Ask about Coinadrink’s range of quality refurbished vending machines!

Coinadrink Limited is a trusted vending company supplying hot and cold drinks, fresh food, snacks and water to the West Midlands and immediate surrounding areas. Amongst other things, a key attribute that sets us apart from the competition is our pledge for quality. And with our range of refurbished vending machines, you can enjoy the “Coinadrink quality” for less.

Our history has been built on the belief that vending machines are an excellent solution to providing food and drink on site. They can even boost the wellbeing and productivity of your workforce, which is why they are now strongly regarded as a necessity to have. We feel that everybody should have access to these benefits.

As part of our pro-active CSR strategy, we make every effort to reuse our vending machines. In a lot of cases we do, though if a vending machine exceeds 8 years old then we can no longer guarantee the sort of quality we want to provide to our customers. In this case we will appropriately discard the machine using the correct channels.

You can read more about Coinadrink’s CSR strategy here.

Our refurbished vending machine range covers hot drinks machines, snack machines, cold drinks machines and water coolers, though only certain models.

How we guarantee quality with our refurbished vending machines.

Every vending machine that we bring back from a customers’ premises gets thoroughly checked for the condition it has been returned to us in. We then decide whether we ourselves can carry out the refurb, or whether this needs to be done using a trusted third-party company we work with.

If we can handle the refurb ourselves, the vending machine will then go through a 30-point checklist that leaves no stone unturned. This includes a variety of maintenance, from sanitising all contact parts to stripping and replacing the major components. The boiler is also removed to be appropriately descaled.

Essentially, then, our refurbished vending machines are pretty much brand new where it really matters. The machine is then put through a rigorous test to make sure everything operates as it should.

Just because you’re having a refurbished vending machine, it doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice the sort of additions you want. Just like what we offer with our new machines, we can individually set up your machine to suit your requirements. This includes adding vinyl finishes and your corporate branding and colours.

If you’ve visited our website or been on our social media channels recently, you will have noticed the arrival of Purezone antimicrobial technology. Compatible with a number of our vending machines, Purezone is a transparent film that reduces the number of bacteria and viruses on your equipment. It is unaffected by our general cleaning protocols and doesn’t require you to change the way you use your equipment.

As a welcome bonus for customers enjoying one of our refurbished vending machines, you can now enjoy Purezone technology as standard, providing your equipment is compatible. If it’s not, you will still enjoy all the hygiene standards that set Coinadrink apart from the competition. This delivers complete peace of mind.

Get started with a refurbished vending machine.

We recently produced a blog post about the benefits of having a vending machine in the workplace, including the fact that they are cost-effective and easy to use and maintain.

A refurbished vending machine introduces these benefits for less and is a great way to experience vending. As our stock varies, why not contact us today about what you can currently enjoy?

We’d love to hear from you!

West Midlands vending firm Coinadrink Limited helps deliver safer vending for everyone.

Like most things in the world, vending and coffee machines have dramatically progressed through innovation. Since Hero of Alexander invented the world’s first vending machine in the late 1800’s, the vending industry as a whole has only continued to grow.

West Midlands vending firm Coinadrink Limited, already pro-active with our industry leading hygiene standards, has introduced new innovation to our range that takes vending into territory never seen before. Through contactless equipment, advanced technologies and clever adaptations, vending machines and water dispensers now deliver peace of mind as standard. 

Read more below.

Coinadrink Limited is a supplier of vending machines, so we work in collaboration with our suppliers to provide equipment and technologies to our customer base. We aren’t tied down to any of these companies, meaning we are in the best position to offer innovation that we see meaningful advantages in.

Coinadrink has always maintained vending machines are a safer way to enjoy refreshments than commonplace alternatives. This is especially the case when you choose us as your supplier, as we break the hygiene boundaries for your peace of mind. A vending machine requires fewer touch points than using the kettle, for example, what with all the shared amenities including milk and sugar.

But then we saw an opportunity to take this to the next level.

Breakthrough technology introduces a safer vending machine experience.

We have now introduced a dedicated “contactless” range to our flexible machine lineup. You can find this on our website. Whilst this webpage may not contain equipment that is all contactless, it does group together everything that helps deliver a safer vending experience. In fact, one of our biggest recent additions still involves interacting with your vending machine as you usually would!

Purezone antimicrobial film can be fitted to any machine that utilises a touchscreen or touch sensitive user interface. Whilst the transparent nature is barely noticeable to the user, the reactive silver ions it contains will quickly inhibit any bacteria. This prevents the spread between two disinfection protocols and reduces a variety of bacteria and viruses.

