Alignment of Alton’s Activities with SDGs

🎯 Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation

Alton products such as the Smart Valve Controller, pressure and level transmitters, and telemetry panels help reduce water losses, manage network pressure, and ensure fair water distribution. These actions directly support sustainable access to clean water for all.
