Committed to sustainability
Sustainability is a measure of the ability to endure – to create policies and become responsible for the long-term wellbeing of an organization. Sustainability can be looked at in three pillars – environmental, social, and financial. For us, it is also about creating sustainable practices for the world surrounding our company.
We continue to reduce possible inefficiencies to improve our operational best practices and reduce waste. Where possible, we source all of our ingredients in Canada, supporting the local economy, reducing transit time and maximizing freshness of ingredients.
Our Wholesome Blend Pea-Free diets come in biodegradable packaging that uses technology of Eco-One®. It allows plastic to be broken down into humus (rich soil), methane (energy source) and carbon dioxide in biologically active landfills (BAL). When Eco-One plastic reaches BAL, this technology encourages moisture to infiltrate and expand the plastic, allowing microbes to enter and breakdown the packaging.
Trouw Nutrition, as a part of Nutreco, has long worked to build a more sustainable food system as we strive to achieve our mission of feeding the future.
