DAILY PASSION

SUSTAINABLE
PRODUCTION

Our production chain follows processes and rules that allow us to call ourselves sustainable.

 

We design everything to minimise the impact we might have on nature, from energy production to water management.

OUR KNOW-HOW

We represent a European Center of Excellence for Plant-based Drinks Research and Development, a true reference point for the entire Ecotone Group in the category.

In our Italian sites in Badia Polesine (RO) and Viadana (MN), we develop recipes from a wide range of ingredients and produce them according to proven methods that maximise their quality profile.

 

We design each phase of our supply chain to offer a wide range of opportunities to respond to the needs of customers or consumers, whether in terms of ingredients, raw materials or finished products.

A PACK WITH A GREENER
HEART THAN EVER BEFORE!

Sustainable inside and out: our beverages never break this rule…

With our four production lines — using the most advanced Tetra Pak® technology and external co-packers — we offer great versatility in the types of packaging, starting from the smallest size, the 200 ml, up to the 250 ml and finally the 500 ml and 1000 ml sizes.

MORE SUSTAINABLE BRIK

the pack is composed of 88%* renewable raw materials such as wood and sugar cane.

*pack 1lt.

OKBIO-BASED CAP

The non-fossil origin cap is made entirely from sugar cane.

CARDBOARD

The cardboard comes from responsibly managed forests.

NATURAL PACK

In the natural version, cardboard retains the characteristic colour of untreated fibers.

ENERGY

INTELLIGENT ENERGY

For us at Abafoods, the environment is as much a priority as the quality of our products.

That’s why we are constantly investing in sustainable production solutions, such as our innovative cogeneration plant, which allows us to recover energy from our own production processes. Thanks to this, we cogenerate 40% of our energy. Another 58% comes from renewable energy sources that we purchase strictly certified. The remaining 2% comes from the photovoltaic system on our rooves. Yes, ours is a truly green heart.

WATER SOURCES

WATER IS A PRECIOUS RESOURCE

We definitely don’t like wasting water. In fact, we aim to eliminate it altogether. How?

Through a full-cycle water system: the water we use for our products undergoes periodic analysis and must meet specific chemical, physical and microbiological standards.

In addition, reverse osmosis is at the heart of our water process: it provides the highest level of filtration without resorting to the use of chemical reagents.

A remineralization process then returns all naturally occurring minerals previously removed by osmosis. Our water is therefore safe, checked and 100% suitable for the production of our drinks.

Finally, we pay attention to industrial washing water, which undergoes activated sludge purification before being released into surface water for agricultural purposes, closing the loop with the land.
