What is Bevi.co and what makes the Smart Water Cooler so special?
Bevi.co is a US pioneering company from Boston, founded in 2013 by Eliza Becton, Sean Grundy and Frank Lee. Their vision: to revolutionise the beverage market and eliminate single-use plastic completely.
The key features of Bevi:
Variety at the touch of a button: Still, sparkling, with natural flavours or functional additives (vitamins, electrolytes).
IoT connectivity: Real-time monitoring of consumption data and automatic service notifications.
User experience: Modern touch interfaces for intuitive operation.
Sustainability: Thousands of plastic bottles are saved every year per site.
Availability: Is Bevi available in Germany, Austria or Switzerland?
Bevi has established itself firmly in North America (USA & Canada) with over 6,000 installations. In early 2025, the company began its first international expansion in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The catch for the DACH region: To date (early 2026), there is no widespread service infrastructure or official availability of Bevi in Germany, Austria and Switzerland at the level of the US market. For companies here, this creates significant hurdles:
Lack of on-site service: Maintenance and installation are critical for complex IoT water dispensers.
Import hurdles: Logistics costs and customs issues often make the solution uneconomical.
Other standards: German drinking water regulations and hygiene standards (such as DIN standards) are stricter than in the US.
