Zeelandia Ukraine takes big
steps to Zero
Waste by reducing the use of plastics.

Thanks to installation of a silo for bulk oil storage – Zeelandia Ukraine could abandon the use of plastic in production. From 4000 plastic bottles a year to zero plastic. The package free oil storage enabled us to save 320 kg of plastic bottles per year.

Another project Zeelandia Urkaine implemented at the beginning of this year was a sugar silo. It helped to immensely reduce the use of polypropylene film due to the disappearance of the bags that consist of polypropylene (plastic) and liner-film. We estimate that when storing sugar in the silo, we save more than 3.5 tons of bags per year.

Both a platinum bottle and a polypropylene bag require about 400-500 years to fully decompose in natural conditions. Thanks to silos storage we save 4 tons of garbage per year.

Another example of responsible consumption and production is the sorting of garbage in the company. Every day in the office and in production we sort paper and cardboard, plastic and polyethylene, glass, and other waste. Due to the sorting of waste, we return the valuable resources in our economy – for processing companies.
