Latest innovation from Britvic brings a full hydration wellbeing offer to micro kitchens, serving up to 10,000 drinks before restocking is needed.
Britvic has launched the Aqua Libra Flavour Tap Nano, the world’s first full-service integrated tap.
Designed for office micro kitchens, the Flavour Tap Nano keeps employees hydrated with Aqua Libra still and sparkling naturally-flavoured, sugar-free drinks (including watermelon, mango, raspberry & peach, cucumber mint & lime, and more), as well as chilled sparkling and boiling water. It also serves functional water, with electrolytes, including zinc which helps support immunity.
The Flavour Tap Nano has a similar footprint when compared to existing integrated tap systems, making it a suitable ‘all in one’ option for offices with smaller kitchens, replacing not only multiple taps, but also soft-drinks, fridges, and kettles. With sparkling soft drinks available on tap, the Flavour Tap Nano also cuts down on cost and waste, delivering 10,000 serves through its innovative cartridge system before restocking.
The launch of the Aqua Libra Flavour Tap Nano represents a significant step for Britvic’s ‘Beyond the Bottle’ initiative, which is developing innovative ways to serve high quality drinks without the need for unnecessary single-use packaging.
Speaking about the launch, Noel Dickson, Managing Director for Aqua Libra commented “Proving a full-service hydration wellbeing offer to office workers can be a headache. There are kettles that need to be descaled regularly, fridges that need to be stocked and re-stocked, and recycling management. Then there’s the cost of running all of this.
“For the first time ever, managers can now offer all of this through the Flavour Tap Nano, which brings a full wellbeing offer to micro kitchens without the usual operational complexity. The Flavour Tap Nano is a straightforward upgrade that exceeds employee expectations without additional cost or waste”.
A leading private equity firm, already has two Flavour Tap Nano’s installed in its new London office. This has led to a complete cut in all single use packaging from drinks given to staff.
Speaking about the impact of this, its UK operations manager said, “'In our recent move to Soho, we were looking to take a leap forward in both our employee wellness and sustainability.
“The tap’s seamless integration into our experience design was a key factor in choosing the Nano. We have been able to eliminate employee usage of single use drinks packaging – and a majority of those asked said they found it easier to stay hydrated with Flavour Tap”.
Aqua Libra Flavour Tap Nano specifications:
- Pure filtered still & sparkling water
- Boiling water
- Flavour-infused water
- Water with electrolytes for taste, including zinc which helps support immunity
- Single hole installation – directly replaces existing integrated tap systems
- Customer portal – track usage and stock replenishment
The Flavour Tap ‘Nano’ comes with a dedicated customer care team to manage installation and staff training, which comes as standard. All Flavour Taps are remotely managed and have predictive cartridge replacement, meaning that it will automatically order replacements when it is running low.
The patented twin-tank boiler, dry-bath-technology water cooler, and five-stage purification technology also means that with purified water, there is no build up of limescale in the taps - the most common cause of breakdowns in hot water tap systems.
