Yvonne Orgill said: “2025 will be a significant year for water. The need for water efficiency is higher on the agenda than ever before across Europe. This is evidenced by the appointment of the first EU Commissioner for water resilience Jessika Roswall, and the recent call from The European Commission to seek input from stakeholders in designing the future European Water Resilience Strategy.
“Industry has demonstrated its commitment by offering innovative products that use less water and associated energy.
“With support from all parties we can work together to make a self-regulatory label the solution.”
