Danone Evian’s longstanding partnership with Schneider Electric dates back to 1994, founded on Schneider’s robust hardware solutions for the manufacturer’s distribution network.<\/p>\n
Embarking on a journey to modernise its facilities, Danone Evian has, once again, enlisted Schneider Electric’s expertise through its Service and Modernisation Plan.<\/p>\n
As a leading producer of natural mineral water, Danone Evian is deeply committed to the sustainability and preservation of water resources, according to Gilles Meunier, Electrical Distribution Manager at Evian.<\/p>\n
“Our business as mineral water producers is not only bottling this resource but above all preserving and protecting it,” he said.<\/p>\n
With an eye on sustainability, Danone Evian’s facility in Évian-les-Bains, France, which boasts 14 production lines for 33 product variants, is undergoing a significant modernisation.<\/p>\n
Schneider Electric is at the forefront, modernising Danone Evian’s electrical installations, bringing tangible improvements.<\/p>\n
A sustainable partnership in motion<\/strong><\/p>\n Danone Evian’s objective has been to enhance its bottling practices for safety, sustainability and efficiency.<\/p>\n • Increasing energy efficiency to achieve sustainability goals<\/p>\n • Reducing CO\u2082 emission by adopting circularity<\/p>\n • Controlling operating budget while achieving the highest possible uptime<\/p>\n • Maintaining the continuity of operations during modernisation work<\/p>\n Through a well-orchestrated plan, Schneider Electric took a holistic approach, starting with an EcoConsult audit to assess needs and identify upgrades, leading to substantial updates, including the introduction of advanced Schneider hardware solutions and the eco-friendly disposal of outdated equipment.<\/p>\n “As our clients and other global enterprise companies scale up their sustainability capabilities, we anticipate a growing need for precision technology and tools required to meet their evolving needs,” added Steve Wilhite, President, Schneider Electric Sustainability Business. <\/p>\n Groundbreaking outcomes and future directions<\/strong><\/p>\n The upgrade has revolutionised Danone Evian’s production lines, enabling real-time monitoring and analysis of energy usage, which informs sustainable decisions that enhance efficiency and reduce carbon footprint.<\/p>\n • 34% reduction of energy in KWh per 1000 bottle preforms<\/p>\n • Estimated savings of 70 metric tons of CO\u2082 and 700m³ of water saved<\/p>\n • 14 production lines, 33 product types, from 75 centilitres glass bottles to the six-litre carboys<\/p>\n Opting to modernise rather than replace has saved considerable material, water and carbon dioxide emissions, underscoring the project’s sustainability impact. Thanks to Schneider’s EcoFit, Danone Evian has avoided manufacturing eight tonnes of material, saving 700m³ of water and 70 tons of CO\u2082. <\/p>\n The partnership between Schneider Electric and Danone Evian, founded on shared sustainability values, promises further advancements in environmentally friendly manufacturing practices.<\/p>\n Media Contact<\/span>
