Four Elements Symbolism
The ancients believed everything in nature is composed of 4 essential elements – Water, Air, Fire and Earth.
These elements were considered the critical energy forces that sustained life and created to bring balance. We can currently say that our planet is in a state of chaos with regards to climate change and steps are required urgently to achieve the balance it needs.
Putting the first letters of these elements together produces WAFE, which we believe embodies our mission and vision.
At WAFE, our planet comes first, and through our brand, we hope to bring back the much-needed balance our planet needs - using renewable and sustainable materials to create our everyday household products.
