Oasis launches first water cooler with Philips instant Trust
April 16, 2012
Oasis International announced a new partnership agreement with Philips Lighting; an agreement which will enable Oasis to integrate the InstantTrust UV-disinfectant into its own technology. With the Philips InstantTrust solution, water dispensed from coolers is disinfected instantly and efficiently and will soon be available in the Oasis Kalix water cooler, the Aqua Pointe and VersaFiller® bottle fillers.
Philips InstantTrust disinfects water as it is being dispensed at a ratio of up to four litres/minute. The simple and quick disinfection process is ideal for water dispensing solutions such as Oasis’ bottle refill stations and water coolers. The unique design allows disinfecting both hot and cold water on demand.
“We’re very proud to be working in partnership with Philips Lighting and providing this unique, state-of-the-art UV disinfection technology in our water coolers and bottle fillers. By adding Philips InstantTrust into our water coolers and bottle fillers we’re the only company to offer a solution that disinfects water just before it’s served. This partnership exemplifies our commitment to developing innovative water-friendly solutions that provide fresh, great tasting, safer water for everyone, everywhere” stated John Kucharik, CEO and President of OASIS.
Hendrik-Jan Dreuning, Global Marketing Director UV Purification at Philips Lighting declared: “Philips is committed to enhancing people’s health and well-being, and thanks to InstantTrust, we can ensure cleaner water is always within reach: anytime, anywhere. We’re pleased to be working with Oasis, a global company that offers innovative solutions for water coolers, and look forward to a rewarding partnership. Together we’ll be making safer water available for people around the world.”
The new Philips InstantTrust solution is designed to fit point-of-use water delivery solutions including taps, water pitchers, underthesink water filters and portable counter-top systems. Oasis and Philips will continue to work closely to integrate the InstantTrust into its entire product range. The Kalix will be the first of the Oasis water cooler lines to include Philips InstantTrust.
