Water
Water is a Key Ingredient in All of Our Products
Our companies are dedicated to protecting, preserving and providing a safe and affordable water supply. Sustainable water use is in the long-term interest of our business, our consumers and the environment.
Although water is the primary ingredient in many of our beverages, the beverage industry actually uses a surprisingly small amount of water. In fact, we account for only 3/100ths of 1 percent of all public water usage!
Our industry does its part to protect water resources by practicing sound environmental polices that:
- Protect natural resources
- Minimize effluent, or wastewater
- Properly clean wastewater before it is released into the environment
- Reduce water consumption by employing water recycling systems that include recycled water in the production process wherever possible
- Help prevent groundwater contamination
- Enhance global water sustainability and community programs.
