Since the beginning of the year, Leiber GmbH has been setting up an energy management system. With the introduction of this system, the specialist in refining of brewers’ yeast has set itself the aim - in view of energy shortages and rising energy costs - of continuously improving energy performance and uncovering both major and minor ways of saving energy. 

Lower energy costs, higher energy efficiency and reducing total energy consumption from an economic point of view have now been certified by the independent testing service provider TÜV Rheinland with the issuing of the official certificate. Previously, an auditor from TÜV Rheinland had analysed the processes on site for two weeks before issuing the certificate. The employees were also involved in this and were made aware of efficient energy use during cross-departmental training sessions. 

Leiber has been committed to sustainable production for many years. The economical use of electricity and thermal energy is an integral component of Leiber\'s corporate strategy. With its own biogas plant and 2 micro gas turbines, the company produces about 35% of its electrical requirement and about 10% of the heat energy needed. In addition, the remaining 65% of electricity needs are covered entirely by renewable electricity from hydropower. The certificate in accordance with DIN EN ISO 50001:2012 now certifies that Leiber has efficient energy management and also makes a significant contribution to its international competitiveness. 

For more than 60 years, Leiber GmbH in Bramsche has been the leading manufacturer of specialty yeast products \\\"Made in Germany\\\". Using an innovative process, the natural raw material brewers’ yeast is processed to create high quality products that are used in the food industry, animal nutrition, nutritional supplements and biotechnology. With two locations in Germany, as well as production facilities in Poland and Russia, Leiber produces with over 180 dedicated employees brewers’ yeast and yeast extracts of the highest quality.
