What meetpat actually makes

meetpat (branded Meet PAT) designs and manufactures modular water refill stations and drinking fountains for public and commercial spaces: chilled, filtered water points built around a Fibredyne filter and a smart water meter, with touch-free sensors, an optional independent chiller, IoT LoraWAN monitoring, solar-powered illumination and an auto-flush kit. The goal is public infrastructure that makes tap water the easy choice over bottled water.

Where the stations show up

  • Major events: Australian Open 2026, described by meetpat as one of the event’s premier water suppliers
  • Public and commercial spaces: permanent installations across more than 20 countries
  • International distribution: listed as a product line through Culligan in the UK and Ireland

Proof, not just claims

meetpat is Certified B Corporation with a B Impact Assessment score of 92.8, independently verified on B Lab’s registry. It also holds Australian Made certification, confirmed on the Australian Made licensee registry, plus NSF, Watermark and Disability certifications listed on its own site. meetpat states it has delivered “millions of refills” across “20+ countries”; those are the company’s own figures rather than independently audited totals, and are reported here as such.

Why this belongs on a sustainability directory

Every refill at a meetpat station is a bottle that was not bought, shipped and thrown away. Public refill infrastructure is one of the more direct, physical interventions against single-use plastic waste, which ties meetpat’s product to SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production) and SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), since the whole product exists to make clean drinking water genuinely accessible in public spaces.
