COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY About us >> Commitment COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY Our aim is to offer practical and innovative frozen vegetable solutions that contribute to healthy, safe, convenient and sustainable food both in the professional and home environment. We seek progress and sustainable development, with commitments in the areas of social, economic and environmental responsibility, creating value for all our stakeholders, from farmers, through employees and finally to the consumer. THEREFORE, OUR COMMITMENT IS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING POINTS: ENERGY SAVING AND RENEWABLE ENERGIES Activation of a business plan for the progressive implementation of renewable energy. In addition, our production plants have been designed and built with highly insulating materials to save energy and maintain optimal temperatures. WATER REUSE The clearest example of this is the construction of our own water treatment plants. Our latest treatment plant is equipped with the most advanced technology, which cleans 100% of the factory's wastewater. The anaerobic reactor of the treatment plant produces biogas that will be used for energy production in other processes. In addition, the use of recirculated water is optimised throughout the production process, avoiding unnecessary losses. REUSE OF WASTE The waste or leftovers from our vegetables are used as feed for livestock in our area or for the generation of biogas. In this way, we reduce or minimise the impact of waste on our surroundings and the environment. CARDBOARD AND PLASTIC RECYCLING We recycle all cardboard and plastic generated at our production sites. We offer packaging solutions that minimise environmental impact, such as compostable or lighter alternatives. We are constantly researching new packaging solutions that reduce plastic consumption per kilogram (kg) of production. CLEAN INDUSTRY We are a clean industry by nature. All our cultivation fields contribute to the absorption of CO2 and therefore to the reduction of greenhouse gases. In addition, our fields are next to our factories, the raw material is a local product and there is hardly any impact from transport. The manufacturing process, as well as being fast, is clean, the waste is used for livestock and the water is purified for other uses. HUMAN CAPITAL ALL THE PEOPLE COUNT Our main asset is the people who work with us, which is why at Fruveco we help them to grow professionally, training them and helping them, as far as possible, to reconcile work and personal life. Thus, we develop compensation and benefits policies, flexible remuneration, and work-life balance. OUR FARMERS We work together with the farmers, monitoring and providing advice and technical resources throughout the entire cultivation process, from the selection of the land and seeds to the harvest itself. The more than 30 years of experience of all our professionals, working side by side, is a very important factor in obtaining the best vegetables in our area. © 2021 FRUVECO, S.A.
