The reds are set to go green, when Liverpool FC take action to reduce its food waste and deliver on its sustainability goals.
Via a new partnership with Iugis in Europe & Australia, they will use Iugis’ innovative food waste solution, recycling food waste by breaking it down into water.
As part of its Reds Go Green initiative to become more environmentally friendly, the club have installed Iugis’ innovative organic food digester machines at Anfield Stadium.
Pioneering machines use microorganisms and oxygen to transform food waste into water on site. This will reduce the need for off-site transport and diverting it from landfill.
Over the past few years, the club’s Reds Going Green initiative has had a significant effect on improving the club’s environmental impact and fostering greater sustainability.
Positive steps are being made to reduce single-use plastic, along with the development of the LFC allotment in Marlborough Road, where food is grown to serve supporters on matchday.
Billy Hogan, managing director and chief commercial officer, Liverpool
FC, said: “We’re committed to becoming more environmentally friendly and have
made positive strides towards becoming a truly sustainable club. This
partnership with Iugis is another step towards meeting this goal and will help
us better manage our food waste.”
Bill Papas, CEO, Iugis, said: “We’re excited to form this new partnership in
the UK with Liverpool FC. Our goal is to have a dramatic impact on how food
waste is managed and working with such a premier global partner in Europe and
Australia, enables us to highlight the innovative technology that is available
today to dramatically reduce businesses’ carbon footprints.”
