Fern Lacey
Founder
The idea for VARAE began while travelling.
I found myself constantly buying bottled water. Not because I wanted to, but because I wasn’t confident in what was coming from the tap. It felt like the only reliable option.
At home, I filter my water. As a mum, I’m always thinking about what my family drinks too.
I kept asking why there wasn't a simple way to do the same thing on the go. Something you could carry. Something you could rely on. A bottle that filtered water as you drink it.
When I couldn't find one I trusted, I decided to build it.
