♻️ Today is Global Recycling Day ! A day dedicated to recognizing and supporting the importance that recycling plays in preserving our natural resources and securing the future of our planet! ♻️

 

Sustainability is one of OLVEA’s core values and so is Recycling!

 

Overview of our actions carried out in 2021:

 

🔹 4,400 tons of by-products were reused in methanization to produce renewable gas. This action contributed to the production of 444,000 m³ of biomethane, or the equivalent to 365 gas-heated households!

🔹 90% of our oils were delivered in low-environmental impact packagings (bulk, IBC, cardboard boxes)

🔹 Our fully integrated TrueShea™ supply chain contributes to the circular economy (biomass boiler fuelled by shea cakes) enabling us to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of our production.

🔹 We also offer a unique range of natural and upcycled vegetable oils for cosmetics:  Apricot, Avocado, Macadamia, Olive, Sweet Almond, Hazelnut, Grapeseed, Sesame, Walnut…

 

…and so much more to come in 2022!
