The company is investigating the conversion of lobster waste to bio-oil, a clean energy alternative.
Annually, we can produce a million pounds of lobster shell waste. All of our lobster shell is now composted.
Today, industry packaging is not recyclable. We are looking at alternatives for more earthfriendly shipping materials. For the future, the company is even investigating shipping sustainable lobsters in specially repurposed packaging made of processed lobster shell.
Every day the plant uses a minimum of 45,000 gallons of water during processing.
Our commitment is to recycle 100% of processing water by 2014 to dramatically reduce our burden on natural resources.
