Greene Concepts Inc. (OTCID:INKW) is celebrating a milestone after its premium American artesian bottled spring water, Be Water, was included in this year’s “Everyone Wins” Nominee Gift Bags, independently produced by Distinctive Assets and presented to select Oscar nominees in major acting and directing categories. Recipients included Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael B. Jordan, Jessie Buckley, Kate Hudson, Rose Byrne, Jacob Elordi, Elle Fanning, Teyana Taylor, Delroy Lindo, and Josh Safdie.
While the award season celebrates cinematic achievement, Be Water reflects a different kind of craftsmanship shaped by nature, geology, and responsible sourcing. The water is sourced from springs and aquifer formations beneath North Carolina’s Blue Ridge Mountains, where rainwater travels through billion-year-old bedrock, naturally filtering and absorbing trace minerals like calcium, magnesium, and silica. This natural journey creates a smooth taste and balanced mineral profile long before the water reaches the surface.
“Many bottled waters are engineered after collection,” said Lenny Greene, Founder and CEO of Greene Concepts Inc. “Be Water is created underground through natural filtration and geological processes. Our responsibility is stewardship - withdrawing only what the aquifer naturally replaces so the source remains sustainable for generations.” Once collected, the water undergoes gentle filtration and ozone treatment to preserve its natural mineral composition, with nothing added and nothing stripped away.
Be Water is bottled at the company’s owned and operated 60,000-square-foot facility in Marion, North Carolina, ensuring transparency and quality control. The thicker BPA-free packaging reinforces durability while supporting the brand’s quality positioning between luxury imported waters and commodity bottled tap water. Be Water is currently available on Amazon, select Walmart locations, Walmart.com, and Camping World, with continued national expansion underway.
The aquifer supplying Be Water lies within a fractured crystalline bedrock system formed during the Grenville Orogeny more than one billion years ago. Rainwater infiltrates forested recharge zones and moves slowly through soil, regolith, and narrow fractures in ancient metamorphic rock before entering the aquifer. During this journey, the rock acts as a natural filtration system, producing naturally mineralized spring water with low dissolved solids, balanced pH, and naturally occurring minerals that contribute to Be Water’s clean taste and smooth finish.
