Environment
Our mission is to deliver to you the finest tasting, natural artesian water with a commitment to do something great for the environment. We have partnered with each of our suppliers to become “carbon neutral” and we are also reducing the amount of packaging in our products and leading the charge to expand recycling programs and incentives.
The environment is a concern to all of us. From the very beginning, Virginia Artesian Bottling Company has conducted business in an environmentally responsible manner. We believe we can strengthen and expand our environmental leadership with a number of ambitious initiatives that will focus on greenhouse gas emissions, packaging, renewable energy and conservation efforts in Virginia.
Transportation
We take every measure to reduce our impact on the environment due to transportation. We are local to our customers which significantly reduce the carbon impact versus our competitors.
Because we bottle only in plastic, we are able to transport our water far more efficiently than if we used glass bottles. PET bottles require 24% less energy to produce, generate 40% less solid waste, and emit 46% less carbon during shipping than glass bottles.
