Why hydration matters at work
In the workplace, hydration isn't just about health - it's about performance. Studies show that even mild dehydration can affect concentration, mood, and memory.
For employers, that means reduced productivity and a potential decrease in employee engagement.
How much water should we be drinking?
The NHS recommends we drink 1.9 litres of water each day to maintain a healthy fluid balance. Yet research shows many are still falling short.
Our mission to improve workplace hydration
As experts in all things hydration, we're on a mission to get people drinking more water - to improve their health, happiness, and sense of wellbeing.
That's why we created Zip Water's Ultimate Guide to Hydration.
How to encourage better hydration at work
A hydrated workforce is a healthier one - and when people feel better, they perform better. Any kind of water will hydrate you, but taste matters.
In one study, just 23% of people said they loved the taste of water, while 80% said they usually chose something else. Discover practical ways to help keep your team hydrated below.
How taste and filtration affect hydration
People often ask whether filtration affects hydration. While filtered water doesn't hydrate you more than unfiltered water, the improved taste and mouthfeel encourage people to drink more - and that makes a difference.
Zip Water's taste test
Proof in every sip
We took to the streets of London to put this to the test, offering two samples - one from a standard tap, and one from a Zip HydroTap:
• 92% preferred our chilled, filtered water to ordinary tap water
• 89% said they would drink more if they had access to filtered drinking water
Experience pure-tasting water
Our 0.2-micron, 8-in-1 MicroPurity filtration technology is certified to reduce the eight most harmful contaminants in drinking water, improving its taste, smell, and appearance:
• Chlorine taste and odour
• Sediment
• Lead
• Limescale
• Bacteria growth
• Microplastics
• PFAS
