SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
Our green journey
Aveno cares for the environment. That's why we strive to be as sustainable as possible. Aveno went on a green journey to answer the SDG's. More info coming soon.
These are our 5 pillars we pride ourselves on:
01.
Never WASTE a drop
At Aveno, waste management is a priority. We have implemented a comprehensive waste policy to minimize the amount of waste generated within our facilities. Additionally, we actively collaborate with recycling partners to ensure that recyclable materials are properly processed and repurposed. By embracing sustainable practices, we strive to contribute to a cleaner environment and a more circular economy. Together, we can make a difference in waste management and create a greener future.

CARE-ing together
Aveno focuses on the well-being of its employees and our broader community. We strive for colleagues to take care of each other together. Aveno's mission is to be a caring and committed employer. Our goal is for every employee to feel good at Aveno, which will have a positive impact on both the mental and physical health of our employees. In addition, we want to have a positive impact on everyone we reach, including customers, drivers, suppliers, etc. Aveno strives to contribute to our immediate environment and society.

05.
LED there be light
As part of our commitment, we are actively working towards transitioning to renewable energy sources. By investing in solar systems, recovering heat from our factory and proper water management we aim to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and decrease greenhouse gas emissions.
Power
Green production
Along the 5.270m of electronic cables, runs grey power to supply the whole 12.637m² facility of energy. Moreover, the roof of the production area and warehouse is adapted to pass as many natural day light as possible, using the sun as a source of light and natural warmth.
Lean Logistics
Highest truck standards
Aveno has dedicated partnerships with its logistic suppliers. The trucks are registered under the EURO 6 European Emission Standards, which resulst in less CO2 emission and thus more ecofriendly. Furthermore the logistic team at Aveno tries to fill up the trucks as full as possible.
This leads to as little air transportation as possible, which not only saves logistic costs internally, but more important helps to reduce the amount of trucks and thus the amount of polution in the air.
Heat recovery
Reusing energy
The water brought to higher temperatures is reused for the processing vessels and for heating the tanks where oils/fats are stocked which are solid at room temperature. Furthermore the water runs through the floor of the office, warming the people on cold days.
