Sustainable Environmental Practices

It is our conviction that sustainable farming practices can produce high-quality produce and safeguard and conserve our environment. Our commitment to environmental responsibility is at the heart of our operations, and we recognise the important role we all play in this effort.

Our sustainable farming practices

We believe that sustainable practices in farming are essential for producing high-quality produce while protecting and conserving our environment. At Perfection Fresh, we are dedicated to minimising waste on our farms. Our goal is to achieve zero organic waste to landfill by 2030. We sort waste into green waste, recyclable materials, and landfill. Organic by-products are potentially used as biomass energy, feed, or fertilisers, contributing to our circularity measures.

Our approach to environmental stewardship

Perfection Fresh is committed to integrating environmental stewardship into every aspect of our operations. We employ eco-friendly farming techniques and advanced land management practices to ensure our environmental impact is minimised and sustainability is maximised.

Ethical methods of eco-friendly farming

Perfection Fresh’s Two Wells facility utilises Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA), the most advanced form of protected cropping. CEA combines high-technology greenhouses with hydroponic growing systems to control the growing environment precisely, manage nutrition, and address pests and diseases effectively.

Supporting Farmers

Our dedication to sustainable agriculture initiatives extends beyond our own operations. We actively engage with our supply chain, industry partners, and policymakers to promote and implement ethical farming practices and innovative sustainability solutions.

Retail packaging targets

By 2025, Perfection Fresh aims to ensure that 100% of our retail packaging is recyclable, reusable, or compostable. Additionally, we are working to incorporate an average of 50% recycled material into our packaging wherever possible.
