Stay hydrated with stylish mains-fed and bottled water dispensers…

Finally, 2019’s hot weather has arrived. So you must remain hydrated. Did you know that 60% of the human body is made up of water? Woah, crazy, we know! To prevent dehydration, your water levels need to be topped up, so take a look at the benefits of installing a mains-fed or bottled water dispenser in your workplace. 

Let’s have a look into the benefits of water!

Individuals are advised to drink 8-10 cups of water a day which is the equivalent to around 1.5 to 2 litres. On hot days or days where you are physically exerting yourself this figure would increase, so needless to say that hydration is very important. Here are some of the benefits:

  • It helps to maximise physical performance due to an increase in energy and improved brain function. This decreases fatigue, controls body temperature and motivates you whilst carrying out your everyday activities.
  • Water can also prevent headaches; this is due to symptoms of dehydration including migraines. It is important to drink the required amount every day to relieve such symptoms.
  • Weight loss is another fantastic benefit of water. Water helps to boost your metabolic rate which is why weight loss occurs within the body. So forget the gym, just keep hydrated!

Mains-fed and bottled water coolers from Coinadrink

Coinadrink offers bottled and mains-fed dispensers (or plumbed in dispensers) and also innovative tap systems to benefit your workforce. As previously mentioned, the physical performance of individuals can be improved when they are hydrated. Therefore, having a water cooler within the working environment will encourage healthy hydration.

Bottled water dispensers are great for businesses with no mains supply. The Quartz and Mogul bottled water dispensers are ideal to keep hydrated in the workplace. Mains-fed water dispensers are connected to the mains water supply so they are ideal for high consumption. The Borg B5 and the Mogul are two mains-fed dispensers that are particularly popular. Lastly, there are also some integrated tap systems that can deliver hot, cold and boiling water at the touch of a button. Take the Borg U1, for example.

However you choose to stay hydrated, contact us today to find out more about our specialist water division and how we can tailor our services to suit your business.

The Micro Market. Promoting a healthier break time.

The Micro Market is a great alternative to vending and provides ample products etched around advanced technology. Just like vending, the Micro Market is still an ideal ‘grab-and-go’ option in the stresses and strains of today’s working world but can accommodate certain products that traditional vending cannot. So whilst vending can supply healthier items itself, the Micro Market takes healthier eating even further.

Your entire working day. Nutritiously taken care of. 

Neatly arranged on the Micro Market shelving are products that are either low fat, low sugar or low calorie. Which, seeing as we will spend around 90,000 hours of our lifetime in the workplace, is good to know.

If you’re somebody who prefers to bypass breakfast until you reach your desk, then porridge pots and fruit pots are just some of the items you can enjoy. Moreover, it also supplies bars that make you feel fuller for longer.

Snacking throughout the day needn’t be a guilty experience, either, with products such as ‘Snack ‘a’ Jacks’ ‘Ringos’ and ‘Pop Chips’ coming in at under 100 calories and protein bars providing a healthier source of energy. At dinner time you’ll have lots to choose from including a range of sandwiches under 300 calories and low-fat pasta pots and mug shots, whilst cold drinks include low or zero sugar and diet options such as Vimto, fruit juices and spring water.

All items are available in an open design, which means you can browse at your leisure prior to purchase for nutritional and calorie information. Best of all, the Micro Market is accessible 24 hours a day, which means so are your refreshments.

More than just the healthy choice…

Upon its introduction to UK shores in 2013, the Micro Market answered a lot of questions and solved a lot of problems in the workplace, and not just with healthier eating. It encouraged a more engaging break time with colleagues, meaning employees were more likely to stay on site rather than risk running over their allocated time, and also encouraged a safer and more secure break time thanks to the cashless payment terminal. And now that it promotes healthier eating as well, it’s easy to see why the Micro Market is quickly becoming the ultimate workplace refreshment solution.

You don’t need to sacrifice nutrition in the wake of convenience and you don’t need to sacrifice convenience in the wake of nutrition. The Micro Market is the master at both! Vending, of course, remains a viable alternative, but the Micro Market simply provides more for businesses that require it.

And our customers are loving it!
To see how vending can work for your workplace, contact us today. We’ll take the time to understand your requirements before providing a hassle-free quotation!

The Flavia 500. A small but mighty tabletop coffee machine.

The Flavia 500 from Lavazza is a compact coffee machine that leaves a grand impression, and its popularity cannot be questioned. With the strenuous demands of today’s working world, many offices crave refreshments that are quick, simple yet enriched with quality. And the Flavia 500 duly obliges.

An office coffee machine that priorities quality and simplicity.

A worthy replacement to the Flavia 400, the 500 builds on what made the brand a solid choice in the industry. A 25-strong drinks menu includes big brands such as Yorkshire Tea and Galaxy Hot Chocolate, and the Flavia utilises self-serve pouches that maximise both quality and hygiene. Simply make your selection on the machine and pop in the appropriate sachet. You can even mix two separate sachets should you want a frothy coffee! The Flavia then takes care of the rest, with a 40 second dispense time.

The Flavia 500 is a low maintenance coffee machine that can either be hand filled or plumbed in, meaning it expertly slots around your busy schedule. Its smart design does enough to catch the eye and this can be further enhanced should you opt for the dedicated cabinet and merchandiser (which stores the sachets and sundries in a neat design). It’s certainly easy to see why the Flavia has such a loyal following.

Try it for yourself at the Midlands Business Network Expo!

You may have seen on our blog and social media platforms that we will be attending the Midlands Business Network Expo on Thursday 4th July. And we will be bringing the Flavia 500! This provides a great opportunity for you to see and sample it for yourself, whilst having a chat to see how a vending machine can work for your business. Learn why we’ve been in business for as long as we have, and exactly what it is that sets us apart from the competition…

Attending the expo is completely free and it takes just 2 minutes to book your place, so don’t delay! Come and see us on stand 6 and allow us to improve the productivity and wellbeing of your workforce.

Keep reading…

  • The world’s largest chocolate bar weighs 5,792 kg (12,770 lb).

Join us at the Midlands Business Network Exhibition on July 4th!

No sooner has our last exhibition finished, we are now gearing up for our next one! Thursday 4th July will see Coinadrink at Villa Park between 10am and 2pm on stand 20, showcasing the benefits of workplace refreshments alongside 100 other exhibitors and over 1000 visitors from across the West Midlands!

The importance of workplace refreshments.

Don’t miss out on your free chance to learn the ease in which vending can improve your workplace, at an exhibition organised by the Midlands Business Network. We have been specialists in understanding the importance of workplace refreshments since 1962, which gives us 57 years’ experience in forging a respected reputation across the region. As numerous blog posts of ours explain, quality workplace refreshments ensure your workplace is an environment that your staff are happy to work in. They help attract and retain star employees, and show your employees that you care about their wellbeing. And Coinadrink make them so simple!

We pride ourselves on taking the time to understand your unique requirements, taking into account the industry, size and location of your business, number of staff and shift patterns to name just a few. We then tailor our services to suit, from our practical instant tabletop hot drinks machines right up to our fresh milk and fresh bean coffee machines.

Details on the Midlands Business Network Expo!Will we see you at the exhibition?

Make sure you stop by on stand 20 at the exhibition to learn more, for a chat that can be as informal as you wish. There will of course be a tabletop hot drinks machine that you can enjoy a coffee from, and our experienced and knowledgeable sales team would love to see you. A better workplace doesn’t have to be complex. It could all start for your business on Thursday 4thJuly, so what do you have to lose?
