We are strongly committed to reducing our
environmental impact and helping to preserve
the natural environment. We are guided by the
precautionary principle and attempt to apply the
zero-loss mindset of our TPM system to produce a
closed loop approach. Our environmental management
is supported by Heineken - one of our brand owners.
With assistance from their team of environmental and
utility specialists, we set challenging improvement
targets to progressively reduce resource consumption,
emissions and discharges. We follow the Heineken
Utilities Benchmark Model, which is used by Heineken
Breweries around the world to identify the optimal
level of energy and water for breweries to operate.
Heineken also sends auditors annually to assess
progress.
Over the past year, we have engaged each operational
team to find solutions to meet our targets and
develop more efficient production methods. This has
resulted in a number of significant projects, including
an upgraded Economiser which increases energy
efficiency, a new Freon-free air-conditioning system
with no ozone-depletion and no global-warming
potential and a carbon dioxide plant which recovers
CO
2
from fermentation for use in bottling.
