Green since 1905

For a company that has always been committed to enhancing the precious fruits of the earth in the food industry, the relationship with the environment is a natural fact.

We work to ensure that our production processes, methods, and ingredients all take into account the development of scientific knowledge and experience regarding the environment, in order to better respect our local ecosystem, prevent pollution, and protect the local environment and landscape.

Green since 1905

Respect for the water supply

Fabbri 1905 exclusively uses water from proprietary wells, rather than burdening the municipal water grid. This well water is purifi ed and rendered potable in a plant featuring an organic fi lter, that traps all organic and non-organic pollutants present. The water used for cooling the equipment is reclaimed and recirculated in order to optimize water consumption.

The average organic load of Fabbri 1905’s purifi ed wastewater and its total suspended solids are 90% lower than the legal limit. The wastewater produced by Fabbri 1905 does not contain dangerous, toxic, harmful or carcinogenic substances.

Our commitment to saving energy

Over the last thirty years, our cumulative energy savings have reached 20% thanks to changes made to the steam distribution system in production facilities.

Fabbri 1905 has undertaken a renovation project aimed at reducing heat loss, adopting low-energy-consumption lighting systems and a central air-conditioning system in line with the recommendations of the signatories of the Kyoto Protocol.

Fabbri 1905’s atmospheric emissions are mostly related to facilities for the storage and transportation of sugar and other non-hazardous powdered foodstuffs. These emissions are constantly monitored, and a fi lter system prevents the uncontrolled release of these particulates into the atmosphere. 

Thanks to a post-combustion capture system, these gases and particulates are transformed into water vapour, carbon dioxide, and other non-toxic gases. Additionally, to limit the spread of unpleasant odours created by the water-purification process, Fabbri 1905 has installed a deodorization structure: a filtering bed of plant material, containing microorganisms that feed on the compounds that produce odours and transform them into other, odourless substances.

Innovation also means knowing when to say goodbye to something you’re fond of in order to pursue an important goal. That is the situation we find ourselves in now with glass, which Fabbri has always used to package its syrups, but which we have now replaced with PET plastic.

We have developed a completely recoverable style of packaging, can be entirely disposed of in the “plastics” recycling category along with its cap and label.

All waste produced by Fabbri 1905 is recovered or recycled by authorized specialist companies in the field. Packaging waste of paper/cardboard/plastic/wood/glass and metal is used to create new packaging or other objects. 

Food waste is sent to facilities that process it to produce bio-gas, a source of clean energy. None of the waste produced by Fabbri 1905 is sent to landfills.
