THE IMPORTANCE OF DRINKING FOUNTAINS IN URBAN SPACES: FEATURING THE APOLLO 280
Whether on city streets, in parks or at recreation areas, accessible hydration points keep people moving, whether they’re commuting, cycling or just enjoying the outdoors. But it is not just about convenience. Thoughtfully designed hydration solutions enhance public spaces, making them more inviting, functional and user-friendly.
A standout example is the Apollo 280 drinking fountain, one of Urban+’s most sought-after designs. Purposefully tailored for bustling urban spaces, the A280 comes standard with a water bubbler and a bottle filler, enabling effortless and user-friendly hydration in public areas. It fits seamlessly into local parks, busy city streetscapes and other public settings, offering a durable, stylish solution that encourages healthier habits and helps reduce single-use plastic waste.
What truly sets the A280 apart is its adaptability. The A280 is available in a range of configurations to suit diverse needs and optional extras include Tap & Dog Bowl, Catchment Tray, Maintenance Tap and a AS1428 compliant version with a longer basin. Further customisation options include custom artwork, anti-graffiti coatings and a choice of over 100+ powder-coated finishes. There is also the option for a full stainless-steel design, ensuring the A280 not only meets functional requirements but integrates into harsh environments.
Investing in well-designed drinking fountains is not just about meeting a basic needs, it’s about enhancing the experience of public spaces. When essential amenities are both practical and visually appealing, people are more likely to return.
