The need for global industry to reduce both water and chemical usage is frequently in the news. The food, chemical, petrochemical, primary metal and paper industries are among the world’s heaviest water users.

But pursuing greater sustainability in daily operations isn’t just good for the environment and for future generations. It can also have a significant positive impact on your bottom line.
