MADE BLUE matches the water saved by companies, products or services by creating equal amounts of clean water: 1 litre for 1 litre.
Water needed for creating products such as soap, clothing or a cappuccino and for realizing services such as cleaning or events is made available in developing countries.
Select a product or service from your portfolio and (ask us to help) calculate the amount of water that is saved (or used) with producing or using the product or service.
We calculate the required donation needed to convert those litres into as many litres of clean drinking water in developing countries with a permanent water shortage.
You will receive a certificate corresponding with the amount of clean drinking water delivered on your behalf elsewhere on the planet and we will share regular updates on the progress of our work in African and Asian countries.
We are happy to help you communicate your impact with MADE BLUE to your colleagues and stakeholders and continuously provide (graphic) updates, short films and, for example, sub certificates to hand out to your clients.
Everybody using your products and/or services will contribute to a better world, effortless and with a smile.
We promise to deliver at least one thousand litres of clean water in developing countries for every €0,30 donated to MADE BLUE and we will do so within projects that we are sure will continue to last for over 10 years.
‘A litre for a litre’ is about real and measurable impact in developing countries, linked directly to your sustainability efforts and water footprint.

That is why we mirror the water consumption of the production and consumption of all our drinks in the more than 70 locations at Schiphol. “
