Butter Buds News

You don’t have to worry about clogging the landfill with the packing peanuts that come from Butter Buds Food Ingredients. They are bio-degradable.

Using bio-degradable packing peanuts is just one of the initiatives Butter Buds has launched since starting its sustainability campaign earlier this year.

Other initiatives include: – Recycling all raw material packaging – – Installing energy-saving light fixtures – – Setting computers to go into sleep mode after two hours of not being used – – Switching to bio-degradable waste basket liners –

Future initiatives include: – Installing motion-detector light switches – – Putting vending machines on timers to cycle off at night and weekends –

Meanwhile, employees are being asked to turn off lights when leaving the office, use less lighting while in the office, and close their window shades over the weekend.

“Being green makes sense in more ways than one”, according to Operations Director Paul Manring. “We use less energy. We create less pollution. And we serve as a good corporate citizen.”
