Our Focus on Sustainability
Niagara is committed to responsible resource usage and integrating sustainability into every aspect of our business. Niagara not only supports environmental initiatives, but innovation and leadership in their product, packaging, manufacturing, while promoting consumer awareness and action on sustainability issues. Here’s how Niagara is prioritizing sustainability:
- Water Stewardship: A standard Niagara facility uses less water to produce its products than it takes to keep a few golf courses green. Niagara typically pays volumetric fees for the water it uses and millions in taxes and fees to municipal systems that enable them to maintain and improve their infrastructure.
- Packaging Efficiency: Niagara uses less plastic for its bottles than its competitors, and innovations such as lightweight shrink film and corrugate-free nested packs create reductions in CO2 across our product lifecycle.
- Minimizing Environmental Impact: Niagara PET bottles have a lower environmental impact across most impact categories when compared to other common beverage and water packaging types. Our half liter bottles have an embodied carbon footprint that is substantially below the U.S. average.
- Recycling Infrastructure and Education: Niagara supports recycling education through International Bottled Water Association’s “Put it in the Bin” campaign.
Contact Our Economic Development Team
Our team’s mission is to promote and advance the strategic goals of the company through relationship building and engagement with public policy makers, government officials and community leaders.
