Water in our operations
Water is essential to Glanbia’s operations and to the communities in which we operate. Our 2025 target was to achieve a 10% freshwater withdrawal reduction. In 2025, we achieved a 9% reduction in freshwater withdrawal compared with our 2021 baseline. While this fell slightly short of our target, it represents strong progress driven by continued efficiency improvements.
2026 priorities
Our focus will continue to be informed by water risk assessments. We will expand the use of data driven monitoring, prioritise water recycling opportunities, invest in additional water savings technologies and share best practice across our wider network. In 2026 we intend to set a new ambition for water stewardship.
