An Izumi V.S.O. system treats and remineralises your local supply, then completes the serve through precise temperature and carbonation settings.

The business case

Create a new revenue stream

The system

From local supply to V.S.O. water.

Every local water supply has its own characteristics. Izumi V.S.O. purifies the incoming water, applies a remineralisation process, and completes the serve through precise temperature and carbonation settings.

01

Purify

Reverse osmosis creates a clean and consistent starting point from the venue’s local water supply.

02

Remineralise

A remineralisation process restores mineral character.

03

Finish

Temperature and carbonation are set to complete the still or sparkling serve.

04

Identify

A finished-water sample is laboratory tested to establish its drinking character within the V.S.O. Water Spectrum.

Laboratory tested

Regular Izumi servicing supports consistent system performance and quality of serve. First service free.

Servicing & support
The V.S.O. Water Spectrum

Three expected ranges.
Each with a distinct drinking character.

Laboratory testing identifies the finished water’s V.S.O. drinking profile.

Yotei Snowmelt

Soft and light

Very soft, light and exceptionally clean.

Fushimi Smooth

Smooth and balanced

Rounded, balanced and broadly appealing.

Rokko Mineral

Fuller-bodied and mineral

Crisp, fuller-bodied and distinctly mineral.

V.S.O. water produced from Australian source waters is expected to fit within one of these three drinking-character ranges. The range is established by laboratory testing of the finished water, not selected in advance.

A note from our founder

The taste stayed with me.

“I never forgot the first time I drank water straight from a spring on a Japanese mountainside. It was clean and effortless to drink, with a softness you never forget. Above all, it felt pure, natural, and to a thirsty hiker, genuinely pleasurable.

When I came home to Australia, I kept thinking about that experience. I was sure most of us would drink more water, and be better off for it, if our water tasted better and didn’t come from a bottle.

We can’t all live on a mountainside with a cold-water spring. But surely we could transform locally sourced water into something with that same softness, balance and drinking pleasure?

Izumi was built from that belief.”
