Carlsberg Brtivic understands the intrinsic links between healthy water systems and a finished product for our consumers to enjoy. By supporting the Chellow Dene project, we have helped restore the wetland, which is less than 10 miles away from our Leeds factory. We look forward to continuing our water stewardship journey which forms a key part of our sustainability strategy.
