New Commitment to Sustainable Operations by Leading Feed
Additive Manufacturer Anpario
Anpario, the independent manufacturer of natural, sustainable
animal feed additives for health, nutrition, and biosecurity, is
pleased to announce the installation of solar panels at the
Company's head office and production facilities. This will help to
reduce our carbon emissions to meet our net-zero emissions target
by 2030 and help fight climate change.
The move to install solar panels at the company's head office
and production plant in Nottinghamshire UK will support Anpario's
strategy to reduce the impact of its global operation on the
environment, thus enabling them to meet their ambition of net-zero
for scope 1 & 2 emissions by 2030.
The GBP274,000 photovoltaic installation will commence in
December 2021, with energy from the sun harnessed to power the
plant from early 2022. It is anticipated that the installation will
generate one third of the current onsite annual energy consumption,
equating to a 43% reduction in carbon emissions. The balance of the
onsite electricity will continue to be purchased from the grid from
renewable energy sources, which have already been adopted as part
of our overall drive to reduce carbon emissions. In addition, at
times when the solar panels generate more electricity than is used
on site, the excess will be exported to the national grid and used
locally in homes and businesses reducing the overall reliance on
fossil fuels.
The initiative follows significant investment in recent years
implementing bulk supply, automation and packaging solutions to
reduce energy consumption, the impact of transportation and to
minimise waste.
Anpario's ambition is to reach net-zero within our own
operational footprint by 2030, this includes all scope 1 and 2
emissions as well as scope 3 emissions from business travel. The
solar installation will contribute significantly to meeting this
target and sustain our continued requirement for operational growth
to meet increasing sales demand.
With innovative specialist feed additives such as Orego-stim(R)
and Optomega(R) Anpario's key focus is to optimise animal protein
production by using sustainable natural resources, for the benefit
of animals, customers, and human health. Our products support
animal health and productivity, enabling producers to achieve a
reduction in their carbon footprint associated with milk, meat and
egg production - Naturally.
Karen Prior, Corporate Responsibility Director at Anpario
commented "We recognise that swift and decisive action is now
needed to reduce emissions and address the climate crisis globally
. Anpario is focused and committed to reviewing and continuing to
invest in our own operations to help meet this global
challenge.
Our production facility has established benchmark levels to
measure our own carbon emissions and is dedicated to drive
continuous improvements to increase efficiency, thus reducing our
impact on the environment. This is also crucial to our customers
around the world in managing their supply chain emissions and
reducing their carbon footprint".
