Help cut single-use plastic pollution.
Protect our planet. Refill not landfill.
Did you know?
We need to stop the rising tide of plastic pollution in our oceans. Water bottles make up around half of all plastic bottles. To reduce the 7.7 billion plastic water bottles used in the UK each year, drink what you want, when you want, whenever you want with a reusable water bottle, and you can make a huge difference. Chilled and filtered water from our plumbed in hydrations stations tastes just great.
We have always been known for our love of tea, but in the past decade we have also become a nation of coffee lovers! Over 2.5 billion disposable coffee cups are thrown away every year, and just 1 in 400 are recycled in the UK. Plus nearly half of the bottles we use are not recycled, with more than 15 million littered, landfilled or incinerated every day. Plastic bottles comprise one third of all plastic pollution in the sea and there are now over 159 plastic bottles for every mile of beach in the UK.
Blue Planet II and the 'David Attenborough effect' has led to a positive and staggering 53% drop in single-use plastic in one year but this is just the start! Increased consumer awareness shows we are becoming more considerate and wanting to be less wasteful in order to protect our environment. The shocking images of dead wildlife killed by plastic makes shocking headlines as the impact on our marine life and oceans becomes catastrophic. Reports show that 100,000 marine mammals and turtles and 1 million sea birds are killed by plastic pollution every year!
One plastic water bottle. 450 years to decompose.
Where do we come in?
Plumbed in water coolers and drinking water fountains are a great way to conveniently get filtered water whilst reducing the number of single use water bottles you use. Be sure to use a re-usable bottle, glass or mug.
More and more gyms, reception areas, foyers and offices are installing plumbed in (mains fed) water coolers where you refill your glass or sports bottle, recycle and reuse. More environmentally friendy than bottled coolers and chilled and filtered water tastes great too.
We're already working with some pretty exciting clients, including Barclays, Nationwide, BSkyB and David Lloyd Clubs.
Together we can tackle plastic pollution with a refill solution!
“One way to reduce plastic pollution is to stop using single-use plastic bottles and refill re-usable sports bottles or cups to keep. We need to take care of our planet because plastic that pollutes our oceans and waterways has severe impacts on the health of our environment and our economy.”
