Mindful use of food in the cantine

In addition to feeding Thermoplan employees, the canteen team has set itself a new goal: to reduce waste and wasted food. All waste is recorded, for example from overproduction or food returned by employees. The aim is to raise awareness of the issue of waste reduction, as people still underestimate how much food ends up in the garbage can every day in the canteen. Since statistics on saved and discarded food have been displayed in the canteen and employees have been able to scoop their own food again, waste has already been significantly reduced.
