Accurate and Actionable Water Footprint Assessment

Our field visits, consumption evaluation and datasets help you confidently benchmark your Water use, and provide actionable insights for course corrections

Embrace Sustainability with Data-Driven Water Management

Water is a precious resource, and its responsible use is critical for our planet’s health and our future. AqVerium exists to positively incentivize water conservation and harvesting. We empower businesses with powerful and objective water footprint assessments.

What is a Water Footprint?

The water footprint measures the amount of water used to produce each of the goods and services we use. It can be measured for a single process, such as wet processing and fabric dyeing, or for a product, such as a pair of jeans, every litre of fuel we put in our car, operations of a building or for an entire multi-national company.

The water footprint when measured in cubic metres per tonne of production, per hectare of cropland, per unit of currency or in other functional units, becomes the Water Resources Efficiency Index. The water footprint helps us understand for what purposes our limited freshwater resources are being consumed and polluted.

Water footprint accounting

A comprehensive water footprint assessment requires defining the scope, including types of water footprints, supply chain depth, geographical scale, data timeframe, and direct vs. indirect water use. Addressing these ensures a robust analysis aligned with objectives.

Water footprint sustainability assessment

Choose between a geographic perspective, focusing on unsustainable areas, or a process/product/consumer perspective, which assesses production and usage impacts. Both require detailed analysis of water footprints, sustainability dimensions, and local impacts.

Compute Your Water Resource Efficiency Index

The WREI measures water efficiency by assessing water use per Business Activity Indicator (BAI) for specific operations. AqVerium is creating benchmarks across 13 industries, with the WREI score leading to your Water Sustainability Score (WSS).
