In 2024, Staunton Foods reduced water consumption per unit output, exceeding the milestone target by 4.4%.
In 2024, Staunton Foods continued to prioritise water efficiency across its operations, achieving a water consumption rate of 1.94 m³/t. While this marked a slight increase from 1.8 m³/t in 2023, the company still outperformed its milestone target by 4.4%, demonstrating effective water management despite operational fluctuations.
A key achievement during the year was the completion of a planned leak detection survey. This initiative was instrumental in identifying and addressing inefficiencies within the system, helping to prevent unnecessary water loss and laying the groundwork for future reductions in consumption.
Staunton Foods also maintained a strong focus on monitoring, with both monthly and daily tracking of water usage across its operations. This consistent oversight enabled the company to better understand consumption trends and identify potential hotspots where further efficiencies could be achieved.
The combination of proactive leak detection and rigorous monitoring reflects a strategic approach to water stewardship. By investing in data-driven insights and infrastructure improvements, Staunton Foods is building resilience into its operations and reinforcing its commitment to sustainable water use.
