Evolving towards a more sustainable future

Compressed air generation accounts for the second highest amount of energy consumption in the factory, second to the consumption of the manufacturing and packing machines. A pneumatic audit is planned for 2023 with a view towards measuring and minimising air consumption.

Renewal of the Beissier sales team's vehicle pool.

The tradition vehicles will be replaced with hybrid models which are more sustainable for the environment.

The facilities lay-out was analysed in depth in 2022 and the heating system was subsequently redesigned. We have set a goal for the coming year to resize, relocate and eradicate of these heat sources, so as to reduce gas consumption by 40%.

Goal achieved: The incorporation of two new wrapping machines which permit a 30% saving on the use of plastics. They allow us to wrap 100% of our production in a more sustainable fashion.

Goal for 2023: The incorporation of a third machine for our warehouse, to wrap picking orders and achieve the resulting savings on plastics.

The milestone set out for 2023 has been achieved, with 30% of the dust waste created during our production processes having been recovered. Beissier continues researching ways by which to improve on this percentage, focusing on the possibilities of reusing waste generated in other sectors.

Beissier boasts a lighting installation which comprises LED light fittings and an automatic adjustment system whereby lighting savings of approximately 75% compared to 2015 have been achieved. For 2023, the company plans to address their facility’s outdoor automatic switch-off sensors which will operate all year long between 22:15h and 6:15h, resulting in an additional 12.5% saving in this same area. In addition to this, minor improvements will also be implemented in indoor communal areas, such as the installation of presence sensors, which will result in a small additional amount of energy saving.

Recycling suppliers’ pallets for shipments: The additional re-use of CP2 model pallets was introduced at the beginning of 2022, which brought the yearly total of re-used pallets to a total of 4,000.

The lead batteries are changed for lithium ones. This is a more efficient system with less consumption.

We have been pioneers in the purification of 100% of waste water since 1990 at our first factory in Pasajes.
