Sustainable development

We see our leadership position as a responsibility that goes beyond market competition. We invest in technologies, equipment and people to reduce the long-term negative consequences of our production. We aim to leave a cleaner and healthier environment by promoting sustainable business practices.

Solar power plants

Consistent with our commitment to energy efficiency and the green economy, in 2022 an investment in solar power plants with a total capacity of 4.3 MW was realized at four production locations. This investment will result in an annual reduction of 1,100 t of CO2 emissions, promoting sustainable electricity production.

Reduction of plastic in packaging

By packing milling products in cardboard trays, the use of thermal foil is reduced, thereby decreasing the use of plastic in the production process.

Electrification of forklifts

Replacing gasoline forklifts with electric ones at Zdenka-mliječni proizvodi ltd. is an upgrade to the investment in solar panels, aimed at using energy from our own production, protecting the environment and ensuring the health of employees.

Quality Control

We were the first in Croatia in the milling industry to implement the HACCP system (2004) and IFS food (2011).
