6. Refill
Life with less plastic made easy. We are partnering with Refill to encourage water bottle re-use.
Anyone can download the free Refill app to tap into a global network of places to reduce, reuse and refill. From a coffee on your commute, to drinking water on the go or even shopping with less plastic, Refill puts the power to go packaging free at your fingertips.
Home - Refill - find places to eat, drink and shop with less waste
For business - log yourselves as a refill location
Put your tap on the map.
By signing up as a Refill Station you’ll be taking action to reduce waste and prevent plastic pollution. Simply sign up to the app and put a sticker in your window, alerting passers-by that they’re welcome to come on in and get a Refill.
To add your Refill Station, you can download the free Refill App or use the online form.
Good for business
A YouGov survey in 2018 showed 64% of consumers would be more likely to return if they could refill their water bottle. 62% said it would make them choose a business that offered free refills over a competitor and 73% would view a business more favourably if it gave free water on request.

60 million plastic bottles saved
It works.
The number of people who normally drink tap water on-the-go more than doubled from 1 in every 5 people (18%) to 1 in every two people (55%) since the Refill campaign launched.
762 tonnes of plastic and 3,431 tonnes of carbon have been saved.
