Smart water dispensers for functional, plastic-free hydration. MoreLess

Aquablu is a Dutch water technology company that creates smart, sustainable water dispensers for offices, hotels, retail spaces, and other commercial environments. Founded in 2018, the company’s mission is to eliminate single-use plastic bottles by making tap water safer, healthier, and more appealing. Their main product, the REFILL+ system, filters and purifies regular tap water, removing harmful substances like chlorine, PFAS, and microplastics. Users can then customize their drinks with options like still, chilled, or sparkling water, and even choose from natural flavors enriched with vitamins, caffeine, or electrolytes.

The system is fully connected, offering real-time tracking of usage, environmental impact, and nutritional data through an online dashboard. Businesses can monitor refill rates, CO₂ savings, and reduce service visits thanks to remote diagnostics. Aquablu’s dispensers are designed to be both user-friendly and energy-efficient, supporting a more sustainable drinking water experience.

With a growing presence across Europe, Aquablu partners with companies looking to reduce their environmental footprint and promote healthier hydration in the workplace. The company’s long-term goal is to save one billion plastic bottles by 2030, offering a cleaner, smarter, and more responsible alternative to bottled drinks.
