Brand Origin – The Meaning of “HINADA”
The name HINADA derives from the Chinese idiom “Hai Na Bai Chuan” (海纳百川) – “the ocean admits all rivers,” symbolizing inclusiveness, tolerance, and the capacity to receive and transform. Each syllable embodies a core value:
| Syllable | Chinese Character | Meaning | Brand Promise |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hi (Hai) | 海 | Ocean | Expansive vision, embracing global innovation |
| Na | 纳 | To Receive | Core membrane technology – receiving polluted water for rebirth |
| Da | 大 | Greatness | Boundless love – delivering clean water worldwide |
Just as the ocean embraces every stream, HINADA welcomes every drop of contaminated water and restores it to purity through advanced membrane filtration technology.
Mission Statement: “Water is life, treat it right.”
Founder’s Journey – A Mission Born in Africa
The HINADA story began not in a laboratory, but in the water-scarce regions of Africa and other developing nations.
Mr. Jeff Ouyang, founder of HINADA, spent two years working across Nigeria and South Africa, and traveled to more than 20 developing countries – including Uganda, Ethiopia, Cameroon, South Sudan, India, Mauritius, Mongolia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand. What he witnessed was profound:
-
According to United Nations data, less than half of Africa’s population has access to safely managed drinking water.
-
Over 400 million people in Africa lack basic drinking water services.
-
More than 700 million lack adequate sanitation facilities.
-
In many regions, families walk miles daily for murky, unsafe water; in urban slums, a single bottle of clean water can cost half a day’s wage.
“Water treatment is not a business. It is a responsibility.” – Jeff Ouyang
This conviction shaped HINADA’s defining mission: “Water is life, treat it right.”
