Sustainability
For the sake of the environment
Zero waste is our philosophy.
We try to minimize our environmental footprint in every stage of production: from raw materials to packaging. However, our commitment is not limited to production, we focus on all small things surrounding us every day (compostable packaging, co-generator, eco-friendly technology hub, higher energy efficiency through photovoltaic system, LCA analysis, water footprint, hybrid or electric car fleet, Social and Environmental Report, sustainable gadgets).
Compostable packaging
Traceless packaging
We have invested in innovation to minimize our footprint by eliminating plastic from all packaging: all Zini packaging can now be disposed of in the organic bin without leaving a trace.
Zini has been the first company in the frozen industry to study compostable packaging that can resist and have high performances at low temperatures. This study has turned into reality: after a successful pilot project, all Zini products are now contained in biodegradable packaging.
Environment
Sustainable up to your plate
Water saving
All our products are cooked in water and quick-frozen and they can be reheated directly in the pan. This process allows achieving 95% water saving.
Energy saving
All our products are ready in 2 minutes, thus halving the use of energy during the cooking process.
Zero waste
All our products are cooked and IQF frozen, one by one. This process allows to use only the amount of product needed, without waste.
Shelf life up to 24 months
All our products are cooked in water and quick-frozen, allowing a shelf life of up to 24 months. This allows to stock up, saving on shipping costs.
