Our commitment runs deep

The planet matters. Communities matter. You matter. We truly believe every drop counts. As a company, we embrace responsible behaviors that put the good of our community above all. We promote the health and wellness benefits of water, coffee, and tea and give back to the communities we serve. By sourcing and processing responsibly, we protect the planet. All of this matters to you, to us, and our future.

Every effort delivers on a promise

Environment

Environmental sustainability is a daily commitment that promises a better tomorrow. We continually seek ways to deliver on our promise to protect the planet we all call home. That’s a promise worth keeping.

Responsible Sourcing

We seek to source all of our bottled waters responsibly. Our water sources are carefully selected and closely monitored to ensure consistent quality and sustainable yield. And, we align our company with brands that do the same.

Reduce & Recycle

We reduce our environmental impact by using less. Over the last 10 years, we have reduced the amount of plastic in our U.S. and Canada-branded 500ml bottles by more than 50% and in the caps by 25%. All packaging is 100% recyclable, including the bottles, caps, and outer wrap.

Reuse & Repurpose

Our U.S.- and Canada-branded 3-gallon (11.3 liters) and 5-gallon (18.9 liters) water bottles are reused up to 50 times. At the end of their usable life, the bottles are recycled and used to make new products. This closed-loop recycling system allows us to reduce our carbon footprint by assuring that bottles do not go to landfills.

Efficient Transport

We are currently working on multiple fronts to improve transport efficiency. Recent vehicle purchases promise a 40% increase in fuel productivity. To reduce delivery mileage, our representatives use smartphones to optimize their routes. When considering new water sources, we search for suitable locations near existing bottling plants. We are also developing specialized load/unload procedures and reducing transport distances from springs to bottling plants.

Reducing Paper Dependence

Across our entire organization, we've implemented a number of measures to reduce paper usage. We've moved many customers to a digital billing and contract model. Also, we've adopted digital document storage practices.

Commitment strengthens communities

Social

We feel a strong sense of commitment to local communities. And, the world at large. Why? Because we're more than a socially responsible bottled water company, we are also part of the community.

Community Wellness

Hydration is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. So, we provide sponsorship to local events such as 5Ks, volunteer events, and more.

Times of Need

When disaster strikes, safe drinking water is a vitally important resource. That's where our regional brands provide needed relief. They regularly support humanitarian causes such as donating to relief efforts for communities ravaged by hurricanes.

Every promise embraces our responsibility

Governance

Water is essential to our lives. That's exactly why we take so many steps to guarantee we produce quality bottled water that meets the highest safety standards. Furthermore, we are committed to full compliance with corporate financial regulations.

Dedicated to Quality

We use certified laboratories to ensure our bottled water products meet strict state and federal food and beverage quality and safety standards. We include accurate sourcing information on our labels. All of our brands are regulated as a food by the FDA. We work diligently to ensure that we meet or exceed the FDA standards for food safety and quality as required by the agency's Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).

Committed to Accountability

We strongly adhere to corporate compliance laws such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We implement comprehensive internal controls and procedures to ensure responsibility and provide transparency.
