    The Company

    Transforming the art & science of water since 1947

    Founded in Sydney, Australia, Zip Water has spent more than 75 years perfecting drinking-water technology. The HydroTap range offers boiling, chilled, and sparkling water settings. In 2017 Zip joined Culligan International, expanding across the US and North America while keeping its Australian design and manufacturing heritage.

    Their focus is on product design and convenience. Say goodbye to boiling water on the stovetop and buying cans of sparkling water — it's water, refreshed.