We didn’t want to limit such a revolutionary vending experience to a collection of new equipment, so we’re confident all of our customers will appreciate being able to use Purezone with their existing machine, providing their machine is included in the available list. And we’re confident that this arrival will revolutionise an industry that just keeps on growing.

Purezone technology from Coinadrink Limited delivers unrivalled peace of mind.

The arrival of contactless equipment.

For those intrigued at the prospect of contactless equipment, however, we have good news to share. From a recent survey, 81% of respondents suggested they would like higher quality tea and coffee in their workplace. The stylish Vitro, with fresh bean coffee available, has always provided that. And thanks to “Distance Selection”, it now provides added peace of mind in addition.

Distance Selection enables the user to make their selection simply by “hovering” their finger over the desired icon. This completely eliminates the need to interact with the machine directly, which reduces the vital touch point many businesses were concerned about. Distance Selection is fitted to all new Vitro (excluding the S1) and Neo models as standard, though can be retrofitted to existing machines.

Moving onto water and there has been an incredible level of innovation witnessed here, too. We initially acquired exciting new equipment from a trusted supplier that would showcase the rate in which vending and similar equipment could adapt to the rapid change in demand. Our new water coolers from AA First make it easy to place your cup or bottled against the button in order to dispense water. Again, this reduces the need to interact with the cooler directly.

As an added bonus, however, these water coolers use Sip Neo 3 technology. This means the dispensers can automatically “self-sanitise” on a custom schedule tailored to the customer. Coinadrink’s sanitisation process on our water coolers is already industry leading, but it’s reassuring to know this equipment can “fill in the blanks” when our operators aren’t on site.

Our keen eye for advantageous innovation grew wider. It wasn’t long before we adopted new accessories that introduced a contactless dispense to certain existing water coolers. The stylish Borg B3 and B4 plumbed-in water dispensers were the dispensers taking centre stage. Firstly, a simple yet effective hands-free foot switch was made available in collaboration with this equipment, providing customers with a fantastic way to minimise those all-important touch points with their equipment.

This then travelled further with the arrival of a new mobile application a few months later. Positioned as an upgrade for new and existing B3 and B4 models, and able to work conjunction with the foot switch, the mobile app enabled the user to control their cooler using just their smartphone. Bluetooth connectivity ensures of a seamless process from initial set up to ongoing usage. Customers can even connect to multiple coolers if they have more than one.

With over 90% of people between 16 and 54 using a mobile phone in the UK today, it makes perfect sense to intertwine our smartphones with our refreshment facilities. We have already recorded strong demand for this enticing add-on, as we’ve had with our existing contactless solutions and technologies.

Borg's new mobile app introduces another contactless hydration experience.

PPE Vending Machines from Coinadrink!

As a final point to this article, we’re delighted to say that we are now also offering PPE vending machines. Supplied early on in the pandemic, we worked with a close supplier to recognise this fantastic opportunity. Modern day vending machines are capable of storing and dispensing a variety of products. Our new service line adapts snack vending machines to deliver essential PPE including face masks, goggles and hand sanitiser.

A vending machine is a great solution for providing PPE as it’s safe, secure and easy to use. The snack machines in question are robust and reliable enough to be placed almost anywhere, including public environments, and they’re a very good option for larger workspaces. A key issue with the provision of PPE has always been monitoring the items and reducing waste. Choosing a vending machine from Coinadrink provides added peace of mind with a handy key card that shows you exactly where your PPE is going.

We now supply PPE vending machines!

Breakthrough Purezone technology introduces a more hygienic vending machine experience!

In what is huge news for our prospective and existing customers, Coinadrink Limited delighted to announce that we are now offering a product called Purezone. Purezone is a transparent film that is applied directly over touch screens and interfaces, to fight bacteria 24/7. This provides a welcome layer of protection during a time when this is essential to most.

How does Purezone reduce the spread of bacteria?

The antimicrobial film reduces the presence of a variety of bacteria and viruses, by utilising reactive silver ions to inhibit the environment that they would usually thrive in. Best of all, this works continuously, without the need for cleaning between every use.

Coupled with the exemplary hygiene standards that Coinadrink work to, this further emphasises our dedication to health and safety. The film is effective for up to three years from application and is unaffected by general cleaning protocols that our operators follow.

Whilst we continue to emphasise that vending is perfectly safe to continue using in your workplace, we appreciate that more people now require added reassurance from their facilities. Purezone ensures your team can continue using vending machines with extremely minimal concern.
