We distill complex challenges related to safe, enjoyable drinking water down into intuitive programs that fit any space. We do the heavy lifting so you don’t have to, because we know that there a million competing priorities in your business. Leave the water part to us!

Our Foundations

At its core, Vivreau is about sustainability, in every sense of that term, including environmental stewardship, human health and wellness, positive social change, and financial responsibility. Vivreau clients employ our systems to meet a variety of important objectives, oftentimes checking numerous boxes at once through the adoption of an integrated water solution.

‘Environmental Sustainability

Vivreau has been at the forefront of innovation in water sustainability for more than 30 years. Replacing traditional bottled water with Vivreau on-site bottling systems, reusable glass bottles, and Vi Taps has helped hundreds of clients become more environmentally responsible.

‘Health & Wellness

Offering unlimited still and sparkling water can be an integral part of a successful Employee Health & Wellness Program. Introducing a Vivreau water program into the workplace makes water easily accessible and encourages employees to choose water over less healthy beverages. With the many benefits of water consumption, companies gain from having a healthier workforce, resulting in reduced employee benefits costs, reduced absenteeism, and higher productivity

‘Cost Savings

An investment in a Vivreau system is a long-term investment in a healthy bottom line. For most clients, Vivreau bottling systems and Vi Taps immediately eliminate dependence on costly and wasteful and single-serve plastic bottled water.

‘Brand Building

Vivreau custom branded glass designer bottles are an unforgettable showcase for your brand, not to mention a compelling way to quickly communicate your environmental stewardship stance to a captive audience.

Our Story

Vivreau began life in the UK nearly four decades ago. At the time, European bottled water companies were taking the world by storm, carving out a niche for their products by selling images of pristine, snow-capped mountains and idyllic spas. The notion was that their water was somehow much better than your water and the lifestyle afforded to its drinkers became aspirational.

Ultimately, however, these products still required millions upon millions of bottles to package and left a significant footprint as they made their way to markets around the globe. Consumers began selecting water that had travelled from thousands of miles away rather than leverage local sources and landfills began to see significant quantities of single serve bottled product refuse despite the growth of recycling infrastructure.

Enter Vivreau, a progressively minded company that embraced this simple idea: local water can be transformed to be every bit as good as the heavily marketed bottled stuff, but with a tiny fraction of the footprint. Through advanced filtration, chilling, carbonation and touch-of-a-button or pull-of-a-handle convenience, Vivreau offered a responsible, intuitive, and above all else, enjoyable, water solution.

In 2008, Vivreau was brought to the US and Canada. It quite literally originated a new category in the marketplace: premium table water dispensing. Up until Vivreau’s arrival on the scene, the market offered only low-output point-of-use systems or massive commercial units that required complex hardwiring into the venue’s infrastructure. Vivreau’s ease of use and broad range of systems with custom configurable components meant that clients could select a system ideal for their venue, with minimal effort. Meanwhile, Vivreau’s signature, proprietary glass bottles permitted a powerful new brand extension for the continent’s top companies and soon became a fixture in boardrooms and VIP lounges from coast to coast.

BRITA SE is Vivreau’s parent company and is a global leader in the provision of water purifying products for consumers and businesses. Vivreau, and by extension, Vivreau clients, benefit significantly from BRITA’s ongoing program of cutting-edge research and development, technological innovation, and excellence in engineering.

Today, Vivreau operates on the unceded traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations, acknowledging the significance of the land and the communities who have cared for it.

Our Team

While Vivreau is known for innovation and technology, ultimately we are a company of diverse people united by our passion for responsible water consumption, good health and cool ideas. Our team spans the US and Canada with members in most major markets. We welcome you to reach out to any one of us at any time with questions.

Being a father drives my commitment to a sustainable future. At VIVREAU, I actively contribute to a healthier planet.
