The Environment and Us

We appreciate that our water cooler business has a direct effect on the local, regional and global environment. We are therefore committed to continuously improving our own environmental performance and preventing pollution.

Did you know?
  • Nearly 3million tonnes of plastic are used annually for water bottles
  • Only about 10% of plastic bottles are re-cycled; most go to landfill sites & can take over 400 years to degrade
  • Many water experts think tap water is of a better quality than bottled water, with a balanced mineral content and a lower risk of contamination.
  • Transporting water produces more than 30million tonnes of CO2 every year!
What are we doing about it?
  • We minimise waste of all types wherever we can.
  • We recycle all office paper, waste paper, toner cartridges & packaging stuff
  • Our vehicles will use bio-diesel wherever possible & for as long as we all agree it’s better environmentally than normal diesel.
  • We support the Save A Cup plastic cup-recycling scheme & so should you.
  • We use electronic communication whenever possible to save paper.
  • We plan to run on electricity from renewable sources provided by Ecotricity.
  • We are working towards the very tough ISO14001 environmental accreditation.
  • All offices & warehouses will be fitted with light sensors that ensure lights are used only when they are actually needed.
  • We have Hippo minimum flush devices in all our toilets
  • 50% of money raised through recycling paper is passed onto a local young people’s environmental group.
