Dripl Case: Center Parcs Vossemeren
Meet Center Parcs Vossemeren ❤️
Sector: hospitality & recreation
Number of employees: 700
Location(s): Vossemeren in Lommel
Employer mission: Bringing people closer to nature and each other in the workplace
Center Parcs is all about experience: forests, cottages, slides and moments of rest. But behind the scenes, teams also help build that experience every day. And whether you work in housekeeping, in the Aqua Mundo or in the technical department, staying well hydrated is just as important as being well rested.
Since 2023, Center Parcs has been doing it their own way: with 8 Refill Points spread across three parks. Fresh, circular and surprisingly popular!
From water bottle hunt to water attraction
Hydrating in the park used to look like an episode of Expedition Robinson. Employees searched for water points or improvised with bottles that ended up in overflowing PMD bags.
"Some tried to quench their thirst with sips from the kiddie pool (don't try this at home)."
Today, that's a thing of the past. With Refill Points in strategic locations, colleagues simply fill their own bottle!
The start? Refreshingly surprising
A little skeptical, a little curious: that was the beginning.
Some colleagues thought they were dealing with futuristic coffee machines. Others still missed their soda cans a bit, but that feeling quickly disappeared.
"Once they realized it was just smart, sustainable AND thirst-quenching ... it ran like wildfire!"
Since then, the "water attraction" (that's what the Refill Point is called internally 🤭) has been a staple of the workplace.
Water bottles as a new work outfit
Employees wear their reusable bottle almost like a badge of honor, and a quick refill has now become a social moment.
"Everyone is now walking around with fancy drinking bottles as if we were participating in a fashion show 'hydration edition,'" he said.
In addition to less waste, the system also creates small breaks in the workday, and those are golden.
The impact in figures

Why Center Parcs Vossemeren chose Dripl
Center Parcs has been committed to a close relationship with nature for years, and this applies not only to their guests, but also to their internal employees. The choice of Dripl came from a clear ambition: to reduce the park's ecological footprint without sacrificing employee comfort or experience.
"We wanted to get rid of the endless stream of plastic bottles, but at the same time offer something that really works and sticks."
The Dripl Refill Points fit the bill perfectly. They make sustainable behavior accessible, encourage employees to drink more healthily and create a new habit that really lives within the team.
Also ready for a fresh routine?
At Center Parcs, Dripl is more than an appliance, it is a mini-momentum in the day that makes health and sustainability visible.
