The Water Project

By nihi Uncategorized

In our effort to preserve the ecosystem of Sumba and to rid ourselves of single-use plastics, we are now producing our very own remineralized drinking water.

Though we are on an island surrounded by the sea, this was no small feat.

Our ocean is very rough and difficult to source water from, so we called in the help of many professionals to find the solution and create a sustainable source of clean drinking water.

After years of hard work, the wells are ready, and we are pumping sea water through a reverse osmosis system that removes salinity and any impurities. The water then cycles through a state-of-the-art bottling plant, where we clean it further, remineralize it, and bottle it in reusable Nihi glass bottles.

Sealed with our Nihi stickers, we dispatch the water throughout the resort. Grab an earth-friendly papaya plant straw, and take a sip!

Every second month we get together and vote for our Employees of the Month, both front-of-house and back-of-house.

This month, two extraordinary women had the honor: Putri from the Food & Beverage Service team and Maria Erlinda, who coordinates the entire Engineering team – and is the only woman in the department! Awarded based on above and beyond performance, training hours accrued, and attendance, the winners get to experience Nihi as guests.

They stay with their families in one of our villas, enjoy Nihi activities and meals, and are put in the running for Employee of the Year – where the winner receives an all-expenses paid trip to Bali!

To motivate our winners further, we will be updating this Nihi story with next month’s winners… stay tuned.
