Quench USA: Solution to the Office “Water Cooler” Conundrum

Plastic pollution increasing by land and by sea. Barrels of oil wasted.  BPA. High transportation costs. False advertising. Low regulations. Money wasted.

Bottled water has a stigma these days. And sitting around the office “water cooler” (or perhaps ‘larger caskets of bottled water’) doesn’t have the same pizzazz that it used to, eh?

We already know that plastic water bottles don’t make sense financially or sustainably. We bring our own stainless steel water bottles to fill up, but working for 8 hours a day leads to an inevitable refill or two. Those large plastic jugs you’re filling up with at work or the gym are still made of plastic, and therefore have the same green consequences as those single-sized bottled waters.

A business based in King of Prussia, Quench USA, recognized this environmental conundrum of the ‘larger’ water bottles and came up with a better solution. Quench is a clean-technology company that rents and services filtered, bottle-less water coolers to fit your existing tap water.

Quench is easy for any business; they tailor your water cooler according to your business’s needs. The filtered water coolers use purification technologies to remove bacteria, viruses, parasites, toxins & bad taste with a 5-stage carbon filtration. Their vehicle fleet for delivering & servicing water coolers has completed offset their carbon footprint with their Versus Carbon Neutral partnership. Overall, filtering in-house with the cooler (vs the bottles) saves enough greenhouse gases equivalent to planting up to 120 trees or dumping 70 million pounds of plastic waste to landfills each year. This is great for companies in corporate parks or in center city where planting trees isn’t possible.

Quench is perfect for offices, hospitals, gyms, college settings, hospitals and many other corporate settings. I was psyched to see my office even converted to their systems! (The ‘hot’ water option gives you steaming H2O instantly for that mid-afternoon chai tea refresher!) Have a friend or entrepreneur cousin across state lines? Although this genius company is home to Philadelphia, they service over 25,000 businesses across the USA.
