ESG healthy water

ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) is a concept that defines indicators according to which companies and organizations are measured and evaluate their impact on the environment, society and corporate governance. These three elements are used as criteria for investors, customers and business partners to evaluate the overall impact of the organization beyond economic profitability:

ESG focuses on the environmental impact of organizations, where the issue of the use of healthy water and the protection of water sources are a central part of this. Water is an essential natural resource, and a commitment to supply healthy, clean and wholesome water is considered part of the corporate commitment to protecting the environment and promoting public health.

Significant projects based on healthy water:

  1. Nestlé Waters and initiatives for the use of healthy water : Nestlé has launched several initiatives aimed at increasing the use of healthy water and reducing the environmental impact of the company's operations. For example, Nestlé's factories reduced the amount of water they use in production processes, and at the same time the company launched programs to conserve local water sources.

  2. PepsiCo and the Healthy Water Project : PepsiCo launched a global initiative to reduce water use and increase access to clean water in developing countries. The project, which also includes investments in water technologies, is part of the company's ESG strategy.

  3. Unilever and healthy water initiatives in Africa : Unilever worked in collaboration with international organizations to promote access to healthy and clean water in remote villages in Africa. The project not only provided access to safe drinking water but also contributed to the overall health of the populations in these areas.

The benefits for organizations and companies:

  1. Improved public image : Investing in healthy water as part of the ESG strategy improves the public image of the organization, shows a commitment to sustainability and public health and creates trust among consumers.

  2. Attracting investors : Many investors prefer to invest in companies that commit to sustainability and social responsibility. Projects based on healthy water can be an attraction for investors who care about sustainability.

  3. Reducing regulatory risks : A commitment to use healthy water may reduce regulatory risks related to water pollution and environmental crises, thus reducing potential legal and regulatory costs.

  4. Improving operational efficiency : efficient use of water can reduce operational costs over time, especially in industries that consume large amounts of water in their production processes.

Currently, the awareness of structured water as an important element in human health is increasing, and there are organizations and companies that are starting to integrate structured water into their production processes and water supply to employees, as part of their ESG strategy.

Commitment of organizations to use structured water:

  1. Structured water in workplaces : There are organizations that are starting to introduce systems to create structured water in their work facilities. These systems allow employees access to water that is based on studies that describe the positive health effects of structured water, such as improving vitality, hydration, and general health.

  2. Using structured water in production processes : There are factories and agricultural fields that are starting to use structured water in their production processes, believing that this water can improve the quality of the final product. For example, the application of structured water in agricultural irrigation can improve plant quality and reduce the need for pesticides.

The relationship between commitment to ESG and reducing the use of bottled water:

  1. Reducing the use of bottled water : One of the key issues in committing to an ESG strategy is reducing the organization's carbon footprint. The production and transportation of bottled water involves a lot of pollution and the use of huge amounts of plastic and energy. Therefore, organizations are looking for ways to reduce the use of bottled water and replace it with healthy water systems, such as structured water, in the workplace.

  2. Installation of healthy and structured water systems : in commitment to an ESG strategy, many organizations are looking to replace the use of bottled water with systems that allow employees access to high-quality, healthy water directly from the tap, using advanced technologies that enable water improvement (such as structured water). These systems reduce the need for bottled water, reduce the amount of plastic that is produced and improve the health of the workers.

Benefits for organizations from committing to structured water and reducing the use of bottled water:

  1. Financial savings : installing systems to create structured water can reduce costs in the long run by reducing the need to purchase bottled water.

  2. Employee health : Providing structured water to employees improves their health, which may lead to an increase in work productivity and a reduction in absenteeism due to illness.

  3. Environmental sustainability : reducing the use of bottled water and replacing it with structured water reduces the use of plastic and thus contributes significantly to protecting the environment.

  4. Positive public image : Companies that commit to the use of structured and sustainable water are seen as innovative and socially responsible, which strengthens their image with consumers, investors and business partners.

Organizations' commitment to using structured water and reducing the use of bottled water can be a model for sustainable processes, which positively affect both the environment and the health of employees, thus improving the ESG aspects of the organization.
