Carlsberg Group Commits to Halve Water Usage at Its Breweries by 2030
Water is essential to society, and to making beer. However, today it is not managed optimally in too many areas of the world, and water scarcity is a major concern.
The Carlsberg Group’s vision for a better tomorrow is a world in which zero water is wasted.
In pursuit of this vision, Carlsberg has developed bold targets – including halving water usage at its breweries by 2030. Carlsberg will also form partnerships to safeguard shared water resources in high-risk areas around selected breweries, identified together with WWF.
Carlsberg Group targets
2030
- 50% reduction in water usage at its breweries
- Partner to safeguard shared water resources in high-risk areas
2022
- 25% reduction in water usage at its breweries
- Explore going below 2.0 hl/hl at all high-risk breweries
- Partner to safeguard shared water resources in high-risk areas
The targets are part of the Carlsberg Group’s new sustainability programme, Together Towards ZERO – which states the brewer’s ambitions and targets towards 2022 and 2030.
