Traditional water coolers encourage users to use a cup once then throw it away, so the 'Spray the Cup' cup washing water dispenser is designed to help reduce this instance.
Working with a liquid nano-coating, the 'Spray the Cup' system would enable the interior and exterior portions of the drinking vessel to be disinfected quickly and easily. From here, users would be provided with a fresh cup each time without having to throw it in the garbage after use. This could save up to 15-times more cups to help reduce the number of vessels going to the landfill.
The 'Spray the Cup' cup washing water dispenser is designed by Soroush Vahidian and helps to increase awareness surrounding unrecognized ways resources are being wasted.
