INFOGRAPHIC: Why Saving Water Matters - and How it Adds Up
Whirlpool initiatives save millions of gallons of water each year
Whirlpool has been firmly committed to reducing the human impact on the environment since officially incorporating sustainability initiatives into the company’s business strategy in 1969. In 1970, Whirlpool established its own Office of Environmental Control to develop more efficient products for consumers, develop more efficient manufacturing practices, and work with outside stakeholders on environmental and social responsibility. As a result, the appliances we make today are more energy efficient than those made just one year ago and initiatives at our manufacturing facilities located around the world have helped save millions of gallons of water. In product and practice, our home appliances are made with saving our planet’s vital resources for generations to come.
