Waters Corporation Named to Dow Jones Sustainability Index for the Fourth Consecutive Year
Waters recently highlighted its progress on reducing its environmental impact, becoming more representative of the society we live in, and continuing to enhance our long-term stakeholder value with good governance and effective oversight in its 2024 report. Waters has also committed to setting science-based emission reduction targets aligned with the Science Based Targets initiative's (SBTi) criteria for a 1.5°C future.
The Company continuously reiterates its commitment to improving the world through investing in initiatives that reduce the overall environmental footprint and positively impact the communities in which it works. After building the first and only Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)-certified chemical manufacturing facility in Massachusetts in 2022, the Company recently opened a 45,000 square foot manufacturing facility at the Longbridge Business Park in the West Midlands, UK . The building was constructed to BREEAM Very Good standard and achieved an Energy Performance Certificate rating of "A."
The DJSI is based on the completion of an annual evaluation of sustainability practices via the S&P Global CSA, that covers over 13,000 companies from around the world that are assessed on sustainability criteria that are both industry-specific and financially material.
