The Sao Paulo plant will continue to reduce water consumption through employee engagement, asset care programs, and capital projects within the next three years.

During 2016, the Sao Paulo, Brazil plant reduced their normalized water use more than 5.5%. The Sao Paulo plant will continue to reduce water consumption through employee engagement, asset care programs, and capital projects within the next three years. While all Kellogg manufacturing facilities have established water-efficiency goals and are implementing water-saving initiatives, we are focusing on high risk locations. The Sao Paulo plant is investigating water reuse projects to be implemented in 2017 or 2018. This strategy is expected to be an effective response to the short term risk of water withdrawal limits. Water conservation and capital investment costs were estimated based on previously implemented conservation programs and projects and those currently under investigation. If growth is constrained at the Sao Paulo plant, one potential solution would be to invest capital in either product relocation or water reduction/reuse technologies at this facility. Sao Paulo is currently investigating onsite wastewater treatment options with increased water reuse to mitigate the increased water costs and scarcity experienced in 2015. This strategy is expected to be an effective response to the long term risk of continued water withdrawal limits.

Project Results

Reduced normalized water use by more than 5.5%.
