The Company 2000 2007 2008 2009 2010 takes water conservation to heart, leaving no stone Prod.Volume Total Water Withdrawal Rate Total Water Discharge Rate unturned in finding ways to minimize and optimize consumption, treat wastewater, and protect water sources. Optimizing Water Consumption All Nestlé worksites employ various means to use water efficiently, ever pressed to reduce consumption while increasing production. Workers are greatly involved not only in implementing water-conservation practices but more so in thinking of ways to conserve water at their level, since they are the ones who know best the conditions within which they do their job. Water-conserving ideas are thus aplenty in the worksites — mostly simple practices that cost little spending but cause a lot of savings. Among these are: • Reuse of sealing water from vacuum pumps, where the water is recirculated and used all over again as sealing water for the same vacuum pumps • Recirculation of cooling water instead of being immediately discharged to waste • Reuse of water from Reverse Osmosis plants for such purposes as flushing of toilets • Reuse of the final rinsing water during cleaning-in-place (CIP) of process equipment as initial rinsing water for the next CIP • Reuse of effluent for irrigation of plants and grass inside factory premises • Use of automatic washer for the cleaning dryer, which regulates volume of water used to clean the dryer • Insulation of steam valves and leak management • Use of sensor-operated faucets, which ensures automatic stoppage of water flow as soon as faucet use is done • Throttling of supply valve to regulate water flow • Installation of cistern tanks to collect rainwater • Use of waterless urinals Reverse Osmosis Plants 55.01% -35.87%
Waste Waste Treatment Plants All these water-saving initiatives have reduced water consumption throughout Nestlé Philippines by 41% since 2006, or an average of 170,000 cubic meters of water every year. In 2010, water consumption further dropped by 20%. Water dropped to 7.21 m 3/t from 9.01 in 2009. Treating Wastewater Nestlé operates world-class wastewater treatment plants in all its factories and distribution centers to make sure that every drop of water used is cleansed of impurities before being released to natural waterways. Industrial wastewater is treated separately from domestic waste to produce cleaner effluent and ensure absence of the bacteria that characterize the domestic kind. Treated water from Nestlé sites is constantly tested and known to meet, and often exceed, strict government standards. Nestlé-treated water is clean enough to sustain marine life, as evidenced in koi or tilapia fishponds in all factories, which get water solely from the treatment plants. Preserving Water Sources Nestlé keeps a caring eye for rivers and creeks that run through the communities where it operates. Through community outreach programs, the sites organize regular clean-up activities in areas surrounding the water sources and waterways. The Cagayan de Oro Factory, in particular, makes it a point to clean the Umalag River of algae, cut grasses near the river, and rid the area of scattered trash. The factory has hired a contractor to do this every month. Employees and barangay residents of Tablon do their share in cleaning up the river environs every quarter. Cagayan Distribution Center has mobilized employees, local residents and students to clean up the coastal area in Barangay Casinglot. 22
