FHC Members have access to a package of benefits to help them to review and reduce their water use including:
- Up to three days free on-site technical implementation support;
- Access to on-line water management tools;
- Access to benchmarking information and Good Practice Guidance;
- An opportunity to participate in a peer working group;
- An opportunity to promote success to the rest of the industry;
- Direct access to the FHC Hyder team; and
- Access to a dedicated member's area on the FHC website.
Benefits of joining FHC include:
- Improving the bottom line. By taking action, food and drink manufacturers that have not previously examined their water consumption can expect to make savings on bills of up to 30%, often with little initial financial investment.
- Gaining a competitive edge. Environmental sustainability is an important area to address. Today’s consumers are increasingly savvy shoppers who care about the impact they make on the environment, and are subsequently attracted to companies that do too. Members of the FHC are making a public declaration of their commitment to environmental sustainability. As the focus of consumers and stakeholders alike extends more and more throughout the supply chain, this is important whether you are a business-to-business or consumer focussed company.
- Anticipating the future. Making an investment today with priority access to WRAP and Hyder consulting is smart preparation for potential sustainability legislation in the future.
- Doing your part. It’s good Corporate Social Responsibility.
