Today, a commitment to preserving our ecosystem requires prioritizing the reduction of plastic pollution and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in our households. In this context, managing waste related to current consumption patterns represents a major challenge. Shifting our daily habits towards sustainable and circular solutions is now a key lever for fulfilling this ecological responsibility and limiting our overall environmental footprint.
The equivalent of 170 cans thanks to 1 reusable cylinder
Making your own sparkling water at home allows you to use tap water and eliminate unnecessary transportation associated with commercial bottles. A single cylinder can produce up to 60 L of water, which is equivalent to approximately 170 cans.
- Did you know? Our cylinders are extremely durable and can be reused for 30 to 40 years. Reusing your cylinder is even better than recycling.
Indigo Soda's Commitment to Mission 1000 Tonnes
Twice a year, our entire team participates in a major shoreline cleanup with Mission 1000 Tonnes, of which we are the main partner for the plastic offsetting program. This collaboration supports waterway cleanups and protects local biodiversity.
Indigo Soda's Commitment to Arbre-Évolution
In parallel, we finance tree planting through Arbre-Évolution to offset our GHG emissions. This is a long-term vision in which Indigo Soda is investing.
In 2025, the team also took part in a planting day in Mirabel, where 215 trees and shrubs were planted as part of social reforestation and riparian carbon programs.
A greener and more practical alternative
In addition to being a Canadian brand committed to offering a greener alternative, our products are compatible with several machines you may already have in your kitchen, thus facilitating the transition to a more sustainable exchange model.

- Supporting the local economy
- Acting at our level to combat climate change
- Achieving significant savings on every litre of sparkling water

How does Indigo Soda concretely reduce its environmental impact?
Indigo Soda minimizes its ecological footprint through a three-pronged strategy:
- Source reduction: The use of refillable CO₂ cylinders eliminates the need for single-use bottles.

- Regional engagement: Direct support for local Quebec initiatives strengthens social and environmental impact.
- This synergy between the circular economy and carbon offsetting ensures a sustainable and concrete approach.
