n Programmable energy management system reduces power consumption by up to 30% n Flash cooling technology means electricity is only consumed when a chilled drink selection is actually made n Gravity-fed paperless brewer uses less energy than a pressurised system n Permanent refillable ingredient canisters mean less packaging, wastage and cost (compared with pod and in-cup machines)
Snack, can and bottle ........................................................................................................ n Foam injected cabinet and door on Quattro, Quinto and Duo for ultimate insulation n Triple glazed window reduces heat transfer n Low energy, long-life LED lighting

A passion for sustainable manufacturing:
on emissions. But one of the fastest ways to save money ed. With this in mind, Westomatic has taken a proactive ms of green innovation including; design, supply chain
Long operational life n All Westomatic machines are of a robust nature (Prelude, Sigma & Azure)
.................................................................................................. n 50,000 hour, long-life LED lighting means no-more fluorescent light tubes to replace n Use of recycled materials wherever possible n Cup sensor allows the use of own cup, mug, jug or bottle which reduces waste n Larger, more efficient water filters extend machine life and reduce the need for service calls

*Machines shown with optional platinum branding
n Patented side elevations deliver cool air directly on the products (rather than chill the entire cabinet): the refrigeration system doesn’t have to work as hard and reduces waste energy n Use of ozone-friendly R134a refrigerant

to ensure operational longevity and our dedicated machine refurbishment centre means we can also cost-effectively extend the working life of equipment which further reduces waste and reliance on land-fill
Exceptional recycling properties n Recycled materials used where ever possible, including plastic mouldings on Sigma and Azure n In-house paint plant recycles heat from drying process for the final baking cycle and over 90% of over-spayed powder coating is reused n All spare parts are distributed in reused boxes. In fact, Westomatic has not purchased a cardboard box since 1994!
Responsible purchasing and distribution n 92% of the components and materials used in Westomatic machines are sourced in the UK n Buying from a British Manufacturer means shorter logistic paths and a reduced carbon footprint n All UK delivered free standing beverage machines are transported in long-life re-useable cases (free from shrink-wrap, polystyrene, cardboard and wooden pallets)

Leading the way in energy efficiency...
Forward thinking…
........................................................................................
The European Vending Association (EVA) has introduced an ‘Energy Management Protocol’ to effectively measure the energy consumption of vending machines. The results speak for themselves with some competitor machines using up to 51% more energy compared to Westomatic machines.
Even our Key Account Managers are going green following the lease of our first hybrid company car which can achieve up to 720 miles on one tank: that helps to minimise Westomatic’s carbon footprint and keep our fuel costs in-check.
