Recovering value from wine-making by-products<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We work to recover value from wine-making by-products. Wine residues are sent to an alcohol
producer for recovery into alcohol.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Reducing materials in our packaging<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Working with our suppliers, we reduce unnecessary packaging and the weight of our bottles. We also use recycled glass in our bottles; the proportion varies by bottle colour and is based on
supplier information.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Responsible water management<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We monitor water consumption by section and machine and implement measures such as water
recovery and reuse, more efficient nozzles and photoelectric sensors that help avoid water use when no bottles are passing through. These actions are part of our ongoing approach to optimize water use in our production processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
