SUSTAINABLE POTATO PRODUCTS
“Using nature to create” is at the core of our value-creation model. For us, sustainability is not some empty phrase. Because we have been relying on the innovative power of nature since 1928. This harmony with our natural resources is present in all our ideas and in each of our potato products.
EMSLAND POTATO COUNTRY
Despite an export ratio of over 75 percent, we nonetheless think and act in a down-to-earth manner. We grow our potatoes as close as possible to our processing sites and do so in close cooperation with our home in the Grafschaft Bentheim region. Moreover, our peas are harvested exclusively in European countries. By doing so, we are able to conserve natural resources with our pea and potato products and substantially decrease emissions. Our motto: Think globally, act locally.
SUSTAINABLE RESOURCES
As a manufacturing company, our responsibility does not begin in the factory, but in the field. And it ends with innovative potato products that are developed and created on the basis of the sustainable management of the environment. In order to achieve this, we manage the soil in such a way that the health of the soil, as well as the conservation of resources, are at the forefront. In this way, we aim to continuously reduce the impact that we have on the environment.
The big issues facing our industry concern raw material security, soil health and climate-resistant crops. Therefore, we rely on collaborative efforts with research institutions and suppliers, so that we may share our knowledge and help shape sustainable agricultural practices that bring about the environmentally friendly production of potato products as well as other starch products.
