The story so far...
The story so far...
In 2007, we started zazen Water with a passion.
Our passion wasn’t just for water – it was for the transformative power of the right water. Mineralised alkaline water, as nature intended, to be exact.
To begin with, we met two of the world’s leading alkaline water scientists and sourced a top-tier water filter from Japan, and the impact it had on ourselves and our own families was nothing short of remarkable.
But we weren't satisfied keeping this life-changing water to ourselves. We couldn’t stand by while this generation of children faced the prospect of shorter lifespans – not on our watch. We set to work perfecting an alkaline water system designed for Australian and New Zealand water that we hope will address this problem and genuinely improves lives.
Our passion for water is our life’s work. We can’t wait to share it with you and your loved ones.
With gratitude and appreciation,
Janet Parker & Vanessa Drummond, Co-Founders xx
The ripple effect
The ripple effect
We are committed to making a positive difference in our world. This starts with passing our knowledge on to the next generation and ensuring our children are hydrated with clean, quality water.
The zazen Water Ambassador School Program is a social business enterprise that gives children access to zazen Alkaline Water and educates them on the benefits of proper hydration. The program is funded entirely through our business profits – so far, we’ve poured over $650,000 into this important cause, with the support of our Water Wellness community.

Over 8 years ago, I bought a zazen system at my local health store and fell in love with it. The naturopath was so passionate about water and I loved that she was using zazen in her home.

Kerry Jenkins, Sales Operations Co-Ordinator
It’s all about ‘high vibe’ healthy choices for me at work and home. We all have our own health journeys and getting the basics right is key. Motivated by the importance of structured, nutritious, life-giving water, I could not be happier to work at the heart of Operations for zazen. My role involves spinning a few different plates in multiple areas and that’s just the way I like it!
Leo Mateus, Warehouse Supervisor
As a dedicated warehouse supervisor, I oversee daily logistics, manage inventory precision, and foster a productive team environment.
My passion for water is fuelled by a commitment to health and well-being.
Gypsy Rose & her mum
This is me and mum at work, I love going to work where I get to sleep all day, except for lunch time which is my favourite! The team are all my friends, and I sometimes get to say hello to other visitors, but usually I just snore all day long! Working is exhausting!
