As the water infrastructure industry intensifies its focus on sustainability,

selecting the right coatings and linings plays a critical role in reducing carbon

emissions throughout the asset lifecycle. This presentation explores a

comprehensive framework for evaluating and selecting protective systems that

align with environmental goals. We begin by defining sustainability in the

context of water infrastructure—highlighting its intersection with durability,

lifecycle performance, and environmental impact. Attendees will learn how to

assess supplier sustainability records, including transparency in sourcing,

manufacturing practices, and carbon footprint disclosures.
