Meet the founder
Édouard created Orinko in 2019 with the goal of offering products that allow everyone to avoid buying a plastic bottle. Thanks to a friend returning from a trip to Japan, he discovered binchotan, a charcoal that purifies tap water. Seeing that the offer was lacking in France, he decided to market it.
About the brand
Orinko is a young family business from Strasbourg offering alternative everyday products that are more respectful of the environment and people. They have joined forces to improve daily life through zero waste.
The eco-responsible impact
It is urgent for them to change their consumption habits and turn to an alternative that is respectful of people, sustainable, zero waste, and whose production does not involve unreasonable pressure on natural resources. Thus, all their products and suppliers are carefully chosen according to different criteria.
1% of the amount of "Orinko" purchases made is donated to ARUTAM, their partner association working for reforestation in the Amazon.
