What is driving the Water Cooler Market in the UK? According to the British Water Cooler Association (BWCA), point of use or mains-fed water coolers (POU) hold the majority share of the market in the UK compared to bottled water coolers.
The water cooler market on the UK has increased, with higher sales expected this year as the UK realises that drinking water is vital to one’s health and the volume of consumption increases as the weather gets hotter.
What is driving the Water Cooler Market in the UK?
According to a blog post done after the 2015 BWCA Annual Conference, there has been an 8% growth in the water cooler market, with bottled water coolers gaining against mains water coolers for the first time.
The water cooler market in the UK now consists of in excess of 68 000 water coolers. The UK, at 24% of the total, is the largest single water cooler market in Europe. This is seen as being due to a trend towards health and wellbeing, the growth of the start-up business market, the recovery of the economy, and currency fluctuations.
Bottled Water Coolers tend to be a better idea for small and start-up businesses, which may account for the growth in bottled water cooler sales.
Living-Water, an accredited member of the BWCA, knows the importance of providing great service as well as hygienic water coolers, and adheres strictly to the stringent Health and Safety requirements of the Association and offers top-of-the-range bottled water coolers and mains-fed water coolers.
Larger businesses still prefer plumbed-in water coolers due to the large staff complement they have, and the fact that a mains water cooler can provide chilled water virtually non-stop 24/7. With upmarket models like the Living-Water Executive POU, keeping the cooler sanitised is a cinch, and the interchangeable side panels mean that the water coolers can be liveried in corporate colours.
The Living-Water Fountain water cooler is a great choice for larger premises that have a high pedestrian flow that requires a constant supply of water such as construction sites, factories, sports complexes, and schools. The range of available taps allows for all kinds of supply, including filling plastic water cups or water bottles for drinking later.
No matter what type of water cooler you need, or even if you are looking for a hot water boiler, you are sure to find what you are looking for at Living-Water, with the added guarantee that this BWCA member provides excellent service and only the best water, equipment, and water cooler accessories.
