Preserving the planet
Our raw material comes from the Earth. It is therefore only natural for us to take action to ensure the respect of the planet.
At Ingredia, we want this environmental policy to be global, and we want it to be concrete at all levels of the value chain.
To achieve this, a progress plan was designed to measure our progress and to motivate future improvements in both the energy management of our dairy farms and the optimization of our industrial facilities’ impact all the way to the end consumer: optimization of the collection route, CO2 emissions reduction, water efficiency, waste management, recycling, etc.
It is united by this desire that Ingredia takes part in preserving our planet’s future.
Optimizing water resources
“Cow water” reuse
Osmosis
114% ratio of water extracted vs. volume withdrawn
direct pumping (Iso 14001)
Reducing our carbon footprint
Farm = By 2025, 100% of Cap2ER carried out on our farms
+ 230 tons of carbon stored per farm over 5 years
renewable energy thanks to biomass boiler (ISO 50001)
Respecting biodiversity
Differentiated farming: organic – HVE – regenerative = protein self-sufficiency – hedgerows – temporary meadows – GMO-free – crop rotationn self-sufficiency – hedges.
Bees- replanting
Recycling
of Ingredia’s waste is recycled
