In today’s most considered hospitality spaces, even the smallest details shape the guest experience. Borg & Overström bring understated luxury to the humble glass of water with the T3 4-in-1 drinking water tap.
Water is the universal language of hospitality. From providing water in hotel suites to offering drinking water on demand in reception, the simple act of serving this essential has long been a symbol of care and attention to guests’ needs.
Traditionally, bottled water has been a staple of hospitality, but Borg & Overström are redefining this standard. With growing guest expectations and a shift toward sustainable operations, hoteliers are seeking smarter, more thoughtful alternatives. The T3 tap provides a design-led, sustainable solution that elevates water from a necessity to a luxury.
How the T3 Tap turns water from an essential into an experience
With its compact footprint and powerful dispense, the T3 delivers great-tasting boiling, chilled, sparkling, and ambient water at the touch of a button. From instant boiling water for a perfectly brewed cup of tea, to a crisp, cool glass of sparkling water, self-service water has never looked or tasted so good.
Designed for commercial environments, the T3 features rapid DryChill® technology, advanced filtration, and Totality® hygiene methodology, ensuring every glass is consistently fresh, filtered, and clean. It transforms a simple act into a moment of effortless luxury for guests.
Drinking water designed to be different
Designed and manufactured in the UK, the T3 combines elegant aesthetics with intuitive functionality. Its minimalist silhouette and refined finishes complement contemporary interiors, allowing the tap to blend seamlessly into any setting. Whether positioned at breakfast bars, in executive lounges, or within luxury lobbies, the T3 enhances the sense of thoughtful hospitality.
Creating refill points also offers opportunities for guests to interact, encouraging moments of refreshment and relaxation. Hotels can further elevate this experience with branded bottles and drinking vessels for guests to take with them, extending the brand experience beyond the stay. Statement, refillable bottles are increasingly seen as a mark of the well-travelled, reflecting personal values, destinations visited, and a commitment to sustainability.
Significant savings with green technology
Beyond aesthetics and guest experience, the T3 delivers tangible operational and environmental benefits. The true cost of bottled water in the hospitality industry is considerable: every single bottle must be ordered, delivered, stored, refrigerated, and replenished. This is before accounting for the single-use waste of plastic, glass, and aluminium, much of which ends up in landfill or polluting the very beaches and destinations that guests travel to enjoy.
By introducing T3 refill points, hotels can significantly reduce costs, minimise waste, and achieve substantial savings in energy, time, and labour. A single T3 can prevent around 35,000 plastic bottles from entering the waste stream, while its intelligent energy-saving technology can reduce energy running costs by up to 70%. When implemented across an entire hotel or a hotel group, the cumulative environmental and financial impact is significant..
Selecting a T3 tap is a subtle yet powerful statement: it allows hotels to offer guests a modern, luxurious, and responsible drinking experience, where sustainability and sophistication flow effortlessly together.
