and tired medical teams.

As most of the Spritzer employees have not been able to secure their vaccination appointments, the Company has taken the initiative to acquire the vaccines as part of its response to prioritising their safety and health. This vaccination programme will begin this month.

Spritzer hopes that everyone is doing their bit in fighting the pandemic by following the standard operating procedures as laid down by the National Security Council and also adhere to the guidelines provided by the Ministry of Health.

The interactive screen introduces Spritzer’s pristine 330-acre site in Taiping, Perak surrounded by a tropical rainforest, where silica-rich natural mineral water is extracted from underground aquifers.

Visitors can recycle their bottles after enjoying samples by Spritzer as the bottles are fully recyclable, including the caps and labels, which are made with 100% polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

Spritzer is calling for all to be a part in creating a second life to all PET packaging, which can be reproduced into items including containers, clothing, protective packaging, green energy and many more, within one day with the current recycling technology. Bottles for Acilis by Spritzer range, which is environmentally conscious natural mineral water in the Malaysian market, are first plant-based bottles made in Malaysia made with up to 30% sugar cane waste and is 100% recyclable.

Recycling used bottles will create a second life to the bottle and effectively reducing the percentage of landfill waste.
