IBERSOL Sustainability Report 2017

ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE We continue to invest in energy efficiency • Deep fryers – frying using energy savingmeans shorter cooking times, faster recovery times and increased production due to the use of advanced heat exchangers and burners. • Combi ovens – more versatile than traditional ovens, combi ovens are also self-cleaning, and themost efficientmodels use approximately half the pow- er and water than the other models. And to properly control the different cooking programmes and maximise energy efficiency and cost savings, we also expanded our programming parameters. • Icemachines – those with greater capacity are generally more efficient, and produce twice asmuch ice, at half the energy cost per kilo of ice. By installing a time controller, we are able to produce ice during off-peak hours. • Refrigerated cabinets – we purchased new equipment with high-efficiency compressors and double insulation.We adjusted the programming parameters of existing equipment and replaced insulation seals on doors. We also opted to use certified LED lighting bulbs, which will help us save 75% energy. Finally, we installed strip curtains and door locks, which has allowed us to reduce air infiltration by 75%, thus decreasing the number of operating hours of the compressors. 50
