Helping reduce water use to increase environmental sustainability.

As a global leader in water solutions, Zurn Elkay Water Solutions’ environmental sustainability goals are top of mind every single day and in every aspect of our business. We’re inspired by the knowledge that our products protect the world’s most important natural resource — water — and in doing so, secure the safety and health of people and the planet.

Environmentally sustainable products

For our products, this means a relentless commitment to innovation and conservation. Zurn engineered products saved 34 billion gallons of water in 2021 and together with Elkay, we’re working to increase that figure to 40 billion gallons saved by 2024.

We’re members of the UN Global Compact (Zurn), Alliance for Water Stewardship (Zurn) and the Health Product Declaration® Collaborative (Elkay), have more than 500 products that carry U.S. EPA WaterSense certification, and supply products that support leading environmental standards including:

U.S. Green Building Council Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification
International WELL Building Institute’s WELL Building Standard
International Living Future Institute’s Living Building Challenge performance area for Materials

Our Environmental Management System helps us improve the sustainability of our operations by focusing on three fundamental environmental principles: protecting air, water and land.
