It resulted in a nomination of 14 companies and communities for their achievements in tackling the ecological and social challenges of the future.

Grohe not only operates a resource management system at all production sites, but has developed products which are water and energy-saving, including EcoJoy which is designed to consumer up to 50% lower water than standard. In addition, the judges particularly likes the Grohe Blue water system, which supplies chilled and filtered water,with a carbon footprint below that of bottled water.

Chief sales office at Grohe, Michael Rauterkus commented: “Our company is commited to promoting pure water enjoyment.” He continued: “For us, this also means that we bear a great responsibility for this unique natural resource. When taking decisions, we are very much aware of the sustainability implications and this awareness of sustainability is shared by all our employees.

“Being nominated for the Resource Efficiency award is an invaluable confirmation of our efforts and our products. At the same time, this nomination will inspire us to live up to the high expectations associated with such an accolade also in the future.”
