Pune: Pocari Sweat, the globally trusted ION Supply Drink, has launched its \u2018\u2018Hydration for City Heroes\u2019 campaign in Pune with a focused on-ground hydration drive at the DCP Traffic Office, Pune \u2013 2, Sadhu Vaswani Road, Camp. The initiative saw participation from over 40 traffic police personnel, recognising and supporting those who work tirelessly under the harsh sun to keep the city moving.<\/div>\n
Pune, known for its significant summer heat and high dependence on two-wheelers, presents unique challenges when it comes to heat exposure and dehydration. With many commuters directly exposed to the sun and traffic personnel managing dense vehicular movement in extreme weather conditions, the city emerged as a meaningful starting point for this campaign.<\/div>\n
Through the \u2018\u2018Hydration for City Heroes\u2019 campaign, Pocari Sweat aims to build awareness around the often-overlooked risks of dehydration, especially in dry heat conditions. The initiative underscores a powerful message, hydration is not a choice, but a daily necessity, particularly for outdoor professionals who face prolonged exposure to heat and physical strain.<\/div>\n
As part of the drive, over 3,000++ bottles of Pocari Sweat were distributed among traffic police personnel to help them stay hydrated during their demanding shifts. The initiative also served as a gesture of appreciation towards civic workers, acknowledging their resilience, commitment, and essential role in maintaining public safety and city operations.<\/div>\n
Quote from Pocari Sweat Spokesperson said “With the \u2018\u2018Hydration for City Heroes\u2019\u2019 campaign, we wanted to go beyond messaging and create real impact on the ground. Pune, with its rising temperatures and high outdoor exposure, was a natural choice to begin this initiative. Traffic police personnel are among the most exposed to the effects of heat and dehydration, and this effort is our way of supporting their well-being while also raising broader awareness. At Pocari Sweat, we strongly believe that hydration is fundamental to everyday health, and through such initiatives, we hope to encourage people to adopt smarter hydration habits.”<\/div>\n

Quote from DCP Traffic Office Representative: “Our traffic personnel spend long hours on the roads, often in extreme heat, ensuring the smooth flow of the city. Staying hydrated is critical not just for their health, but also for maintaining alertness and performance on duty. We appreciate initiatives like the \u2018\u2018Hydration for City Heroes\u2019 campaign by Pocari Sweat, which not only supports our teams on ground but also helps raise awareness about the importance of hydration among the larger public.”<\/div>\n
We will continue to pursue initiatives we can undertake to support people who remain active while facing the risk of dehydration.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
