However, as more water recycling facilities were installed across the group, we have had sufficient opportunity to evaluate the performance of the prototype recycling stations and apply targeted continuous improvement programmes.
Our manufacturing facility in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, is one such site which pioneered with an initial water recycling facility. Having continuously studied the recycling operations, together with the tracking of metering data, the team identified several areas to improve operational efficiency.
By improving existing structures and maintenance routines, the team achieved a 29% recycling rate in 2024. Through further investment in capacity, Ho Chi Minh expects to recycle in excess of 50% their water consumption by 2026; an equivalent of up to 613,000 litres of water recycled per day. And 224 million litres per annum.
