Latest innovation from Britvic brings a full hydration wellbeing offer to micro kitchens, serving up to 10,000 drinks before restocking is needed.
Britvic has launched the Aqua Libra Flavour Tap Nano, the world’s first full-service integrated tap. Designed for office micro kitchens, the Flavour Tap Nano keeps employees hydrated with Aqua Libra still and sparkling naturally-flavoured, sugar-free drinks (including watermelon, mango, raspberry & peach, cucumber mint & lime, and more), as well as chilled sparkling and boiling water. It also serves functional water, with electrolytes, including zinc which helps support immunity.
The Flavour Tap Nano has a similar footprint when compared to existing integrated tap systems, making it a suitable ‘all in one’ option for offices with smaller kitchens, replacing not only multiple taps, but also soft-drinks, fridges, and kettles. With sparkling soft drinks available on tap, the Flavour Tap Nano also cuts down on cost and waste, delivering 10,000 serves through its innovative cartridge system before restocking.
The launch of the Aqua Libra Flavour Tap Nano represents a significant step for Britvic’s ‘Beyond the Bottle’ initiative, which is developing innovative ways to serve high quality drinks without the need for unnecessary single-use packaging.
Speaking about the launch, Noel Dickson, Managing Director for Aqua Libra commented “Proving a full-service hydration wellbeing offer to office workers can be a headache. There are kettles that need to be descaled regularly, fridges that need to be stocked and re-stocked, and recycling management. Then there’s the cost of running all of this.
“For the first time ever, managers can now offer all of this through the Flavour Tap Nano, which brings a full wellbeing offer to micro kitchens without the usual operational complexity. The Flavour Tap Nano is a straightforward upgrade that exceeds employee expectations without additional cost or waste”.
A leading private equity firm, already has two Flavour Tap Nano’s installed in its new London office. This has led to a complete cut in all single use packaging from drinks given to staff.
Speaking about the impact of this, its UK operations manager said, “’In our recent move to Soho, we were looking to take a leap forward in both our employee wellness and sustainability.
“The tap’s seamless integration into our experience design was a key factor in choosing the Nano. We have been able to eliminate employee usage of single use drinks packaging – and a majority of those asked said they found it easier to stay hydrated with Flavour Tap”.
Aqua Libra Flavour Tap Nano specifications:
- Pure filtered still & sparkling water
- Boiling water
- Flavour-infused water
- Water with electrolytes for taste, including zinc which helps support immunity
- Single hole installation – directly replaces existing integrated tap systems
- Customer portal – track usage and stock replenishment
The Flavour Tap ‘Nano’ comes with a dedicated customer care team to manage installation and staff training, which comes as standard. All Flavour Taps are remotely managed and have predictive cartridge replacement, meaning that it will automatically order replacements when it is running low.
The patented twin-tank boiler, dry-bath-technology water cooler, and five-stage purification technology also means that with purified water, there is no build up of limescale in the taps – the most common cause of breakdowns in hot water tap systems.
The launch of Ocean Spray® Zero Sugar marks the first national brand to introduce a zero-sugar product with no artificial sweeteners in the shelf-stable juice aisle.
Ocean Spray Cranberries, Inc., the agricultural cooperative owned by roughly 700 farmer families, has announced the launch of Ocean Spray® Zero Sugar Juice Drink, the first beverage from Ocean Spray with bold flavour, 0 g of sugar, and no artificial sweeteners*.
Ocean Spray® Zero Sugar Juice Drink will be available in two flavours, Ocean Spray’s iconic Cranberry flavour and Mixed Berry, a new flavour to the brand’s beverage portfolio. Made with real fruit juice and sweetened with stevia*, Zero Sugar is an excellent source of Vitamin C.
“From full flavour blends to refreshing diet and now bold zero sugar, Ocean Spray is committed to developing product innovations that continually meet the needs and desires of consumers who are seeking out more options for their juice drink,” said Trinh Le, Vice President, Next Generation Beverages and Omni-Channel Marketing at Ocean Spray. “We’re excited to be the first brand to introduce this new innovative product in the shelf stable aisle and continue our legacy of beverage innovation.”
Ocean Spray® Zero Sugar is the latest in the brand’s developments to create more health-conscious options for today’s shoppers. Earlier this year, Ocean Spray launched another “better-for-you” juice line, which includes Immunity Cranberry Blueberry Acai, Immunity Orange Mango, and Ocean Spray® Revitalize Cranberry Pineapple Juice Drink. These function-forward beverages are made with real fruit juice, no artificial sweeteners*, and zero added sugar.
Ocean Spray® Zero Sugar Juice Drinks will be available in the US at grocery stores and Walmart in November 2023
*Contains stevia leaf extract, which has been further processed
As this year saw the rise of the sober-curiousness trend, non-alcoholic drinks such as wine waters have a great market potential, due to their natural antioxidants content and their functionality. Wine water, either still or sparkling, is promoted as healthy and naturally functional, with a distinctive wine taste. According to GlobalData’s Q3 2019 global consumer survey, 92 % of surveyed consumers consider that eating healthily creates a feeling of wellness and 60 % say they believe antioxidants have a positive impact on their health.
Ana-Maria Iscru, Consumer Analyst at GlobalData, explains: “A new water concept, wine water is different from alcoholic seltzers, non-alcoholic wine and fruit flavored waters, in that it does not contain alcohol but does have a wine-infused flavor, for a more sophisticated taste. The wine essence water from Wine Water Ltd., for instance, was released last year and has already sparked interest. The brand taps into a few consumer trends, namely the absence of alcohol, low sugar content, low calories and an elegant glass bottle packaging instead of plastic.”
Another slightly similar brand is Napa Hills, flavored water ‘with red wine’s natural antioxidants’, but without a wine flavour. PepsiCo also gave the trend a try, releasing a limited-edition rosé-flavored sparkling cola, which was served at the first edition of the BravoCon in November. Moreover, Walmart recently introduced a rosé wine drink enhancer, but it is not expected to come too close to the wine taste.
Iscru adds: “Wine waters are seen as much lower in calories and sugar than actual wine, enough to respond to the growing health & wellness demands. All of this while not ditching the classic wine taste that a lot of people love.
“The category is yet to grow, as there is not a large variety of wine waters, but it has potential in the way it is presenting itself: natural, sustainable and tasty. However, until wine water as a category grows globally, for now consumers are just left wanting more.”
