Disrupting Hospitality’s Most Wasteful Habit: Floris Graziosi’s Water Revolution | Ep. 18

Leeanne Aguilar, Ph.D.

On Industry Ignited, Dr. Leeanne Aguilar interviews Floris Graziosi, CEO & founder of AYR Water (Bali, Indonesia), on how on-site purification, chilling, and bottling systems let hotels and restaurants serve premium still and sparkling water without single-use bottles. Graziosi explains the operational model—dishwasher-safe refillable glass, tap-and-chill systems with CO₂, HACCP-aligned SOPs, and third-party lab testing—that cuts logistics, reduces plastic waste and CO₂, and lowers total cost while elevating guest experience. He shares adoption wins, pre-opening integration for new builds, and why replacing trucked-in bottled water with on-demand, zero-waste service is the fastest sustainability upgrade in hospitality.
