01

Environmental Stewardship & Resource Efficiency

Greenhouse Gas (GHG) accounting and carbon offsetting

  • A monthly measurement framework quantifies Kenafric’s Scope 1, Scope 2 and carbon dioxide equivalent (CO₂e) emissions from operational activity. It produces recurring indicative monthly carbon footprint reports to set a clear baseline and track decarbonisation trends.
  • A targeted offsetting mechanism neutralises verified Scope 1 and 2 emissions.
  • We have planted 2,000 tree seedlings nationwide in partnership with local environmental organisations, with active plans to double this through carbon offset programmes.

Clean energy and efficiency

  • An advanced solar energy system cuts overall energy consumption by 22%, delivering recurring monthly savings.
  • An Air Preheater (APH) and Water Preheater (WPH) increase boiler thermal efficiency while curbing emissions.

Water conservation and circularity

  • A Condensate Recovery System recovers condensate water, maximises water reuse, enhances boiler efficiency and lowers fuel demand.
  • Freshwater extraction is reduced by automating the cooker flushing cycle and reintroducing flash water directly into the candy production process.

Emissions control and air quality

  • Dust collection systems, alongside the APH and WPH units, maintain full regulatory compliance for particulate matter (PM) levels.

Sustainable waste management and packaging circularity

  • Recognised and awarded as the most proactive member of PAKPRO for leadership in collecting and recycling packaging waste.
  • Achieved up to a 65% packaging material recycling rate and incorporated 60% recycled content across selected packaging lines.

02

Workplace Health & Safety

Factory safety

  • Achieved 100% Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) compliance across the workforce, backed by continuous employee safety awareness training.
  • Minor and major workplace incidents have been drastically reduced.

Fleet and transport safety

  • Annual defensive driving programmes for all company vehicle drivers minimise road risks and champion safe driving habits.

03

Social Impact & Community Engagement

Care facilities and vulnerable groups

  • We continually distribute essential food and supplies to orphanages, nursing homes and care facilities.

Inclusive education sponsorships

  • We support charitable foundations that assist hearing- and visually-impaired children by funding school fees, so they have inclusive access to quality education.
