ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE :
CREATING SUSTAINABLE IMPROVEMENT
Environmental Performance
We are asked to meet challenging environmental
annual reduction targets by one of our brand owners,
Heineken. Using their Utilities Benchmark models, our
Key Performance Index (KPI) and size of our business
corresponds to our overall contribution. At our monthly
driving systems meeting, we discuss detailed action plans
for meeting our KPIs. For each KPI identified, we have a
reference library of solutions and potential savings. We
have also developed complex action sheets, with dates of
implementation and deployment plans. As we improve our
processes, we gain an understanding of the different areas
and activities we can tweak to generate more savings.
These savings are translated into monetary terms which are
then displayed prominently in our Supply Chain department.
Up to 30% of our savings is reinvested to drive improvements
in our environmental performance. Additionally, our selected
environmental champions attend two annual regional
workshops to exchange ideas with colleagues in other
markets.
Prior to FY12, we were declaring
our gas consumption based on
our own gas meter. Readings were
systematically below the readings
from Gas Malaysia’s meter that is
used for invoicing purposes. As a
result, our declared gas consumption
was 5% – 8% lower than the real
quantity paid for. We then decided to
go for compliance with the rule saying
one should declare “what he pays” and
re-adjusted our targets for FY13. This
translated into an apparent increase
between FY11 and FY12.
All our water is drawn from a
municipal water supply. We use just
over 5.8 million hl of water annually
in the manufacturing of our products.
Our baseline was 4.73 hl/hl and we
were given a year-on-year reduction
target of 9% for FY13, of which we
achieved 4%. Over the past five years,
we have successfully achieved a 10%
reduction in water usage.
All electricity is purchased from the
national grid. We use a total of
13.6 million kWh of electricity annually
in manufacturing our products. Our
baseline was 11.12 kWh/hl and we
were given a year-on-year reduction
target of 6% for FY13, however we only
achieved a 4% reduction. Regardless
of this, we have still managed to
achieve a 13.9% reduction in electricity
usage over the past five years.

We want to ensure that we
can continue to grow our
business without increasing
the strain on our natural
resources, primarily water,
electricity and thermal
energy. In this regard, we
focus on compliance with
local legislation, investment
in innovation and the
upgrading of our brewery.
