Material sources & sustainability

Each material line needs its own sustainability scope.

Brewers’ grains and yeast streams are co-products of brewing operations, while maize is an agricultural material. Each source needs an appropriate evaluation approach.

Extending the value of co-products

Brewers’ grains and yeast streams can continue to create value in material chains when identity, processing, storage and lot data are clearly managed.

  • Source identity
  • Processing method
  • Lot-specific data
02Agricultural

Reviewing agricultural materials by source

Maize is assessed by origin, crop year, product form, post-harvest conditions, quality criteria and delivery chain.

03Evidence

Linking statements to suitable data

An appropriate measurement scope, method and product-specific data make environmental indicators meaningful and reviewable.
