Water

Upstream, in its procurement policy, Malteurop systematically gives preference to non-irrigated cereal grains: 98% of the barley processed by Malteurop comes from non-irrigated fields.

Throughout the industrial process, Malteurop makes efforts to reduce consumption of water; one of the ways we do so is by establishing measurement diagrams for optimizing water volumes and use flows for water in our malting plants.

Malteurop is also participating in a major international project for developing a new technology for recycling steeping water, whose goal is to reduce the volumes of water necessary for germinating the grain.

Downstream, to restore clean water to the biosphere, each of the Group’s malting plants is equipped with a water purification plant. The Group’s total capacity for water purification is 2,700,000 m3.
