Combining food safety, competitive pricing and sustainable design of food products
The world’s population is growing exponentially. By 2050, global food consumption will have increased by 70 per cent while resources become increasingly scarce. At the same time, consumer expectations of the food and drink industry on safety, pricing and environmental issues are becoming ever more demanding. The challenge for the food and beverage industry lies in reconciling these expectations.
Food safety, economic performance and environmental performance are strategic levers that can help you increase your brand value and the attractiveness of your products and develop your business.

How to reduce your costs and risks?
Our technologies and processes ensure safety and hygiene at your production plants, compliance with the strictest food standards and decontamination of process water for biosafety. Learn more about safety and compliance here.
We offer a range of smart solutions for improved efficiency and reduced downtime, including industrial maintenance, odour control, mobile water treatment solutions, water processing products and services, emergency response for water issues and our innovative ice pigging process for pipeline cleaning.
With support from the design phase through to operations, we help improve your performance through controlling energy consumption, recovering waste, reducing operational and capital expenditure, designing and operating optimised systems, enhancing asset and energy management processes and reducing sludge volumes through advanced de-watering technologies.
Reducing your carbon footprint
Throughout the waste and water cycle, we reduce your environmental impact and use green energy produced from water, waste and organic residues. We use smart management tools to monitor and control performance.
Our tested methods guarantee a reliable, continuous water supply while cutting consumption through recycling, reuse and optimisation. We protect water resources in collaboration with local communities, conduct risk assessments, develop protective measures and install smart solutions for water optimisation.
We recover resources from organic waste through biological recovery processes and advanced liquid food digestion technology. We convert dry waste to fuel and harness biogas from waste and wastewater for heat, power, biofuel and green gas.
Our sustainable recovery and recycling solutions for packaging extract valuable materials for reuse in the economy, from high-quality secondary raw materials to giving plastic bottles new life. Innovative solutions such as our de-packaging facility reduce your environmental footprint and boost economic performance.
We build customised waste management plans based on full waste audits to enhance recycling and recovery rates, educate and empower your employees and monitor, report on and analyse your waste and environmental performance.
How to increase the value of your brand and products?
By boosting your environmental performance, we help you build positive brand experience and association with your customers and engage your employees, customers and communities in sustainable activities and initiatives.
