Over the 2021–2025 Sustainability Roadmap period, we implemented our approach to water stewardship across manufacturing operations. Early efforts focused on improving efficiency through targeted initiatives, while later years emphasized embedding water management practices into routine plant operations supported by clearer monitoring and operational controls.
At the same time, water consumption and discharge were monitored in accordance with regulatory requirements, while wastewater treatment systems continued to operate across sites, supported by routine inspections and maintenance activities. Where monitoring identified performance gaps or inefficiencies, corrective actions were implemented during the year.
By 2025, water stewardship efforts continued across manufacturing sites, focusing on process improvements, strengthened leak detection, and expanded water reuse where technically feasible. These measures were integrated into daily plant activities rather than implemented as isolated projects. Wastewater treatment systems operated across sites in accordance with regulatory requirements, supported by routine inspections, preventive maintenance, and regular review of discharge parameters. Monitoring data were used to identify opportunities for system optimization and guide timely corrective actions.
Experience during the roadmap period reinforced that effective water stewardship outcomes depend on site-specific conditions and operational discipline. Monitoring improvements enabled earlier identification of inefficiencies and more timely corrective action. These insights informed refinements to plant-level management practices during 2025.
