Sediasa Alimentación, a company specialising in the parcelling and packaging of food for distribution, part of the Grupo Fuertes holding company, has launched a photovoltaic self-supply project to advance sustainability and make more efficient use of energy.

Sediasa Alimentación promotes the use of renewable energy in its facilities with the establishment of a plant with a peak power of 1,414.8 kW, which means a savings of 1,937 MWh and 745.7 tonnes less CO2 emitted into the atmosphere.

In addition to the launch of this initiative, the company collects rainwater to be reused for gardening, cleaning, and sanitation. It has a wastewater treatment plant, acoustic insulation in all its production facilities, energy certification in its offices, environmentally friendly walls, a system for reusing industrial refrigeration, deodorisation equipment, and a centralised energy management system.

Environmental sustainability is a fundamental aspect of the business strategy of this company, which is committed to responsible resource management and to developing initiatives that help to reduce its carbon footprint.
