HzO, Inc., the leader in next-generation liquid and corrosion protection solutions for electronics, is working with Goal Zero to add its proprietary WaterBlock™ technology to Goal Zero’s portable power systems. The partnership potentially extends the life of Goal Zero products as HzO’s technology provides industry-leading device protection from a range of elements, including water and other corrosive liquids, and even withstanding extended submersion.
Goal Zero was founded on the premise of providing consumers with power supply products that can be used in unconventional locations. Whether on the river, at the ocean, in floods, in heavy rain, or in emergency situations at home, Goal Zero aims to make supplying power as reliable as possible. HzO’s proprietary technology expands where these products can be used, while significantly reducing the risk of corrosion and failure.
Norm Krantz, vice president of product innovation at Goal Zero stated, “Goal Zero’s customers depend on our products to provide power to mission critical devices in all sorts of adverse conditions. With WaterBlock on our power products, our customers can be assured that their Goal Zero products will produce power even after getting submersed in water. Now our customers can be powered almost anywhere.”
“Given where Goal Zero’s products are used, this relationship is a perfect fit for HzO,” says Sergio Leveratto, chief sales and marketing officer at HzO. “Not only will Goal Zero’s customers benefit from our superior liquid protection technology, but the extreme use cases will clearly show why customers rely on HzO to enable products that work anywhere.”
