Technology and water consumption: back to work in even better health

Water coolers. News 11/11/2022
The end of the coronavirus pandemic has come hand-in-hand with a return to face-to-face work. After months where working from home with little office attendance was very common, the traditional day at the physical office has come back to Spanish companies, among other things, thanks to the adjustments made by the different offices to maintain and improve security measures. One of these is access to drinking water for workers.

A few months ago, the Government presented the new Law on Waste and Contaminating Soils for a Circular Economy, which promoted the consumption of free drinking water in various establishments. While in bars and restaurants water should be served free of charge to those who request it, companies and facilities should also ensure access to this precious commodity in order to reduce the environmental impact. And, with the advent of technology, it is becoming easier for numerous companies to implement these recommendations.

Drinking water fountains and water coolers have become more visible in recent months, particularly due to the incorporation of technological aspects in their designs. Canaletas, a Catalan company with more than 55 years of experience in the manufacture of water dispensers, is a clear example of how to improve a typical product with the implementation of technology, developing a perfect design to combine access to drinking water and health and safety among workers. This is an increasingly important aspect in the workplace.

The Catalan company has so-called hands-free water fountains. This product allows you to fill plastic or glass bottles, promoting the reuse of containers, and also achieves this without having to touch the drinking fountain. This detail may seem trivial, but it increases health by reducing potential contact with people who want to use the water dispenser.

This hands-free solution features a stainless-steel design and dispenses water in two ways: by stepping on a foot pedal or, by using technology, through a sensor. In this manner, the water is protected at all times, so when the mechanism is activated, it does not touch the walls of the water cooler either. In addition, it allows a purifying filter to be installed, managing to improve the quality of water.

In this manner, offices promote the consumption of quality drinking water among their workers. This also reduces the purchase of plastics and promotes the reuse of all types of packaging, improving both people's health and the environmental impact of work. And, as if that were not enough, it maintains a healthy environment, something which, after the coronavirus pandemic, has become even more important.
