As part of CCEP’s This is Forward Sustainability Action Plan, we have a target to reduce our total water use by 20% from a 2010 baseline by 2025. We measure this reduction through our water use ratio (the ratio of water used per litre of product produced). In 2017, our water use ratio was 1.61, a reduction of 11.78% vs 2010. To support this commitment, we operate company-wide water monitoring. Site targets are set annually and reduction options are identified, modelled and reviewed by senior CCEP Supply Chain function management, and investment allocated accordingly. In 2017, we invested €490,000 in new technologies and processes to make our plants more water-efficient, resulting in water savings of 4,648 m3 in 2017. Identifying water efficiency opportunities within our manufacturing plants and the investments we make in technologies to reduce water use allows us to mitigate potential risks and reduce input costs.
