The reduction was achieved since the company was able to identify new way to save and plug leakages with the installation of innovative technology.

These innovative meters have helped to identify areas of unaccounted water consumption, leading to significant water savings. As part of its sustainability initiatives, MIAL successfully implemented several measures over the last year.
