In a bid to save money, as well as do their bit for the environment, Manchester City Council have invested in plumbed in water cooler installations in town halls, which will replace the bottled water supplies that are currently in place. Not only this, but sterilising units have also been installed, allowing the authority’s catering arm Manchester Fayre to hygienically refill bottles with tap water for use in board meetings and the like. Some bottles are still in circulation, however, as several of the council’s buildings do not allow plumbed in water cooler set-up, owing to the make up of their structures. Since this has been done, spending has been reduced to £26, 500 on water in 2009, with hopes that the cost will be slashed in half again for 2010.If you’re curious as to how much money your business could save with a plumbed in water cooler, and about how much you’ll be helping the environment by cutting down on the amount of waste plastic you produce, please do get in touch, and one of The Water Cooler Company team will be on hand to help.
