Milk with less water

摘要

As water becomes an increasingly scarce commodity [see GF Special Edition 'Water Works'], savvy companies are working out new ways to use less. With expertise on the issue at a premium, the Food and Drink Federation (FDF), which groups the UK's leading manufacturers in the sector, teamed up with WRAP to set up something called the Federation House Commitment (FHC). Its aim: to help the industry cut water use overall by 20% by 2020. In return for signing up, FDF members can get access to the latest specialist knowledge, best practice guidelines and online tools. Importantly, they also get to learn from the experiences of companies throughout the food and drink industry (such as Coca-Cola, Heinz and Kraft) by participating in peer working groups.
