OUR MODEL

Teuk Saat 1001 model is based on 4 pillars:

    • Business model: ensure daily production and delivery.
    • Affordability: a solution suitable for all budgets (<3% of household income)
    • Accessibility: door-to-door delivery of 20L bottles to ensure best services to our beneficiaries
    • Quality: monitor water monthly to ensure the long-term quality

Based on these four pillars, we are offering 3 solutions:

    • Support the installation of water kiosks in rural communities.
    • Support entrepreneurs to ensure sustainable access to drinking water.
    • Providing access to safe drinking water to all children in Cambodia through the Water in Schools program.

OUR WATER KIOSKS

With its strong hygiene, bottle cleaning, packaging and storage procedures, Teuk Saat 1001 is meeting the norms and standards of the World Health Organization. Concretely, within a water kiosk, thanks to a pump and a piped water system, surface or underground water is collected, stored in a tank, poured into filters (sand filter, filter carbon, micro filter) and finally disinfected using a UV lamp. This process eliminates all bacteria to produce clean water of consistent quality. The water is then poured into 20-liter bottles and ready for consumption.

Innovation is part of the Teuk Saat 1001 strategy

Year after year, our team continually works to improve the production, delivery and distribution systems of water kiosks.

Our priorities today are:

Ergonomics: reduce hardness and accelerate water production.

Water quality: make the treatment system more adaptable to local water sources, ensuring taste and quality over time.

Connectivity: integrate sensors to monitor production in real time and anticipate key maintenance interventions.

Delivery: upgrade the vehicle to facilitate longer journeys and position O-we as a premium brand differentiated from  competitors.
