Resources and materials: toward a circular economy
In agribusiness, managing resource flows sustainably is a key pillar in reducing environmental impact throughout the supply chain. From raw material and packaging sourcing to waste management, we adopt an integrated, responsible approach that recognizes the strategic value of every resource.
Waste recovery, a priority
Reducing waste generation across our supply chain and ensuring proper disposal is a priority for us. We are committed to maximizing resource recovery, directing waste to recovery whenever possible.
We adopt advanced technological solutions to reduce the amount of waste produced in factories and farms: bio-digesters for sludge management, drying systems that take advantage of waste heat, vacuum systems to optimize the collection of organic waste. In parallel, we promote the recovery and recycling of packaging materials, exploring innovative solutions to transform waste into new resources.
The value of Animal By-Products (ABPs)
Animal By-Products (ABPs) are animal-derived materials not intended for human consumption, such as meat processing remains, egg shells and other wastes.
For the Amadori Group, the management of this material is a key element of its commitment to the circular economy. ABPs, in fact, finds use in the production of animal feed, but also compost, biofuels and other components for industry.
In hatcheries, for example, unfertilized eggs, depending on their degree of certification, are recovered and used in applications such as pet food. On farms, on the other hand, ABPs-which include animal manure-are turned into fertilizer or combustible biomass, a renewable energy source.
Within processing plants, ABPs is treated and processed into pet-food meal and poultry oil. The latter is used not only as animal feed, but also in aquaculture and as a bioliquid, ensuring sustainable use of resources and reduced environmental impact.
Sustainability, our path
Beyond safe, high-quality products: our commitment extends to people, animals, and the planet, creating a more balanced future.
