Alpha Mega Supermarkets
Free refill stations helping shoppers ditch single-use plastic
Nicosia & Larnaca, Cyprus
Alpha Mega wanted to give shoppers access to free drinking water while reinforcing its commitment to reducing single-use plastic across key stores.
Objectives
With millions of customers passing through stores each year, Alpha Mega needed a refill solution that could handle high traffic, fit compact front-of-store layouts and support their sustainability goals.
What they needed:
- Convenient hydration in high-traffic public areas
- A sustainable alternative to single-use plastic bottles
- Hygienic, contactless dispensing for shoppers
- Installations completed outside trading hours

Our Drinking Water Solution

Karma Water supplied WRAS-style bottle fillers with sensor operation, stainless finishes and clear signage so customers could refill quickly at store entrances.
Wall-mounted fillers selected for minimal floor-space use
Sensor-activated flow to reduce waste and touch points
Night-time installation to avoid customer disruption
Aftersales checks aligned with store refurbishment cycles
“Customers started using the refill points straight away. It is a visible statement that we take sustainability seriously.”
Conclusion
The pilot stores saw strong customer uptake from day one. Alpha Mega is now evaluating further locations based on footfall and store layout.
Staff report easier upkeep thanks to the agreed service intervals and spare-parts stocking plan.
