Sustainability
At Best Ground, sustainability is more than just activities; it's our philosophy and an active commitment, an integral part of our identity. Every project and partnership reflects our dedication to creating a positive impact, not only in the industry but also on the planet.
From responsible agricultural practices and biodiversity conservation to innovations in sustainable production, we are committed to developing solutions that respect and enrich the natural environment.
At Best Ground, we are committed not only to sustainable production and the quality of our products but also to promoting and supporting education in sustainability.
That's why we are proud to be sponsors of BIOTU, an organization dedicated to sustainability education based in Mexico. BIOTU is distinguished for incorporating the ancestral knowledge of indigenous people.
The excellence and sustainability of our products are rooted in the heart of Mexico.
Owning and caring for these fields allows us to control the quality right from the start of our production chain and ensures that each step meets our strict standards of sustainability and organic practices.
Situated in these rich and fertile regions, our agave fields are the epicenter of our operations at Best Ground. Here, nature and meticulous care come together to cultivate the plants that are fundamental to our products. Each agave is grown with a deep respect for the environment, ensuring not only the purity and quality of the final product but also the preservation of the Mexican ecosystem.
Our commitment to the care and protection of the environment goes beyond our products; it extends to the core of our operations and business practices.
As part of our dedication to sustainability, we are proud to introduce our ReduC pet initiative, focused on reducing PET material in our packaging.
We understand that environmental responsibility is fundamental, and for this reason, we have taken significant steps to manufacture packaging that is fully recyclable. This action represents our ongoing effort to offer not only natural and high-quality ingredients but also packaging solutions that reflect our commitment to the conservation of the planet.
We understand the critical importance of water for our ecosystem and are deeply committed to its conservation. Our ZERO WATER WASTE program is a clear example of our environmental commitment, particularly in the efficient management of water in our agave fields. Here are the key steps of this program:
Efficient Water Use in Production:
To produce 1 kilo of Agave Syrup, it takes between 13 and 15 liters of water. This careful use of water is fundamental in our production process.
Water Reuse:
During the process, 40-50% of the water used evaporates and is reincorporated into the production cycle. This recycling method significantly reduces water waste.
Advanced Water Treatment:
The remaining water is sent to our treatment plant, where it remains for two days. Here, a physical-chemical and biological process is applied to effectively purify the water.
Responsible Water Reuse:
After this treatment, the water undergoes chlorination, complying with Mexican standards for wastewater discharge. Subsequently, this treated water is used for irrigating new plantings, thus closing the water use cycle sustainably.

Significant Environmental impact: With these practices, we manage to save
280,000 liters of water
per agave container processed. This saving represents a significant step towards our sustainability goal and respect for natural resources.
Best Ground's ZERO WATER WASTE program is not just an initiative; it's an ongoing commitment to sustainability and an example of how environmental responsibility is integrated into every aspect of our operations.
