THE SCIENCE BEHIND COPPER: WHY PAANI BOTTLES ARE MORE THAN JUST A WELLNESS TREND
In a world increasingly focused on health and sustainability, Paani Copper Water Bottles stand out by blending ancient wisdom with modern science. These handcrafted vessels are not only eco-friendly but also offer scientifically-backed wellness benefits.
Copper's Antimicrobial Power: Backed by Research
Copper has been recognised for its antimicrobial properties for centuries, and recent studies have confirmed its effectiveness. Research led by Professor Bill Keevil at the University of Southampton demonstrated that copper used by Paani can rapidly elinate harmful bacteria. In one study, E. coli bacteria were eliminated within 1 hour on dry and wet copper surfaces on Paani Bottles. This property makes copper an excellent material for reducing the spread of infections.

Further studies have shown that copper surfaces can also inactivate other dangerous pathogens, including Klebsiella pneumoniae, which is known for causing hospital-acquired infections . These findings highlight copper's potential in promoting hygiene and health.
Verified Purity: SGS Certification
At Paani, we prioritise the purity of our copper products. Whether it is the copper water bottles, copper cups or the tongue scrapers. To ensure this, we have our products tested by SGS, a leading inspection and certification company. Their tests confirm that our products are made of 99.9% pure copper and are free from harmful metals. This high level of purity ensures that you receive the maximum benefits associated with copper.
Craftsmanship and Essential Trace Minerals
Pure copper is a soft metal, which can pose challenges in crafting durable products. To enhance strength and durability, small amounts of manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn) are added during the manufacturing process. These trace minerals are not only essential for structural integrity but also play vital roles in human health, supporting various bodily functions.
Each Paani copper item is meticulously handcrafted from a single sheet of copper, ensuring a seamless design that maintains the metal's natural properties. This process preserves the bottle's ability to infuse water with beneficial minerals.
Health Benefits of Copper
Factual scientific reasons are that mainly it’s a essential mineral that our body requires but also:
-
Improved Digestion: Copper can stimulate peristalsis, the rhythmic contraction of
the digestive tract, and help eliminate harmful bacteria, promoting better digestion.
-
Enhanced Immunity: The antimicrobial properties of copper can help strengthen the
immune system by reducing the risk of infections.
-
Skin Health: Copper aids in the production of melanin, which is essential for skin
health and protection against UV radiation.
These benefits align with traditional practices and are supported by modern scientific
research.
