Project Overview: 

The implementation of TRUE certification in our facilities encourages us to continue implementing strategies to improve the way we manage our waste and reduce our environmental impact.
• We achieved a 98.5% diversion rate.
• A new project was implemented for textile waste recycling, which used to be sent to landfills.
• The initiative to reuse wooden pallets and metal drums for transporting hazardous waste instead of buying new containers.
• The reuse of computer equipment within the facilities and external donation.
• Use of compost generated at the plant for green areas, nursery and food production.

“At Constellation Brands we promote actions that foster a culture of continuous improvement to achieve a performance of environmental excellence and reduce our impact on waste, based on the guidelines of our breweries and the TRUE standard,” said Director Senior EHS & BCP, México.
