They do not excite the retailer or the consumer – Refill solutions are not new, and there are far more cost-effective ways of delivering concentrate (concentrate bottles, capsules or pouches), but in the end retailers and consumers must adopt solutions. To date, these other solutions have failed. Gravity based closures are failing too. They are inconvenient and complex -They require excessive amounts of time to evacuate, leave excessive tank residue, and do not mix without additional user interaction. They have severe viscosity limitations – higher viscosity concentrates will not work and limit the offerings that can be provided.

Vessl will never sell or rent any of your personal information, and we will never share your personal information publicly without your consent. However, from time to time, Vessl may engage other trusted third party companies and individuals to perform functions such as sending postal mail and e-mail, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), and providing customer service. Such companies shall only use your personal information for those purposes required to perform their functions and you consent to Vessl sharing your personal information with such companies so they can perform their functions.
