It can contribute to the identification of water risks in a company’s operations and supply chain, and help a company to develop good water stewardship practice.
Water savings can be achieved in industries through a combination of process improvement, process modification, changing use profile, modification of replacement of equipment, the introduction of measurement & monitoring devises and many other means. The ultimate target is to reduce overall water consumption and increase internal reuse and enhance the recharging process.
To optimise water and minimise costs, it is important to assess current water use and set goals. Reducing industrial water consumption is a means of addressing the global water crisis and supports the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)
REDUCE | REUSE | RECYCLE

Some more answers to your questions – FAQ
What is Water Footprint or Water Footprinting?
The water footprint with respect to organisation and business is the amount of water used (consumed and polluted) to produce each unit of the goods and services they offer.
It can be measured for a single process, such as growing sugarcane or making sugar, for a product, such as a bottle of fruit juice, or for an entire organisation in totality.
In a broader perspective, the footprint can also depict how much water is being consumed by a particular country or region or across the globe.
The concept of foot printing of water was developed to improve water management at the global level. Be it of individual, community or business, foot print is an indicator of water load on the environment by a business.
There are various types of water footprint assessment which includes Product Footprint, Organisational Footprint etc.

What is Company Water stewardship?
Organisations worldwide are recognising that water is an essential ingredient in their business operations. Lack of access to sufficient water quantities or quality poses a material risk to a growing number of companies.
Water stewardship is a way an organisation can manage the complexities of balancing their own water use with the needs of society, communities and natural habitats.
Good water stewards understand their own water use, catchment context and shared risk in terms of water governance, water balance, water quality and important water-related areas.
They engage in planned and meaningful actions that improve the situation.
Becoming a water steward allows companies to understand all their water related risks – physical, reputational, financial and regulatory. Thus, they are able to plan and implement strategies to minimise those risks and promote the business’s long-term sustainability.
Consultivo being one of the practicing Water Footprint Consultants in India, helps organisations to promote water stewardship.
