Measures already taken

In 2003, La Posta del Águila performed a study with the aim to establish not only different methods to efficiently accomplish the directives and practices on the environment but also environmental health and safety regulations. The study comprised the following specific criteria: Energy use, acquisition hiring practices, office supplies personnel health, noise, aesthetic values and landscape.
As a result of this study, administrative procedures were developed and many recommendations, some which were immediately implemented, were performed.


In order to measure Seductive mineral water bottles ´carbon footprint, our technicians calculated the carbon footprint as follows:

• They designed a map for the different stages Seductive Mineral Water goes starting from the company that manufactures the bottle up to our Premium Mineral Water bottling.

• They analyzed the energy use directly involved in the different stages and in turn they calculated the quantity of carbon emission.

• They developed a program of adequate practices to prepare and make the staff conscious about carbon footprint.

• They calculated the transport oil consumption to optimize transportation.

• They added up the quantity of carbon emission found in each stage to get the final value.

The carbon footprint final value is 9.35g

The chart on this page exactly shows the percentage of our carbon footprint in each stage:




  1. Our raw material: Bottles and cartons

  2. Manufacturing: Treatment and mineral water bottling

  3. Packaging: Packaging of our Seductive mineral water bottles

  4. Distribution: Transportation of our containers to the Port so our product is delivered by boat and not by plane.

  5. Disposition: Disposition of bottles and of empty boxes





This calculation is based only on current operations and available data. As new information arises, we will improve our environmental operation with the aim at reducing our carbon emission.
