Vending & soft drinks

Reliable vending starts with the right water. We help vending operators, manufacturers and service providers tackle scale, protect valuable equipment and maintain consistent drink quality - with water treatment solutions tailored to the equipment, application and incoming water supply.

Consistent, high-quality taste for vending.

Hard water can have a serious impact on the quality of your drinks, causing a metallic or dull taste, poor odour and a scum layer on the surface of hot drinks. Water hardness doesn’t just impact the customer experience – it reduces the lifespan of your machinery, leading to the build-up of limescale in soft drink dispensers, coffee vending machines and more.

WaterCare’s filtration range of vending machines and drinks dispensers are designed to eliminate calcium and magnesium in water, helping you to maintain consistency, reduce downtime, and improve drink satisfaction.

Consistent taste across the county.

What is a vending machine water filter?

A vending machine water filter purifies tap water before it reaches your hot drink dispensers, coffee brewers or water vending machines. By removing minerals and contaminants, it helps you deliver consistently great-tasting drinks while preventing limescale build-up that leads to costly breakdowns.
