Sustainable entrepreneurship

NOBLYS perfectly translates the Dobbels MEAT DNA into four pillars: refining high-quality meat products, being noble in our customer and supplier relationships, being noble with our employees, and being noble towards our environment. In sustainable entrepreneurship practices, we focus primarily on the fourth pillar, being noble towards our environment. Respect for our environment takes precedence. Sustainable entrepreneurship is a priority at Dobbels Meat.

Dobbels Meat bv is an innovative company that focuses not only on producing high-quality meat but also on reducing its ecological footprint. One of the company's key initiatives is water purification, a process that helps minimize the impact of industrial activities on the environment. Using advanced technologies, Dobbels Meat bv ensures that the water used in its production process is cleaned and reused, significantly reducing the amount of wastewater released into the environment.

In addition to water purification, Dobbels Meat bv has invested in sustainable energy sources, such as solar panels. Specifically, 568 panels covering an area of ​​1500 square meters and producing 186,000 kilowatt-hours annually. These solar panels provide a significant portion of the company's energy needs and reduce approximately one-third of its annual energy consumption. By using renewable energy sources, Dobbels Meat bv actively contributes to reducing CO2 emissions and preserving natural resources.

Another important step the company has taken is transitioning to eco-friendly transportation.

By investing in environmentally friendly transport, Dobbels Meat bv contributes to reducing air pollution and promoting sustainable mobility.

Furthermore, Dobbels Meat bv encourages its employees to travel in an environmentally conscious manner. Employees are encouraged to cycle to work, which not only reduces CO2 emissions but also contributes to a healthy lifestyle for the employees themselves.

The company has also invested in recycled and recyclable packaging materials as an alternative to traditional foils. These materials reduce the environmental impact and align with a circular economy. Dobbels Meat bv collaborates with external experts and firms to support this transition to more sustainable packaging solutions.

Waste management at Dobbels Meat bv is tightly regulated with specific sorting options for different waste streams. These include residual waste, paper and cardboard, PMD (plastic packaging, metal packaging, and drink cartons), plastic films, hard plastics, empty canned goods, wood, and used batteries. By separating and recycling waste in this way, the company minimizes its waste production and contributes to a more circular and sustainable approach to waste management. Overall, Dobbels Meat bv is a leader in sustainability within the meat processing industry, taking various initiatives and measures to reduce its ecological footprint and make a positive contribution to preserving the environment and natural resources.
