Description
One of WIRA’s fields of activity is the production (purchase and packaging) and trading of healthy food, plus related services rendered to the target distributor. However, technological limitations resulting from our ageing machinery park have until now prevented us from implementing biodegradable packaging, and consequently from cooperation with distributors from Western and Northern Europe. Therefore, we have come up with a project which will help WIRA replace the packaging used to-date with recyclable and biodegradable packaging for BIO food. It requires the purchase of machines for the automated production line, and the construction of a production building in which the process will be implemented. The environment-friendly solutions used in the building will make it highly energy-efficient. That will account for the following environmental benefits: a yearly reduction of energy consumption by our plant by 0.01 GWh, a yearly reduction of CO2 emissions by 3.71 tons and a yearly reduction of waste produced by 122.41 tons. In addition, the project will result in the employment of 7 new people, a turnover increase by 42%, and an increase of profits by 23%.
