Sustainability
The beautiful vistas of our U.S. park system are visual reminders of the important work we must undertake to sustain our planet. Marzetti® supports increasing efficiency, reducing waste and consumption, conserving water and other natural resources, and investing in new technology to protect the environment.
Marzetti® was honored by the John Muir Association for Excellence in Sustainability.
Marzetti® is also a recipient of John Muir Business Conservation Award as the result of company-wide efforts to reduce our carbon footprint. Investment in waste water pretreatment, reductions in electric, gas and water consumption per pound produced, reduced emissions in fleet operations, a wide range of successful supply chain initiatives to reduce energy consumption and green house gas emissions plus an extensive list of recycled materials were some of the qualifying accomplishments recognized by the John Muir Association.
As we plan for future growth, we will continue to focus on the following areas to increase efficiency, reduce cost and consumption of all resources, and provide for the long-term sustainability of our business, and our planet:
- Reduce energy consumption
- Reduce and recycle physical waste
- Reduce freight and conserve resources through cube utilization
- Manage the Marzetti® fleet to save fuel and decrease pollution
