US denim brand AG is taking steps to plug the leak, installing state-of-the-art equipment in its LA and Mexico factories to ensure that 100 per cent of its water is recycled during production. Now only 1,200 gallons of water are lost per day due to evaportation or spillage, reports Laura Hawkins for Wallpaper.
In its bid to deliver thrills not spills, AG has also partnered with Boxed Water, the first national brand to offer a sustainable alternative to plastic bottles. This move will ensure that the label saves 73,000 plastic water bottles per year.
