Did you know the Water Cooler was invented in 1906?
Old fashioned water cooler at the New Orleans Mint 1891
little side note: In 1911, Haws patented the water faucet!!
We of course at Jonli believe that the bottleless water cooler is the best option for any workplace, given our over-use of plastics, the stagnation of water collecting bacteria in the plastic bottles and the idea of having a gentler impact on our environment, by reducing plastics in our lives.
“Today there are two main types of water cooler: bottled and bottleless. The bottleless cooler connects directly to the water supply and has a filtering process for purifying the water. One of the big advantages here is that you don't have to maintain the cumbersome and heavy bottles; plus, bottleless water is cheaper and more environmentally friendly.”
