Based on the 1987 United Nations report on threats the human race could face due to its own actions, Waters embraces the following definition of Sustainability: “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
At Waters, our mission is to develop innovations and foster enduring partnerships that enable scientific and humanitarian advancements through the success of our customers.
