Who are we?
At Aquablu, we’re not just selling water—we’re transforming the way the world hydrates. Born in 2018 with a bold mission to eliminate single-use plastics, our founders Marnix and Marc launched a smarter, cleaner, and tastier alternative. Today, Aquablu systems are tapped in 16 countries and counting, with partners like Heineken, Adyen, and Marriott joining our wave. Together, we’re on a mission to save one billion plastic bottles by 2030.
“We’re not just quenching thirst - we’re powering a movement that’s thirsty for change.” – Marc, Co-founder of Aquablu
