Green Office Initiative

One Planet One Health is not just a slogan for us. We feel that this is important and we have implemented it in our daily lives through Green Office initiative. The green office initiative began with a campaign to make changes to habits of saving water, paper and electricity.

Some of the implementation of our habitual changes are printing on both sides of the paper, turns off the lights when finished using the meeting room, reduces the use of plastic cups for drinking, provides a special segregated trash bin (separated into paper, plastic and organic waste). We invite our employees to reduce using utensils that are not environmentally friendly and reduce food waste.

Emission Control and Energy Consumption

We have made various efforts with performance indicators to reduce emissions over the years to create a clean environment and maintain climate stability. As part of Danone Global, our efforts to reduce emissions and energy consumption are in line with the design of the global programs contained in our annual Nature Road Map.

The steps we take to manage and reduce energy consumption include conducting energy audits, optimizing blow down on boilers, overcoming leaks of compressed air and replacing leaking steam traps, eliminating evaporators, installing oil injection, optimizing the distribution of the air system. (AHU), and the use of LED lights in a factory environment. In 2017-2018 we managed to reduce our energy use by 1,234 Giga Joules.

Water and Wastewater Management

To appreciate the importance of water sources, we always use water efficiently and effectively and take initiatives to maintain and restore the sustainability of water sources. We continue to monitor our water sources by installing flowmeters at the relevant points.

As a form of our responsibility in maintaining the waste water flow from the production process, we carry out wastewater treatment using aerobic and anaerobic methods in wastewater treatment plants.

Wastewater is regularly audited to ensure that its quality is in accordance with existing quality standards before being discharged into the river. In 2017 and 2018, our total water consumption reached 515,253 m3 and 498,858 m3, respectively. We have succeeded in reducing water consumption by 3% as a result of our commitment to always protect and appreciate the importance of water.

Waste Management and Treatement

In managing and treating waste, we pay attention to various aspects such as the efficiency and effectiveness of the existing control system, improving the quality of research, and the application of waste treatment methods.

Our initiatives in managing waste are divided into two, namely through labor and the environment. From the workforce side, we carry out several initiatives such as regular training and workshops for employees. We also conduct nature engagement in our business environment. On the environmental side, we have carried out several initiatives in waste management such as working with licensed third parties to transport waste and utilize reject products as animal feed. Currently, 100% of the reject products have been successfully used again.
