Are Businesses Socially Responsible when it comes to Water?

We're all aware of the health benefits of drinking water and for businesses there is a social responsibility to make it easily accessible for customers and clients.

Water plays an essential role in maintaining a healthy body and regulating PH balance, body temperature and metabolism; as well as clearing skin and helping avoid the negative side effects of dehydration.

Good daily hydration plays an important role in reducing the symptoms of dehydration, such as headaches, tiredness and lack of concentration. But are businesses doing enough to provide fresh, quality water?

Many industries such as HoReCa or establishments like leisure centres and care homes rely on supplying water to their customers, yet fresh, filtered water is still seen as an expensive luxury. There's nothing more underwhelming or unappealing than being served lukewarm, chlorinated tap water, while bottled water is often viewed as an expensive luxury.

Having a ready-made, constant water supply for customers to enjoy is key in reminding people of the necessity to keep hydrated and alert.

Eau de Vie's fresh filtered water system from Classeq offers a simple solution. The onsite system filters and chills mains water, providing great tasting still and sparkling water. It provides water that people want to drink and the quality of the water makes it irresistibly easy to fill your glass. Having a constant supply of quality water and making it readily available is key to keeping people hydrated and avoiding the negative side effects of dehydration.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF WATER

Water has an important role to play in maintaining a healthy body. Key benefits of drinking water include:

• Natural Remedy for Headaches: Helps to relieve headache and back pains due to dehydration. Although many reasons contribute to headache, dehydration is the common one.
• Better Productivity at Work: Your brain is mostly made up of water, thus drinking water helps you think better, be more alert and concentrate.
• Maintaining PH Balance
• Maintaining body temperature
• Breathing: Water plays its role in distributing oxygen all over the human body while collecting the carbon dioxide from all these parts by dissolving these gases.
• Skin Tone: A number of skin problems can be prevented by taking adequate amount of water.
• Good Mood: Your body feels very good and that's why you feel happy.
• Healthy Body and general sense of Wellbeing

The Eau de Vie system also allows users to bottle and brand their own water, enabling businesses a further benefit - to charge a premium for the water. The special SilverSix filter removes the impurities from the mains water that adversely affects flavour, smell and taste.
