This diagram represents the Preserving Water Resources on Operated Sites.
As part of its EHS policy to reduce water consumption, L’Oréal has implemented a multidisciplinary approach to preserve water resources at its production sites. This strategy is built on three key actions:
- Mapping Water Use. Utilizes the internal Waterscan Tool to assess and optimize water use at production sites.
- Installing Equipment and Processes for Reduction. Includes initiatives such as the OPTImisation Cleaning in Place (OPTICIP) method developed by L’Oréal to optimize the cleaning of industrial equipment, a major source of water use.
- Reusing Industrial Water. Based on the Waterloop concept, which processes and reuses industrial water for internal use.
