The Spatap is an [eco-friendly](https://greenlivingguy.com/2021/03/5-products-you-didnt-know-had-eco-friendly-alternatives/),
water-saving device that can provide sanitation to anyone in the world whilst also
benefitting the environment. Small enough to fit in your pocket, the Spatap has 
the ability to ration out 2L of water to provide up to 30 hand washes, or three 
showers, for both children and adults. The way the Spatap rations water is central
to its functionality, as it limits water wastage and allows maximum utility.

Made from 100% recyclable materials, [Spatap](https://greenlivingguy.com/2019/05/national-grids-pipeline-plans-under-scrutiny/)
is working to help the environment and decrease pollution by minimizing the waste
of plastic bottles. Approximately 13% of all plastic bottles are recycled, with 
the rest taking years to decompose and causing damage to our environment. If not
recycled, plastic bottles end up in landfills, riverbeds, or our oceans, yet Spatap
aims to increase the number of plastic bottles that are reused to help stop this
pollution.

## The Spatap and the Environment

The Spatap works as a form of ‘upcycling.’ Upcycling takes waste products and converts
them into material that is more beneficial to people and the environment. With its
unique force fit system for any bottle, the Spatap is convenient for any person 
to use.

According to the World Water Council, 9 million people die yearly due to a lack 
of access to clean water. Unfortunately, the water crisis is steadily increasing.
More than two out of six people lacking adequate sanitation.

The device aims to reduce these statistics. How? By providing people with the ability
to wash hands or shower anywhere, at any time. The Spatap is also ideal for recreational
activities such as camping, hiking, and various sports. That’s because the Spatap
provides people with quick and easy water access. Simply connect the Spatap onto
any bottle, and you are able to control the release of its water to create a shower
or tap to wash.

Proven to be a hit with children, the Spatap is also raising eco-consciousness in
young people. This serves as critical to the future as we all learn to preserve 
the environment. Whether it’s for humanitarian, sporting or just anything outdoors,
the Spatap’s portability and its ability to strap up in any place make it a suitable
source for hygiene. The Spatap was funded through a Kickstarter campaign beginning
on the 12th of May and is also available for sale.
