Water from the faucet or tap in the Philippines is not safe for drinking, and the quality of the water does not meet the standards set by the national government, especially in urban areas.
Data from the United Nations and Unicef showed that a majority, 53 percent of households in the Philippines do not have access to a safely managed water supply, with 48 percent of the population receiving safely managed or piped water services. The situation in schools is even more severe, with 55 percent lacking access to pure and healthy water.
The lack of access to essential water and sanitation services among a large part of the Philippine population results in illness, malnutrition, and childhood stunting. Indeed, nearly one-third of Filipino children suffer from stunting.
Indeed, according to the 2022 Annual Poverty Indicators Survey (APIS), more than half of the population source their drinking water from water filter system and bottled water (54.3 percent). But this comes at a cost, with Filipino consumers spending up to P7,000 in monthly water filter system expenses.

“Karofi was established with a mission to protect and enhance every people's health in any environment. We have a mission to protect the water we drink and we are now one of the leading brands globally with a presence in 50 countries. We should all live beautifully.” ~Huong Elly, Karofi Chief Customer Officer
“I am excited to be here today. I have been using water purifiers for a long time because we are trying to minimize our use of plastic bottles [which clogs the drainage system and adds to global warming]. I have been loving Karofi water filters so far, and I like their new counter top water purifier with hot and cold water functionalities at the turn of a knob. Plus, the water quality tastes so good, in addition to being so healthy. Water is a basic necessity and we consume it on a daily basis. We have to make sure that the water we provide our family is of maximum quality. Karofi's water purifiers offer the most health benefits, with the safest and healthiest features. I am so impressed. This gives us more reason to try Karofi water purifiers because of its quality. The questions you may ask yourselves are “Is the water purifier safe?” and How to install [Karofi] water filter?” The answers are, yes, water purifiers are safe, and it's easy to install them. Karofi is the best water purifier for home.” ~Coleen Garcia, Actress, the official endorser of Karofi Water Purifier
Meanwhile, Elly explained that hydrogen neutralizes and alkaline water fights oxidants and free radicals for healthy cells and bodies. Karofi's cheap water filter system will enable Filipinos to drink water directly from the tap without the need to boil it or buy it from refilling stations or bottled water. It is the best cheap water filter in the market.
Karofi’s water purifier filters also use Nano Silver, which kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms, including pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and fungi, but causes little to no damage to the human body. Nano Silver prevents re-infection when water circulates in the filter system.
"The economics of the water purifier are better. Karofi's water filters have hydrogen and alkaline for better health, safe and clean water to prepare milk for babies, and a safe water source that meets the standards set by the Philippine National Standard for Drinking Water and regulator of FDA Certified Water Filters." ~Karofi said
In addition, Karofi's water purifiers could reduce the cost of clean drinking water to only between P1,000 and P1,500 in six to eight months.
Garcia highlighted the health benefits of alkaline water in the body, but added sometimes it is a challenge where to buy alkaline water.
