sustainabilty initiatives

 

Miceli Dairy Products Company is working toward being on the forefront of Sustainable Initiatives and Social Responsibility in the dairy industry.  The goal of our program is to run our operation from start to finish in a way that promotes climate stability and social well-being by minimizing the use of fossil fuels, seeking efficiency in packaging and materials, maximizing our raw materials and resources and reaching toward a “zero landfill” initiative along with many other such actions.

 

Background: The program began 8 years ago, and since its inception, we have achieved the following goals:

 

• Independent Sustainably Audit by Baldwin College

• Aggressive water conservation programs

• Reduction of packaging materials and actual weight of packaging

• Currently 2 years ahead of new, stricter FirstEnergy efficient standards for customers,

   including efficient LED lighting in new warehouse and cooler expansion

• Updated cooling systems to be above existing efficiency standards

• Utilization of raw material resources from start to finish

• Zero waste from raw materials

• Expansion of recycling programs

• Incorporation of all parts of the operation under one roof to drastically reduce ecological

   footprint and save resources on shipping and transportation

• Offer above industry standards for wages, insurance and retirement benefits

• Intensive 3rd Party environmental and social assessments from EcoVadis and

   several other international leaders in the industry

 

Growing toward the future from this assertive inception, Miceli Dairy Products Company plan is to involve furthering the above initiatives while expanding other environmental and social sustainable initiatives.  These will include the use of alternative energy sources and reusing / recycling all packaging materials brought into the facility.  Our goals will keep pace with the growing needs of a changing environmental and social climate on the planet starting from within our own backyard.
