The Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) has announced a landmark partnership naming Pentair plc as the official water sponsor of Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP). This collaboration introduces an innovative initiative that delivers 10 new HOPE Hydration HydroStations to the airport, marking the first installation of such water refill stations at any airport globally.
Located strategically across both terminals of MSP Airport, the HydroStations offer travelers free access to chilled and filtered water in various concourses and high-traffic areas. Equipped with advanced technology, the HydroStations at MSP Airport track real-time data to quantify the environmental impact achieved through reduced single-use plastics and lowered carbon emissions, delivering this information to passengers as they refill.
“As frequent travelers, we understand the need for great hydration solutions in airports, and we are thrilled to help travelers make a positive environmental impact,” said Jorge Richardson, HOPE Hydration CEO and Founder.
