Powering a Greener Future!

Sustainability

We have a collective and shared responsibility to think sustainably and act responsibly, preparing today for the future of tomorrow. At Americana Foods, we take a proactive approach to sustainability, implementing a range of initiatives that significantly reduce our environmental impact.

 

We have optimized our processes with continuous retort machines, cutting steam consumption by 30%, leading to substantial savings in electricity and water and have across factories transitioned to energy-efficient LED lighting with motion sensors. To address water conservation, we have replaced manual taps with motion-sensing taps and have installed high-pressure washers, eliminating unnecessary water waste, and recycling water used in production processes for cooling towers. Furthermore, we have switched from diesel to natural gas for 60% of our forklifts and converted our boilers to compressed natural gas (CNG), resulting in a 90% reduction in fuel consumption and significantly lowering emissions. We have also replaced hydraulic equipment with electrically powered alternatives, reducing oil waste, noise pollution, and emissions.

 

This collective effort represents a sample of all the initiatives we are driving forward, to conserve scarce resources and reduce our carbon footprint, contributing to a greener future. At Americana Foods, are committed to protect our planet, cherish natural resources and reduce our environmental footprint while driving positive action for the planet and communities we operate in and beyond, making a difference in the lives of many and leaving the world a better place than we found it.
