Planeta Azul, a living planet
Our commitment to the environment
We believe in a sustainable and environmentally friendly planet. A planet where the resources for life are protected and within the reach of all human beings. We know that water is an essential resource for life, but that it is also an endangered resource.
Although water is a common element on Earth, only 2.53% of its total is freshwater. For this reason, at Agua Planeta Azul we promote practices for the responsible use of water in our industrial processes and when bottling the liquid in its different presentations.
In addition to reducing water losses, the company carries out various activities with its employees to raise environmental awareness, including beach clean-up days and information campaigns.
