THE WELL WATER "Our design team's extensive research found several issues with


traditional water dispensers, from hygiene, user experience, and sustainability, to re-ordering and storage of water," says The Well Water's CEO David Albers. "Taking a holistic approach, we've used these insights to improve every aspect of water dispensing. "The core innovation is the move from bottles to boxes. It sounds


like a small step but it's truly revolutionary in the Home Office Delivered (HOD) market space. By moving away from plastic bottled water, the whole ‘game' changes. No longer is a home or office cooler provided mainly by ‘specialist' water providers who need fleets of purpose-build vans, trucks, racks and sanitising personnel in the never-ending attempt to keep dispensers in a sanitary condition. "Boxed water dramatically improves storage, enabling bigger and


more profitable deliveries. Manual handling issues are a thing of the past, and the latest in low-impact refrigeration is leading the way in moving away from older ozone-depleting technologies. Critically the cloud connectivity and built-in intelligence of the machines allow for smart distribution and demand-led delivery (as against just pre- scheduled route delivery). The net impact is a solution that is set to transform the water cooler market." The stylish, black unit is split into two parts: the top section is the


cooler; and the bottom section provides storage with the connected weighing platform. The top section can be used alone as a counter- top dispenser. This modular thinking has allowed for a countertop version for premises that don't have the space available for a freestanding machine. An illuminated front screen can be customised with a message or customer logo. "Every box has its own tap, guaranteeing clean and


uncontaminated water with every pour, with no water left to stagnate in the chambers of the machine," says David Albers. "An innovative new mechanism has been designed and engineered to ensure the machine never touches the water, making the passage from box to cup more hygienic than traditional coolers. "Boxed water is lighter than traditional bottles, and the packaging


is rectangular rather than cylindrical, making it far easier and more efficient to store and transport. Goods inwards storage areas are cut by over 80% and goods outwards by over 33.33%, while truck movements for equivalent quantities of water are reduced by over 60%. The lighter boxes also reduce any ergonomic risks to employees and, when empty, the boxes can be folded and entered straight into recycling streams."


Benefits for Vending operators


The Well Water delivers the most cost-effective hydration solution for vending operators, removing the need for servicing and sanitisation and improving security by reducing the number of visits to premises required by water delivery, servicing, and sanitisation technicians by 65%.


"The crazy thing is that our system provided complete peace of


mind in regard to the hygienic state of the dispensers - and yet completely does away with the requirements for staff being employed for sanitisation," says Kieran McKenna. "We call it ‘Purity by design'." The Well Water does not require servicing or sanitisation as the


box never touches the dispenser, never sees the light and never has any contaminated office air bubbling up to equalise pressure. Once the box is empty, it can simply be recycled, further reducing manpower, cost and inconvenience. "The Well Water removes the need for the storage and use of


cleaning chemicals to deliver safe hydration in premises," says Kieran McKenna. "The Well Water just makes sense on a practical, hygienic, environmental cost and convenience level." The hassle of constantly ordering new bottles is avoided with the


use of smart technology. David Albers explains: "Once you're low on water, new boxes are dispatched and delivered, so you never run out. This saves admin staff time in organizing new deliveries and means there will be a constant flow of water in the workplace. "The Well Water is an innovative, rebel solution which is set to


disrupt the water cooler market by meeting modern standards of hygiene, flexibility and overall product experience."
