The Company encourages all its factories to carry out continuous water-conservation activities every year to improve water efficiency. At the end of 2021, 54.5% of the Group's factories have carried out water conservation action. Through water conservation methods such as recycling steam condensate, improving production processes to reduce steam use, reusing water, installing meters to assess water consumption, identifying leak points, and reducing waste, nearly 5.74 million cubic meters of water were saved in 2021. The Company's overall water consumption intensity of its factories decreased significantly by 6.16% compared to 2020.
Water Reuse
Surface water and groundwater are reused after reaching the standard through water purification facilities. To reduce wastewater discharge and conserve water resources, some of our factories reuse concentrated water. After further treatment, the external drainage from the sewage and the concentrated water from the water treatment are recycled and used as circulating cooling water and plant domestic water (washroom water, cleaning water, planting water, etc.),effectively reducing the waste of water resources.
Supply Chain Water Management – Farming Support
Although Yihai Kerry's business does not involve farming,to promote modern agriculture for the benefit of the people, the Company takes our efforts to support farmers by providing scientific cultivation and scientific irrigation techniques. Taking cereal cultivation as an example,Yihai Kerry formulated regulations such as Operating Procedures for Organic Production and Operation and Technical Procedures for Cereal Production in Yu County, and through offline training activities, helps farmers use scientific irrigation techniques and achieve reasonable water conservation.
In the future, we will continue to improve water risk management, strengthen water conservation and reuse, promote supply chain water conservation programs, and set realistic water conservation targets based on the continuous monitoring of water use.
