Being Green

Frito-Lay is committed to minimizing our environmental impact. That's why we have dedicated teams at all of our manufacturing facilities focused on reducing our consumption of electricity, fuels and water.


Our Commitment to Water
Since implementing water recycling and conservation efforts in 1999, we’ve reduced the amount of water we need to make our product by more than 1 billion gallons of water per year. Efforts like recycling the water used in making our potato and corn snacks have reduced the amount of fresh water used in these processes by 35% to 50%.
