Our Story

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 chec

The Beginning

Nearly four decades ago, Vivreau started in the UK, as European bottled water brands dominated by promoting images of pristine mountains and luxurious lifestyles. However, these products relied on millions of bottles, leaving a large environmental footprint as they were shipped worldwide. Consumers often chose water from distant sources, while landfills filled up with single-use bottles, despite recycling efforts.

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.

North America

In 2008, Vivreau entered the US and Canada, creating a new category: premium table water dispensing. Before this, only low-output or bulky commercial systems were available. Vivreau's customizable systems offered ease of use, and its signature glass bottles became a staple in top boardrooms and VIP lounges across the continent.

BRITA SE

Forty years after its birth in the UK, and two thirds of a decade operation in North Vivreau, Vivreau was acquired by world-renowned water filtration company Brita SE. 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.

Vivreau Today

Today, Vivreau is a familiar name in the hospitality sector for enabling restaurants to bottle and sell their own water, and a common sight in offices and boardrooms across North America as a way of increasing morale and brand awareness. Vivreau remains the responsible hydration brand of choice for forward-thinking facilities around the world.

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

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.
