Belu


COMPANY PROFILE

Belu was formed in response to a challenge set by the UN’s Global Compact, a movement to engage the business community in solving global social and environmental problems. Belu visited every natural mineral source in the UK to find the cleanest, freshest water. By sourcing its water in the UK, Belu minimises long-distance transportation and the related environmental impact.


PRODUCTS AND PARTICIPATION

Belu Mineral Water launched its compostable bottle in May 2006 and is the UK’s first bottle made from NatureWorks® alternative bio-plastic. The revolutionary “Bio-bottle” is the latest initiative from London-based Belu, an environmental initiative which contributes 100% of its net profits to clean water projects. Working with WaterAid, every bottle of water purchased in the UK provides someone in India or Africa with clean water for one month. KPMG has been authorized to verify Belu’s charitable donations.
