Alexander Grappa’s dedicated commitment to renewable energy sources has been certified by GREENER, a trademark that belongs to SUM, a company owned by Unindustria Treviso, Confindustria Venezia and Consorzio Unindustria Multiutilities.
Geothermal heat harnesses natural heat from the earth, then converted to power the air-conditioning system. Water is extracted from a drilled hole in the ground, then transferred to a heat-pump unit, which converts the water into thermal energy. This renewable energy method, along with other alternative sources for electricity, conserves about 756 tons of CO2 per year.
A water recirculation system is used in the distillery to cut back on 5 million liters of water per distillation year. The water used in the distillation process is air cooled, then circulated in a closed-loop system. Additionally, the water purification system uses an industrial waste management treatment to deposit clean water back into the environment.
The grapes used to distill Alexander Grappa products are sourced from vines farmed using fertilizers only from organic origin. This preserves the integrity of the soil and saves approximately 500 kg of synthetic chemicals per year.
