An Interview With Justin Wang, CEO & Co-Founder Of LARQ

Listen to this article

Below is our recent interview with Justin Wang, CEO & Co-Founder of LARQ:

Q: This is the first time we have spoken. Can you provide a brief overview of LARQ?

A: LARQ was started with a simple vision where innovative technology can be combined with inspirational design to help people access pristine drinking water easily and sustainably. The company combines innovative technology with refined design to make it easier for people to make the healthier and more sustainable choice, anytime and anywhere. The company is headquartered in the San Francisco Bay Area, CA.

Q: Way is important? Tell us something more about your product?

A: The LARQ Bottle and LARQ Bottle Movement both use our proprietary PureVisTM UV-C LED technology to combat most common complaints about reusable water bottles: odor and contamination, difficulty cleaning, and shortage of on-the-go access to pure drinking water. At the touch of a button, the bottle cap emits UV-C light, eradicating up to 99.9999% of harmful, odor-causing bacteria and viruses. The technology activates every two hours, basking the water and the inner surface in purifying UV light to keep your water and bottle free of germs.

Q: How would you say your offering is better than competitors that would offer a similar product?

A: Other reusable bottles are great if you have the time to invest in cleaning them. It is recommended that reusable water bottles be cleaned multiple times per week to combat bacterial growth inside the bottle and the water inside, often leading to a musty or sticky smell. With most not being dishwasher safe, this proves to be a difficult task to maintain. The LARQ Bottle is self-cleaning, using our patented PureVisTM UV-C LED light to clean the inside of the bottle and the water inside in as little as 60-seconds, eradicating 99.9999% of bio-contaminants, and keeping your bottle smelling and tasting fresh.

Q: What can we expect from LARQ in next 12 months?

A: We plan to use the funding for product and retail expansion. We are already available in the US, Canada, UK and France, but with this additional funding we plan to expand to the areas who have expressed the most demand for our products, including all of the EU in 2020 and further plans to expand to APAC later this year and into 2021.

In addition, LARQ plans to use the funding to expand and develop its product line into a 360-degree hydration brand, beginning with the new LARQ Pitcher, launched earlier this month. The LARQ Pitcher is a sustainable solution for hydration at home or in the office, providing pure water beyond simple filtration with the additions of PureVis TM UV-C LED technology, and LARQ’s innovative new plant-based filter which uses 75% less plastic and removes harmful contaminants like lead from the water.The LARQ Pitcher is currently available for pre-order: https://www.livelarq.com/larq-pitcher

Q: Thank you for your time. Is there anything you’d like to add before we wrap up?

A: LARQ commits 1% of its proceeds to benefit various charities that strive to make clean drinking water more accessible and omit plastic pollution, through its partnership with 1% for the Planet.
