Aqualyte 800g Sachets

Aqualyte 800 g sachets

Shared-station format — one 800 g sachet mixes into 20–25 L of water, enough to serve a crew of 10–15 through a shift from a single dispenser. The right format for crib rooms, toolbox meetings, shift start-up dispensing, and any situation where multiple workers fill bottles from a common source. More economical per-gram than smaller formats.

When to choose 800 g sachets

• Crib rooms and lunch sheds — mix in a 25 L insulated dispenser at shift start; workers fill bottles on break.
• Shift start-up / pre-start — dispense a pre-mixed cup at the start of hot-weather shifts to front-load hydration.
• Civil and mining sites — bulk dispensers on site vehicles or in shade structures.
• Emergency services and disaster response — large-crew deployments where individual sachet distribution is impractical.

Mixing and storage

Add one 800 g sachet to 20–25 L of potable water. Cold water dissolves more slowly; using tepid water for initial mix, then chilling, works best. Large insulated dispensers (Igloo-style, Willow-style) keep the mix cold for a full shift. Stir or shake midway through the shift if the dispenser sits still — the mix can stratify at low temperature.

Shelf-life once mixed

Mixed Aqualyte in an insulated dispenser is shelf-stable for the duration of a shift. Decant any unused mix at shift end rather than leaving it overnight. The dispenser must be thoroughly cleaned between days — electrolyte residue is a microbial growth medium.

Hygiene and dispensing

Use closed-lid dispensers with tap-style taps to prevent contamination. Workers fill bottles directly from the tap rather than dipping bottles or cups into the dispenser. Don't use the dispenser as a shared drinking cup — it's for bottle refilling only.

Distribution planning

One 800 g sachet = 20–25 L of mixed drink = 30–40 × 600 mL bottle fills. For a 10-worker summer shift with 3–4 refills each, one 800 g sachet typically covers a shift. Stock 2–3 sachets per day for most crews; scale up for extreme heat or larger workforces.

Standards & compliance

FSANZ-compliant bulk packaging, Australian-made, ingredient and nutritional disclosure on every sachet.

Frequently asked questions

What size dispenser matches an 800 g sachet?

25 L insulated beverage dispensers are the standard — the sachet mixes to full strength at 20–25 L. Smaller dispensers (5 L or 10 L) are better served by 25 g or 80 g sachets. Larger (50 L+) will require two sachets.

Can 800 g sachets replace individual sachets entirely?

Yes in crew-based workplaces, but most sites run a mix — bulk dispensers for crib rooms plus 25 g sachets for individual bottles and field stock. This covers static and mobile consumption patterns.

How long does a mixed dispenser stay safe to drink?

One shift when kept cold and closed. Beyond that, microbial risk rises. Empty and clean the dispenser at shift end.

Do you offer trade or bulk pricing?

Yes — trade accounts receive 5% off RRP, and site-wide hydration programs ordering 800 g sachets by the carton or pallet receive volume discounts. Apply for a trade account →
