Dripl Drink

Meet one of the world's least sustainable industries

Disposable swings the baton

44% of all plastic produced in the world is used for disposable packaging. These are containers that only last one time, sometimes only a few minutes.
Trucks

Trucks full of water

Did you know that soft drinks mainly consist of over 80% water? It's astonishing to think that thousands of trucks transport mostly water every day, when tap water is readily accessible everywhere. Quite bizzare, isn't it?

Sugar and unhealthy additives

The majority of soft drinks are still primarily composed of sugar, with an average of 8 sugar cubes in a single can. This is especially concerning considering that over half of the European population struggles with obesity.
Reality check

Soft drink industry, we need to talk

It can also be done differently.

Decentralised

What if every water connection became a mini soft drink factory? A decentralised network eliminates unnecessary transportation costs and emissions.

Packing Free

What if you could tap refreshing drinks right into your reusable cup? Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. Yep, with the emphasis on the first.

Healthy

Who says a nice refreshing drink has to be unhealthy? No way, José.

And whether it can be done differently

The secret price of soft drinks

On average, a bottle of soft drink costs €1.80. It seems affordable, but the real price is much higher: mountains of waste, excessive carbon emissions, and loads of sugar. Insert the Dripl Refillution. The solution based on decentralisation, reuse and health.

A BAD REPORT CARD

Figures with serious impact

1.3 billion

packaging units end up as waste every day—a pile as high as the Eiffel Tower.

51%

of PMD waste is never recycled.

190

kilotons of CO₂e emissions are produced every year—because soft drinks are 90% made out of tap water.

This is equivalent to the emissions of  22,000 Belgian households

The solution? Simple!

Enter the Refillution.

The Refillution is turning the soft drink industry upside down. We’re introducing a new way to hydrate
where health and reuse are the norm.

Decentralisation

What if every water connection became a mini soft drink factory? A decentralised network eliminates unnecessary transportation costs and emissions.

Reuse

A reusable bottle should be the default. Not just for water, but for all drinks. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. (With a strong focus on that first step.)

Healthy

Gone are the days of sugary, additive-filled drinks. A refreshing drink should be healthy by default—not just water, but better.

Are you considering a transition to reuse?

Annually, your office could save x number of packages.

That is, x kg CO2e.

You can compare this to charging your smartphone x number of times.
Or x number of full PMD bags.

LAUNCHING A REFILLUTION

The story behind Dripl

Group photo Dripl team

When co-founders Colin and Lucas were looking for a refreshing drink on their university campus, their only option was a classic vending machine filled with disposable soft drinks. While water bottles can be refilled anywhere, soft drinks were still stuck in single-use packaging. There had to be a better way. And so, Dripl was born.

300+ companies are already participating in Refillution
