Water Stewardship Through Uncompromising Design
- Share:
As a global leader in plumbing innovation, Kohler is uniquely positioned to transform the way the world experiences water. With that in mind, we have introduced our water ambition to the world:
Water Stewardship Through Uncompromising Design.
Water is essential to life and core to what we do at Kohler. We are innovating to enable and preserve access to clean and efficient water experiences for all, now and for generations to come.
Through thoughtful design, engineering, and a steadfast commitment to sustainability, we continue to build on the momentum that this ambition has built.
Living Our Water Ambition
Water gives life. We protect it.
In Monterrey, Mexico, Kohler’s Sanimex team is turning water stewardship into action—restoring watersheds, harvesting rainwater for schools, and recycling water in operations. See how our commitment to innovation and conservation is creating lasting impact, from source to tap.
Innovating New Ways to Save in the Home
In 2024, the 50L Home Coalition, of which Kohler is a founding member, completed its phase-two trial and found that the home retrofitted with water-efficient faucets, fixtures, and appliances used 21% less water than the control homes, on average.
