LOS ANGELES, Jan. 2, 2020 /CNW/ - Cott Corporation (NYSE:COT;
TSX:BCB) (the "Company" or "Cott"), a leading provider of home and
office bottled water delivery services in North America and Europe and a leader in custom coffee roasting
for the U.S. food service industry, today announced that DS
Services, a wholly owned subsidiary of Cott, has launched
PureFlo®, an IoT ("Internet of Things") enabled water
filtration unit that continuously monitors water quality and filter
life, proactively detects issues and service needs, and-provides
detailed, real-time analytics on water usage and water quality to
anyone drinking from the unit.
"We are excited to announce the launch of PureFlo, our most
advanced filtration solution designed to give consumers peace of
mind in the quality of the water they drink," said Dave Muscato, President of DS Services. "PureFlo
is a critical part of our strategy to provide a range of hydration
solutions wherever our customers live, work and play."
PureFlo first launched in Southern
California for the commercial and residential markets and
will expand across North America
over the next two years. With PureFlo's innovative technology, the
life of the water filter is meaningfully extended and requires
fewer service interactions compared to standard water filtration
systems, leading to increased customer satisfaction and
convenience.
