At GAB, we believe in minimising the impact of our
operations on the environment by setting challenging
improvement targets and implementing various
energy saving initiatives to progressively reduce our
carbon footprint.
We are conscious that a sustainable enterprise is
one that contributes to sustainable development
by simultaneously delivering economic, social, and
environmental benefits; also referred to as the triple
bottom line.
We are committed to improving our environmental
performance through the implementation of sound
and sustainable environmental practices that are
entrenched within our business model and ethos.
Great emphasis is placed on sustainable competencies,
which stems from the search for clean technologies.
We also believe that it is critical that we uphold the
sustainable growth of natural resources and habitats,
local flora and fauna, biodiversity and climate within
the surroundings that we operate in. To achieve
this, we have adopted a systematic approach to
environmental management which is designed to
ensure compliance with government legislation,
international protocols and global best practices.
For the year under review, we are proud to report that
our new and upgraded Economisers, Air-Conditioning
system and carbon dioxide (CO ² ) plant have been

efficiency while reducing the impact on the
