BENEFIT OF THE BEAN

Dry edible beans and other pulses play an important role for sustainability in many ways. Pulses serve the world as a protein source with a low footprint, in both carbon and water. They also transfer nitrogen from the atmosphere to the soil and can be grown practically anywhere.



COMMITTED TO PROTECTING THE FUTURE

We engaged sustainability experts and consulting firms to make these improvements to our overall sustainability performance, and we continue to look for ways to reduce our carbon footprint.

  • Use of recycled materials in building construction
  • Reflective roof coatings assist with temperature control
  • New T5 lighting to reduce electricity usage
  • Use of skylights, white walls & ceilings for increased light
  • Radiant flooring
  • Use of repurposed steel in processing equipment
  • Transitioning fork lift fleet to electric from propane
