What is New York Spring Water, Inc. doing to help reduce the amount of plastic going into our landfills?
A. New York Spring Water, Inc. is aware that the amount of plastic, including water bottles, going into landfills is far outpacing the ability to recycle. With a corporate commitment to GO GREEN, we developed a package using considerably less plastic than a regular bottle of water. Cup-a-Water was launched in September. When the convenience of a typical bottle is not needed, the Cup-a-Water package is perfect. It is still our great Natural Spring Water in a more compact and environmentally friendly package. And you can have it shipped directly to your home from this website.
