Bluewater, a global leader in advanced water purification and beverage solutions, is set to unveil its groundbreaking Restaurant Station for the Horeca (Hotel, Restaurant, Café) sector at the 2024 Hotel and Innovation Expo. This event is being held at London’s iconic Excel venue from October 15 to 16, focusing on addressing the evolving demands of modern hoteliers.
Transforming Water Service in Hospitality
Visitors are invited to witness live demonstrations of the cutting-edge Bluewater Restaurant Station, debuting in the UK, at Booth M42. This state-of-the-art system is designed to improve operational efficiency and profitability for restaurants, while also eliminating the reliance on single-use plastic bottles.
As the hospitality industry faces increasing challenges to cut costs, enhance customer experiences, and implement sustainable practices, the Bluewater Restaurant Station offers a timely and effective solution. By providing a convenient alternative to bottled water, the system significantly lowers expenses related to water procurement and waste management, allowing businesses to focus resources on more critical areas.
Advanced Technology for Optimal Hydration
The compact, under-sink Bluewater Spirit purifier, which has won numerous awards for its outstanding performance and quality, purifies tap water by removing up to 99.7 percent of harmful chemicals, including PFAS. The Bluewater Restaurant Station provides both still and sparkling water, served chilled or at ambient temperature, making it an essential addition to any dining venue.
Central to this remarkable system is Bluewater’s proprietary Liquid Rock® technology, a unique blend of Swedish minerals meticulously formulated to ensure balanced hydration and an exceptionally refreshing taste.
Liquid Rock® is a pioneering product that expertly maintains an ideal mineral ratio, with twice as much calcium as magnesium, optimised for maximum absorption by the body. This thoughtful design not only enhances the taste of the water but also delivers vital nutrients that promote health and well-being, ensuring guests enjoy the highest quality hydration.
Addressing Hard Water Challenges
In addition to its health advantages, Liquid Rock® addresses a common issue faced by many UK restaurants: hard water. By eliminating scaling on utensils and glassware, the Bluewater Restaurant Station allows establishments to maintain a spotless appearance without the need for harsh chemical cleaners. This enhancement elevates the overall dining experience for guests while decreasing maintenance expenses for operators. The system enables restaurants and bars to fine-tune their mineral content precisely, providing complete control over the water’s taste and health benefits. With three mineralisation levels—light, medium, or bold operators can select the flavour profile that best suits their needs.
Insights from the CEO
“At Bluewater, we believe that access to clean, delicious water is essential for both guests and restaurants,” stated Bengt Rittri, founder and CEO of Bluewater. The Bluewater Restaurant Station represents a groundbreaking advancement, enabling restaurants to provide superior hydration while simultaneously lowering operational expenses. We’re thrilled to showcase how our cutting-edge technology can redefine the approach to water service in the hospitality sector.”
