Burton's Foods - Case study: Water efficiency
After pledging its support for the Federation House
Commitment in 2008, Burton's Foods conducted a fullscale
water investigation across all sites, relative to the
tonnes of product baked.
This detailed analysis indicated anomalies at its Moreton
baking site on the Wirral. So the company carried out
further analysis via detailed sub-metering and identified
the areas where water efficiency savings could be made.
A site-specific action plan was put into place and, by the
end of 2009, the company expects to have saved more
than 73,000 m3 of water at this site alone – equivalent to a
42% reduction in water used per tonne of product baked.
