Recognizing the potential threat posed by a drop in groundwater levels, Mercator Medical is proactively implementing measures to secure a sustainable water supply for its operations. These include:

• Water Treatment Plant Investment: A strategic investment aims to reduce water demand by one-third for both factories, promoting efficiency and sustainability.
• Exploration of New Water Intakes: The company is actively searching for and opening new water intakes from deeper layers of the earth to ensure a reliable water supply.
• Water Conservation Projects: Initiatives are underway to minimize water losses in the production process and optimize water usage, contributing to sustainability goals.
• Rainwater Harvesting: Mercator Medical is actively working on harnessing rainwater, further reducing dependence on traditional water sources.
• Water Stress Survey: A comprehensive "water stress survey" is planned for production plants and suppliers to assess vulnerability to water-related challenges.
• Diversification of Water Intakes: Increasing the diversification of water sources is a strategic move to reduce the risk of potential supply interruptions, especially during dry seasons.
