Appliance manufacturer Elkay has expanded its Smartwell water dispenser range by releasing a new touchless counter-top model in the US.
Elkay’s Smartwell range already includes a floor-standing model, but the new touch-free counter-top model aims to provide a hygienic and sustainable dispensing option that is suitable for a range of facilities.
The touch-free model allows users to dispense drinks, create custom beverages and view nutritional information through a mobile app, without having to touch the unit itself; though it can also be operated through its touch-screen.
The counter-top dispenser is capable of dispensing more than 70 custom beverage options, as the unit can hold up to four fruit flavours at once (from a selection of ten options), including raspberry, lemon and peach, as well as natural sweeteners and functional enhancements such as vitamin C, electrolytes and caffeine.
According to Elkay, the counter-top model is designed to fit under standard kitchenette cabinets, making it a suitable solution for workplaces and facilities of all sizes.
Arti Lyde, general manager, Smartwell at Elkay said: “The new counter-top version of Smartwell helps us offer more customisation options for all office and facility sizes and consumption needs.
“As we begin to transition back to the office, people are looking for safe and thoughtful products such as the Smartwell Countertop, that offers the right solution when it comes to hygiene, sustainability and cost savings – all while bringing fun, flavour and healthy hydration.”
