Water dependencyVery Low
Prologis, Inc. (NYSE: PLD) is a global leader in logistics real estate development, acquisition, and management. While water is not a large input to its core logistics business, it still plays a role in the company's operations. Prologis describes a typical logistics facility as having minimal impact on water availability, meaning its direct water considerations primarily relate to landscaping, plumbing, stormwater, and building operations.
Prologis integrates water efficiency into new developments through water-efficient landscaping and native plants, captured rainwater, low-flow plumbing fixtures, and intelligent pump systems that monitor water temperature, pump activity, and leaks. In 2025, nearly 40% of the developments that earned LEED v4 certification incorporated water-efficiency features, resulting in a modeled 80% reduction in potable water demand.
The company also incorporates stormwater management into site design and construction, seeking to reduce runoff in accordance with regulations and civil engineering standards. These considerations are particularly relevant to a company with a significant warehouse footprint, where extensive roofs, paved areas, and landscaping can affect onsite runoff despite relatively low direct water dependence.
