William Jackson Food Group - Case study: Water efficiency

Hazeldene, part of the William Jackson Food Group, has managed to save in excess of 20% of its water usage at its Wigan plant, some 70,000 m3 a year.

As well as refreshing its employee awareness and 'turn off' campaigns – which have previously been used to good effect – the company has invested £15,000 to improve the efficiency of its production lines.

All the divisions of William Jackson Food Group have increased both their frequency of water monitoring and, in some cases, the accuracy through sub-metering. This has been enabled by the purchase of transportable flow meters, which can be shared by divisions and also by installing fixed meters where justified. Water best practice techniques are also shared between divisions.
