Aqua Blu Sustainability Actions

Smart dispensers replace bottles

Aqua Blu sells water dispensers that are meant to cut down on single-use bottles in offices and hotels. The system filters tap water and offers still, sparkling, chilled, and hot drinks, plus flavored options. The company says this can reduce waste, lower the need for deliveries and storage, and make hydration easier for staff. It also says the machines use local tap water, which can reduce the need to move bottled drinks around.

Tracks plastic and CO2 savings

Aqua Blu says its connected system gives customers monthly impact reports. These reports show how many plastic bottles were avoided and how much CO2 was saved. CO2, or carbon dioxide, is a greenhouse gas linked to climate change. The company also says customers can use this data in ESG reporting, which means reporting on environmental, social, and governance issues. This makes the product more than a water machine; it also acts as a tracking tool for sustainability claims.

Filters out contaminants

The brand says its dispensers filter out bacteria, contaminants, chlorine, PFAS, and microplastics. PFAS are long-lasting man-made chemicals that can build up in water and the environment. Aqua Blu presents this as a way to improve water quality while still using tap water instead of bottled drinks. The company also says the system adds minerals, vitamins, and sometimes caffeine to some drinks, which it frames as a workplace wellness feature.

Expanded through Selecta

In 2023, Aqua Blu announced a strategic partnership with Selecta, a European food and beverage services company. The deal was described as a way to roll out Aqua Blu’s Refill product line in 16 European countries. The company said the partnership would help it reach more business customers and support its goal of saving 1 billion plastic bottles by 2030. The announcement also said the partnership would help reduce travel for maintenance visits, which could lower emissions.
