Brian Conlan, the CEO of Captiva Verde states:
“We are blessed to have the calibre and quality of leadership from Josh Cook within our advisory board. Josh will be a key advisor as we build out our patented utility scale atmospheric water stations around the world.”

Atmospheric water is precisely “fresh rain water”. When the atmosphere cools; water is then released from the moisture in the air. A water station (comprising 1 to 100+ individual 100 gpd units), simply moves the cloud from 5000 feet, down to ground level. But our added bonus is that the moisture in the air does not have to travel 5000 feet up and return 5000 feet down as water, eliminating 10,000 feet of pollution and particles. The moisture is drained of its pure water at one place. Added to that, we add 3 intake air filters and three discharge water filters for 100% purity. We deliver pure virgin water. The Origen patented units are 30% more efficient in kwh to gallon production than any competitor in the world. Captiva Verde is working on very large-scale government contracts.

Our large (10,000+ gpd), Captiva Verde water stations, to be constructed across the world, cost a fraction of traditional infrastructure upgrades, but delivers pure virgin water. This creates a new economy, a new industry, new jobs, and delivers pure water that is both “plastic free” and produced “on location,” rather than being shipped for hundreds of miles. Our Origen stations are where sustainability meets purity. Here is the link to our two-minute video:
