Energy management

Energy management

At Lamberti we have started specific action plans and investments at manufacturing plants globally aimed at combatting the effects of climate change through both adaptation and mitigation initiatives.  Ongoing projects include increasing renewable sources in our energy mix, lighting and insulation systems, as well as single-use plastic elimination globally.  
In 2007 started the process of certification of our manufacturing sites according to ISO 14001 standards for environmental management.  In our first Sustainability Report for year 2019, we committed to have 40% of our manufacturing sites certified ISO 14001:2015 within 2022. In 2021, our achievement level is 36,8% or 7 plants certified globally.  

Energy consumption sources* (GJ), 2021

The total non-renewable sources (GJ) are 567.951


We are constantly looking to diversify our energy sources, namely by working with our local suppliers to apply certifiable renewable sources of energy including installation of solar panels at our sites for self-produced renewable energy.  Our total renewable energy consumed as electricity from renewable sources was 31.377 GJ or 15% of all electricity purchased and 13% of all electricity consumed.

Energy intensity ratio

Energy intensity helps contextualize the organization’s efficiency expressing the energy required per unit of activity. Simply said, the energy intensify ratio reveals the quantity of energy required per unit output. 

Understanding our energy intensity is a key metric to track and put in place actions and policies to reduce the energy required to manufacture a product.

Our internal teams use this key metric to improve our scientific research, formulations, and processes in order to reduce our overall energy intensity and design steps to increase our energy sourcing from renewables.
