Pioneers of change
Blupura entered the market with the mantra "Less plastic is cool". Those were times when sustainability was not a priority for water cooler manufacturers, but for us it was paramount.
From the very beginning, we chose to be true pioneers in the sector, adopting only natural refrigerant gases. We have chosen to offer only machines connected directly to the water supply, a tangible sign of our commitment to the environment within our products, thus demonstrating our environmental sustainability and our commitment to limiting the use of plastic.
We are convinced that saving is essential, both for economic development and for the environment.
This decision has granted us for years the privilege and pride of being the only water cooler manufacturer mentioned on the website www.cooltechnologies.org and in the Greenpeace report "Cool Technologies: working without HFCs".
Using chillers connected to the water network helps to eliminate the economic costs of transporting bottled water and their enormous environmental impact on the entire planet.
Regarding plastic bottles, their transportation by land for distribution and their physical production requires large amounts of energy and resources (including a significant quantity of water!) and all this has such a negative impact on the ecosystem that it contributes to the climate changes taking place. In fact, single-use plastic is still today one of the main causes of environmental pollution, including the oceans.
Conversely, the water directly available from the mains is good, controlled and can be treated with filtrations to be consumed in complete safety at home, in the workplace, anywhere with the use of reusable bottles. And with the help of smart dispensers, designed for every situation of use.
Contributing to this possible change is part of our job, every day.

Blupura Greenwood with Treedom
In collaboration with Treedom, Blupura has launched the Blupura Greenwood project, which involves the planting of 1,000 trees in 2024 and another 1,000 in 2025 in countries such as Colombia, Ghana, Guatemala, Kenya, and Madagascar. These trees will not only help offset CO₂ emissions, with an estimated 316 tons absorbed for every 1,000 trees, but will also bring tangible benefits to local communities by providing food resources and economic opportunities.
The Blupura Greenwood trees will contribute to improving biodiversity, combating soil erosion, and creating sustainable ecosystems. Thanks to the collaboration with Treedom, each tree will have a geolocated online page where its growth and positive impact can be tracked. Discover and follow the growth of our forest on Treedom!

Blupura in action for the environment
Blupura is consistently committed to promoting concrete initiatives that contribute to environmental protection. These actions not only aim to safeguard the ecosystem but also actively engage our employees and collaborators, strengthening our shared commitment to a cleaner and more sustainable future. Each initiative represents a tangible step toward realizing our mission of reducing environmental impact and promoting a greener lifestyle.
A significant example was the clean-up organized in September 2024 in collaboration with Plastic Free, during which over 100 Blupura employees collected 240 kg of waste in just an hour and a half from a beach near our production facility. This initiative contributed to preserving the marine ecosystem and the natural beauty of the area.
