Responsible business conduct is the foundation of our success—shaping how we operate, innovate, and serve our stakeholders.
We act with integrity, minimize our environmental footprint, continuously improve product quality, protect health and safety, support employee well-being, and cultivate an inclusive workplace where everyone feels a true sense of belonging.
This commitment extends across our supply chain. To foster safe and healthy working conditions, uphold fair labor practices, and strengthen our sustainability efforts, we continue to expand and enhance our partnerships with suppliers.

2025 Sustainability Goals
To reinforce our commitment to environmental and social responsibility, we set comprehensive and ambitious goals in 2019 to guide our focus and resources through 2025.
Operations
By the end of 2024, 19 of our 21 major facilities had achieved at least one of the following goals: 100% process water recycling, zero waste to landfill, and 100% renewable energy. Of these, 16 major facilities had met all three goals.
Supply Chain
In 2024, we implemented our 2025 Company Sustainability Goals for the supply chain into the legacy Evoqua business. As a result, the percentage of total spend appears lower compared to previous years. However, we continue to make progress toward achieving all our goals. We also made notable improvements in our supplier disclosures and scores through CDP and EcoVadis and are proud of our suppliers’ participation in the WASH4Work commitment, a key element of our social impact strategy. Additionally, we engaged with our suppliers in more than 100 Watermark events throughout the year.
