Sustainability
Sustainability is at the core of our DNA
Corporate sustainability is an increasingly topical issue in our society. That's why at Belourthe, we've implemented a number of actions to meet our commitment to more sustainable food and practices.
Sustainable raw material sourcing
At the heart of our commitment to sustainability lies a profound dedication to responsible raw material sourcing. We place a premium on short circuits, collaborating closely with local producers to stimulate economic activity within the European Union. Our contribution to the evolution towards more environmentally friendly consumption is a guiding principle that drives our every decision.
By adhering to these guiding principles, we endeavor to create a positive impact on the environment and the community. Our company's unwavering commitment to sustainable practices is not only reflected in our sourcing strategies but also extends to every aspect of our operations. Together, we embrace the responsibility of safeguarding our planet's resources and promoting a greener, more sustainable future for all.
Our eco-friendly initiatives
We are committed to reducing our environmental footprint, and are constantly looking for innovative solutions to reduce it and protect our ecosystem.
- By installing 906 solar panels on our roofs, we aim to generate our own electricity and reduce our carbon footprint.
- In addition, we also chose to switch to natural gas as part of our energy transition, providing a clean and convenient option for our day-to-day energy needs.
- Our waste water treatment plant is designed to effectively treat our company's waste water, ensuring clean, safe water for the environment.
- We are committed to recycling our waste. Waste usually destined for landfill incineration is transformed into reusable resources, or livestock feed, thus preserving natural resources and reducing pollution.
- We seek to save energy by combining LEDs and motion detectors in the majority of our premises, and by adopting an adapted closing program at the end of each weekend.
Free rail travel for all employees
As part of our steadfast commitment to sustainability, we proudly provide free rail travel to all our employees who choose this eco-friendly means of transportation. By offering this benefit, we not only make it convenient for our staff to commute but also actively encourage the adoption of greener transportation options. This initiative aligns with our vision of promoting sustainable practices both within our organization and the broader community, fostering a cleaner, greener future for all.
Eco-friendly packaging: our sustainable solution
Continuing our unwavering dedication to sustainability and environmental preservation, we are thrilled to unveil our latest eco-designed packaging for our products. Embracing sustainable materials and waste optimization, these new packaging solutions reflect our deep-rooted commitment to minimizing our ecological impact. By integrating eco-friendly practices into our packaging, we strive to contribute positively to the environment and inspire others to join us in this crucial endeavor towards a greener, more sustainable future.
Empowering sustainability through education and collaboration
At the core of our mission for a more sustainable future lies the belief that education and awareness are paramount. Together, we can shape decisions that positively impact our planet. Our initiatives center on fostering knowledge and collaboration:
- Nurturing the Next Generation: Our internship programs offer invaluable practical experiences to aspiring students, providing diverse perspectives and insights into cutting-edge trends and technologies. These emerging talents help us stay current and embrace novel approaches to meet evolving challenges in our industry.
- Open Doors, Building Trust: Inviting visitors to our production facilities through factory visits allows us to showcase our transparent production processes, introduce our dedicated team, and illustrate our commitments. These interactions strengthen the trust you place in our brand.
- Embracing Innovation and Partnership: Actively participating in trade-show events not only allows us to stay abreast of the latest trends but also fosters collaborations and mutual support within our industry. We embrace the power of teamwork to drive innovation and make a meaningful impact on sustainability.
Through education, open dialogue, and collective efforts, we aim to pave the way for a brighter, more sustainable future, preserving our environment for generations to come.
