Our approach to
Sustainability at our core
As the world evolves, so does our dedication to shaping a more sustainable future. Our sustainability report outlines the pillars and meaningful commitments aligned with UN Sustainable Development that help us deliver the exceptional quality and experience you deserve.
Zip has earned a Silver sustainability rating from EcoVadis, placing us in the top 15% globally for our performance in environment, ethics, human rights, and sustainable procurement—reflecting our strong sustainability integration and commitment to continuous improvement.
For 75 years, we’ve refined our technology to eliminate hazardous substances, impurities, and harmful contaminants from global water supplies, helping more experience water at its best.
Our products have delivered great-tasting water to more than six million homes and 2.5 million offices across the world. As we continue to grow, we’ll make sure we’re doing so in a sustainable way.
Our Commitment
In 2022, we updated our Environmental Product Declaration (EDP) for HydroTap to reflect our commitment to people and planet.
Internationally recognised and independently verified, our EPD details the impact of HydroTap across its entire lifecycle – from its raw materials right through to its recycling at end-of-life.
Join the refill revolution
Did you know Zip Water products contribute to saving more than two billion single-use plastics from landfill every year?
Great-tasting water encourages employees to refill cups and bottles, rather than resorting to single-use plastic. Join the refill revolution.
