Ecological Responsibility

WE LIKE TO LEAVE TRACES!

Except when it comes to our ecological footprint. As a locally producing company with national and international distribution, we are aware of the impact of our business activities. And because we depend on nature and its products, it is our goal to use its resources responsibly and protect them. That's why we give our best every day - from selecting ingredients to manufacturing our products to delivering them to our customers.

SUSTAINABLE - FROM RAW MATERIAL SELECTION TO THE BOWL

Why is our food so delicious? Because we use fresh, natural ingredients, along with particularly gentle and environmentally friendly production methods, and then the culinary delight is placed in the most recyclable packaging possible. It's a taste that even climate protectors will appreciate!

THESE ARE OUR CHALLENGES:

Admittedly: the production of conventional pet food, specialty food, and dietary supplements seems difficult to reconcile with sustainability and environmental protection. Because, in particular, the production of meat for our dogs and cats is very energy-intensive and generates more CO2 emissions than a plant-based diet.For us, it has always been clear: We want to develop pet food that is more sustainable and natural than conventional options. And in doing so, improve the health, quality of life, and carbon footprint of animals!

How do we produce sustainably, yet economically?

How can we reduce the ecological footprint of farm animals while maintaining consistent nutrient intake?

How do we design packaging that is environmentally and product-friendly?

Over 40,000 tons of pet food and 28,500 tons of livestock feed per year - how does animal welfare fare in this context?

AND THESE ARE OUR SOLUTIONS!

SOLAR POWER FROM THE ROOF

A photovoltaic system on the roofs of our buildings provides us with environmentally friendly electricity.

MORE ECO IS NOT POSSIBLE!

The energy purchased for our production comes 100% from hydropower, solar energy, and alternative fuels.

100% Green Electricity Certificate

WITH DOUBLE ENERGY

Our combined heat and power plant provides electricity for production, and we use the resulting heat for cooking the products - with significantly higher efficiency compared to conventional electricity production.

THE AIR IS CLEAN!

The exhaust air generated during production is cleaned by living biocultures - and this has been the case for over 25 years! The result: reduced energy consumption and fresh air!

NOTHING INSTEAD OF NOX!

With innovative technologies and well-thought-out recipes, our BEWITAL agri division reduces feed-related nitrogen and methane emissions from farm animals without reducing nutrient content.

RECYCLING? GOT AWARDED!

Our packaging can be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner and provides the highest product protection. This is also confirmed by the "Made for Recycling" seal from the recycling specialist Interseroh.

TREE-FRIENDLY PAPER

Letter? Only with a seal! Whether it's can labels or brochures - our paper is FSC-certified and comes from responsibly managed forests.

THE LAST ONE TURNS OFF THE LIGHT!

From saving electricity to avoiding waste to carpooling: because every step counts, we promote the internal suggestion system to improve our energy balance.

30 % ENERGY SAVINGS,
100 % TASTE

At BEWITAL, innovation is a tradition. Need an example? Our thermal mixing process for the production of dry food, supported by the Federal Ministry's Environmental Innovation Program, where natural ingredients are processed as gently as possible - retaining as much taste and nutrients as possible.
