Preserving natural resources

Diary activities require large amounts of water for regular cleanings of equipments. In the past 10 years, Laiterie Coralis has reduced its water consumption by 50%.
The efforts to preserve water resources started in 1990 and have been followed by continual investment in infrastructure and processes to limit the dairy’s impact on local water resources.

Dairy activities consume large quantities of energy in heating water systems used in milk sterilization processes and in the constant cleaning operations which keep equipments safe from health hazards.
Transportation of milk from the farms to the dairy is also a significant source of CO2 emissions.
Laiterie Coralis faces these energy challenges by:

–Regularly updating its heating system;

–Investing in routing software to optimize the milk collection rounds to reduce the number of kilometers traveled and the fuel consumed;

–Training its tanker-truck drivers to eco-driving on a regular basis

The ecological footprint of packaging lies primarily in the resources used for its material. The Tetra Pak brick is composed of cardboard for 73%. This cardboard comes from continually renewed forests.
33% of these forests are already FSC-certified (Forest Stewardship Council). This means that their management meets strict environmental, social and economic principles. www.fsc.org
L’Orée du Jour cardboard brick is 100% recyclable. It can be recycled in paper towels… while other materials of the brick (aluminum and plastic) can be recycled into many items.
