BIO

Bio Company is continuing to improve its CO2 reduction performance in its stores. All the recent stores operate with energy-efficient heat recovery systems in refrigeration units, so that there is no need for heating in the buildings - a 100 percent saving of energy to keep a store warm. 35 stores already operate this latest environmental standard and some of the older stores are in the process of conversion. The plan is to complete this energy-efficient upgrade of all their outlets by the end of 2019. In order to achieve energy reduction, glass doors have been fitted to the fresh food shelves and you also find LED lighting everywhere, all of which saves up to 40 percent of electricity. Bio Company is also beginning to implement a sustainable mobility concept that will reduce CO2 emissions by up to 30 percent. This applies not only to the firm's own vehicles, including delivery vehicles, but also to the cars of employees used for company business. The long-term aim is always to choose the most sustainable means of transport for a particular journey.
