GWS Contributions to Sustainability

Here are a couple ways we are making a difference.

EcoVadis Silver Medal: We are in the top 15% of the most sustainable companies as measured by one of the industry’s top sustainability assessors.
Eco-Friendly Packaging: Our carton packaging incorporates 60% recycled cardboard across several facilities, helping to reduce waste and promote material reuse. This initiative is part of our commitment to environmental responsibility in our packaging processes.
Sustainable Procurement Practices: We are dedicated to sustainable procurement across all our operations. Our approach includes adhering to stringent regulations, reducing carbon emissions, evaluating the life-cycle costs of products, ensuring supplier health and safety, supporting human rights, and fostering continuous improvement through ongoing dialogue with our suppliers.
Renewable Energy Initiatives: We have installed over 700 solar panels at select facilities, which collectively generate approximately 650,000 kWh of renewable electricity. These installations have helped us significantly reduce CO2 emissions by more than 405,000 kg, reinforcing our commitment to clean energy and environmental sustainability.
Certified Sustainable Operations: We have achieved ISO14001 and ISO45001 certifications, recognizing our dedication to environmental management and occupational health and safety. We are actively working to extend these certifications to all our production sites, ensuring consistent sustainability standards across our global operations.

How We Promote a Healthier Environment Through Our Products

Advanced Water Filtration: The AquaWave™ Classic Reverse Osmosis System uses a multi-stage filtration process to produce purified tap water, offering a sustainable alternative to bottled water and helping reduce your carbon footprint.
Efficient Water Treatment: Our OneStop+™ Anti-Scale Solution effectively reduces scaling in boilers and water heaters by converting limescale into harmless crystals. This process enhances the efficiency of these appliances, leading to reduced energy consumption and long-term savings. By eliminating the need for salt and preventing heavy metal contamination, our solution promotes sustainable water usage.
Innovative Water Solutions: Our Quatreau® tap and bottling systems are designed for low energy consumption, reducing the need for bottled water and thereby cutting down on plastic waste and food miles. The Quatreau TouchTap™ dispenses boiling, chilled, hot, cold, and sparkling water at preset temperatures, saving water and energy.
Reliable Pressure Control: Our high-quality pressure tanks are designed to minimize pump starts, enhancing energy efficiency and extending the life of water systems. By maintaining consistent water pressure, these versatile tanks help reduce energy consumption and support sustainable water management across a wide range of applications, from irrigation systems to booster systems and beyond.
Water Conservation Efficiency: Our expansion tanks are designed to conserve water by preventing the discharge of small amounts of expanded water during heating cycles. This innovative solution ensures that your water heater operates more efficiently, reducing water waste and supporting sustainable water usage.
