BE WTR, a sustainable water company known for its premium offerings, has officially opened a fully automated circular bottling plant in Clichy, a suburb of Paris.


This facility aims to supply high-quality still and sparkling water to luxury hotels and gourmet restaurants in the city, aligning with the growing demand for environmentally friendly practices in the food and beverage industry.


The plant, which can produce up to 1,500 glass bottles per hour, uses electric vehicles for local distribution and implements a reusable bottle system that allows each bottle to be washed and reused up to 200 times. This initiative is part of BE WTR's broader strategy to reduce its environmental impact while catering to the upscale market.



“Paris is the tourist and gastronomy capital of the world,” said Mike Hecker, founder of BE WTR. “Offering a water product that complements the exceptional culinary experiences here, while also respecting the environment, is crucial. Our partnerships with iconic establishments, including luxury hotels within the Accor Group, highlight our commitment to quality and sustainability.”


The Paris facility marks BE WTR's third bottling site, following successful launches in Lausanne and Dubai. It is noteworthy for being the first site to receive certification from French water authorities.


With increasing consumer awareness around environmental issues, the demand for eco-friendly packaging and production methods is becoming a priority across the food and beverage sector.


BE WTR has plans for further expansion, with upcoming facilities set to open in Abu Dhabi, China and Canada. The company’s rapid growth reflects a larger trend within the industry as brands seek to innovate and adapt to changing consumer preferences.
