Although Logoplaste’s operations are not water-intensive – water is mainly used for cooling purposes in a closed-loop, cleaning activities and welfare - we should continuously monitor and take actions to reduce the amount of water we use and manage it responsibly in our operations, even where water is currently plentiful.
