WMF announces distribution partnership with Ripples in Germany and Austria

Ripples Inc., the powerful new marketing platform for customer engagement, and WMF, the leading global provider of professional coffee equipment for hotels and the Food and Beverage industry, announce today a sales distribution deal. WMF will be offering the Ripple Maker alongside their premium quality automatic and semi-automatic barista coffee machines in Germany and Austria.

The Ripple Maker is a revolutionary device that prints beautiful high-resolution images and messages directly on to any foam-topped drink, such as cappuccino, Nitro-brewed coffee, as well as foam-topped cocktails. The technology heralds a significant innovation in marketing and customer engagement for Hotel, Restaurant and Coffee businesses, transforming the simple act of serving a drink into a surprising event that customers want to enjoy again and again.

The Ripple Maker perfectly complements the WMF ‘Dynamic Milk’ system, allowing baristas to deliver smiles with every cup, all at the touch of a button. Dynamic Milk, available with the WMF 1500 S, WMF 5000 S and WMF 9000 S+ coffee machines, produces the highest quality of milk foam in the market, and enables the fully automatic preparation of hot or cold milk, and milk foam beverages.
