ADM Milling UK
Research indicates that Covid-19 is driving consumer demands around transparency as more people have become aware of supply chain issues that could potentially impact the health and safety of themselves, employees and their local community. Therefore, beyond “what’s in it?”, consumers want to know “where is it from?”, “how was it made?”, “who was the farmer or producer?”, and “how sustainable is the packaging?” Discover how ADM’s single partner solutions give you an edge in achieving your sustainability goals and meeting consumer expectations.
ADM gives you an edge in achieving your sustainability goals and meeting consumer expectations. Together, we can help amplify your efforts across all facets of sustainability.
ADM has a variety of programs that work directly with farmers, offering transparent and traceable sourcing solutions, and support sustainable agricultural practices that improve the health of our planet, and the well-being of people and communities.
Through our operations we are reducing our environmental impact, and developing new products and solutions such as renewable materials that further help you reduce water, waste and energy use.
Work with ADM to unlock an unmatched range of sustainable solutions that drive impact and improve our world.
Brands can meet consumer expectations around ethical and sustainably sourced products by expanding sustainable packaging initiatives, ensuring shorter supply chains and supporting local communities. Through initiatives such as the ADM Field to Flour Growers Club, ADM’s 80-year old heritage in producing natural ingredients (including colours and flavours made from natural fruit and vegetable sources) and its clean-label friendly solutions, ADM delivers integrated, vertical connections from farm to finished product. We provide the foundation for wholesome nutrition with simple ingredients sourced from nature, supported by our technical know-how and focused on solving the most exacting baking challenges.

“Strive 35” is the companywide global initiative target to significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, water usage, energy intensity* and waste to landfill by the year 2035.
We strive to find greener power solutions and improve energy efficiency and have made great advances in this throughout the past 5 years. With the implementation of an energy management system throughout our flour milling locations we’ve created a culture of energy usage monitoring and saving. Since 2017, Knottingley flour mill has received energy from a hydroelectric power station on the nearby River Aire. This commitment has been further enhanced by our commitment from 2021 to purchase all of our electricity from 100% renewable sources, thereby reducing our GHG emissions from milling operations to almost zero .
We have also made commitments to strive for zero emissions when it comes to our vehicles. We have already converted 67% of our distribution fleet to cleaner Euro6 engines, and this process will continue over the months to come.
* Energy intensity is a measure of how many kWh it takes to make 1 tonne of product.
