Woolworths found that the continuous heating of water in traditional kettles in staff break rooms led to unnecessary energy consumption, resulting in higher utility bills and a strain on the company's resources. 

With numerous staff break rooms across their stores, the cumulative energy usage from multiple kettles further intensified the problem. Woolworths recognised the need for a more energy-efficient solution that could still cater to their staff's need for quick and convenient access to boiling water. This dilemma prompted them to seek an innovative alternative that would not only optimise energy usage but also align with their commitment to sustainability and responsible resource management.

At this bustling police station, officers frequently found themselves in need of hot water for various purposes, including making hot beverages and preparing quick meals. The inefficiency of their conventional kettle not only wasted valuable time but also resulted in significant electricity costs for the station. Recognising the need for a more efficient and cost-effective solution, the police station sought an alternative that would streamline their operations and reduce unnecessary expenses
