Nestlé Waters Steps Up Water Conservation Efforts

Nestlé Waters, the leading brand in the packaged water sector, has intensified its efforts to achieve water conservation for the future of water and sustainable management. Michel Beneventi, General Manager of the Company at its plant in Bursa Kestel, which has saved approximately 550 million liters of water over 10 years, said on World Water Week that "water is the most valuable legacy we can leave to future generations."

Reduced Losses in Water Filling

Nestlé Waters Turkey operates multiple projects to use water more efficiently in the production process. The Company, which prioritizes water recovery through the Water Task project and has achieved 250 million liters of water savings, uses cost-effective nozzle systems with the same hygienic effect in carboy washing systems. As a result, the plant has obtained approximately 150 million liters of water savings, and also implements the Net Content project to reduce losses in filling. Through this method, which has been in use for 6 years, 150 million liters of water have been recovered so far.

We Are Also Responsible for Efficient Water Management

Nestlé Waters Turkey General Manager Michel Beneventi, noting that water is the most valuable legacy that can be left to future generations, made the following statements regarding World Water Week, which is celebrated between 23 August and 1 September this year: "In order to leave healthy water resources to future generations, we place sustainability at the center of our business, and in our Turkey operations we aim to manage water resources more effectively. In our work, we focus not only on our products but on the entire supply chain. We take responsibility for managing water most efficiently throughout all processes from the source until it reaches our consumer. For this, we act with comprehensive strategies and targets involving our stakeholders and working with necessary institutions. The project we launched under the 'Protect What We Must' initiative with our Erikli brand, to preserve the natural wealth of Uludağ, which is the source of our taste, is the most effective example of our corporate objectives."
