About

The first of its kind in Africa, and scientifically-proven, KURO-Bō Activated Charcoal Sticks are a completely plastic-free, sustainable and recyclable water purification solution. The ultimate next generation of water filter – for home or for travel.

Whether paired with our 100% Recycled Glass Water Dispensers (6L/12.5L) or your own carafe/jug/dispenser, a single stick of KURO-Bō Charcoal provides 3+ months of daily cartridge-free and naturally purified water. The charcoal stick will purify up to 3L of water at a time. For greater volumes, simply add extra sticks.

Activated charcoal, or Binchotan attracts and draws out positively-charged toxins (chemicals, heavy metals, E. coli) from your water, while depositing beneficial minerals and balancing an acidic pH.

After 3 months of daily use, recycle your KURO-Bō Activated Charcoal Stick in any number of innovative and eco-friendly ways, for example, in your pet’s bowl, as a biochar on your plants, as an organic air purifier or dehumidifier, or in your fridge to prolong the shelf life of your fresh fruit and vegetables.

Directions
  • Remove the Kuro-Bo stick from its compostable corn starch bag & boil in a shallow pan of tap water for 10 minutes

  • For best results, allow the charcoal to rest for a minimum of 6 hours, ideally over night, although it starts purifying immediately. Can rest at room temperature or in the fridge
  • After 1 month of daily use, reactivate your charcoal stick. Simply boil it again for 10 minutes, allow to cool, and reuse as before
  • Repeat the reactivation again after 2 months of daily use
  • After 3+ months of daily use, recycle & replace the charcoal

Writer's block

Ours is about 3 feet by 3 feet, and on our left is the account's block. The marketing block is down the hall.

We're joking. Obviously.

Ours is at least 5 by 5, and on Wednesdays we're allowed to write in coffee shops to maintain the illusion that we're "successful" and "writerly".

Coming up with a write up for the simple sake of a write up does, however, become difficult when we're staring complete lack of creativity right in the face. But apparently asking management to cancel all the deals for the day isn't a viable fix.

As they so delicately put it, it'd be like a comedian having the option to suddenly cancel a show if they're not feeling up to it. Not on our watch, they said. You'll do a write up whether you like it or not, they said. And be funny, they said.

So here we are, doing a write up and being funny.
