Yellow Wheels for a Brighter Future
ROLLAID
Yellow Wheels wants to spread our message of hope and compassion. We believe that a single action and a single donation can make a difference, because every barrel counts. Join us in raising awareness and advocating for clean water for all.
ABOUT
Our Roots
Here at Yellow Wheels we promote clean water and sanitation for all. The wheels that we design are provided to villages in rural Kenya and through your support we can improve accessibility of clean water for countless individuals.
THE DESIGN
After careful deliberation, we finalised the design of our wheel. In order for the product to be effective, we believe it has to be simple and easy for anyone to use. Through this process, we had to consider the terrain, the weather conditions, the durability and the cost-effectiveness of the design.
NANYUKI, KENYA
This is the state of affairs in many Kenyan villages, where unsanitary, contaminated buckets are being used to transport water. This poses as a serious health risk to the society, yet a solution to address this issue has not been implemented.
TERRAIN
This is the terrain where women have to walk daily, carrying water on their heads to transport back to their families. In the scorching heat with heavy buckets, this is no easy task.
ABOUT THE NANOFILTER
Nanofiltration is a new and upcoming method of membrane filtration to purify water. It is often used with surface water and fresh groundwater to remove the soluble substances larger than 0.001 micrometers and is 99.99% effective. Our filter comes in a spiral-wound format and is made from several materials such as synthetic polymers, ceramics and more.
