Convent Capital

Samen maken we impact – NL Cares x Convent Capital   Vandaag zetten we graag onze partner Convent Capital in het zonnetje! Al drie jaar werken we met hen samen aan betekenisvol vrijwilligerswerk, en wat deze samenwerking zo bijzonder maakt, is de manier waarop zij maatschappelijke betrokkenheid écht integreren in hun bedrijfscultuur.   Bij Convent Capital is vrijwilligerswerk geen eenmalige activiteit, maar een structureel onderdeel van het werk. Elke medewerker zet zich maar liefst zes keer per jaar in voor een ander – van teamactiviteiten en grote events zoals De Spelen en De WinterFAIR tot individuele inzet via onze vrijwilligersagenda. Door een zorgvuldig samengesteld jaarprogramma bereikt Convent Capital uiteenlopende doelgroepen en thema’s, wat niet alleen impact maakt in de samenleving, maar ook intern inspirerend werkt!   Bij Convent Capital is vrijwilligerswerk zo vanzelfsprekend dat het zelfs deel uitmaakt van het sollicitatieproces. Nieuwe collega’s kunnen niet wachten om mee te doen!   Als CSR-partner zorgen wij ervoor dat vrijwilligerswerk binnen bedrijven moeiteloos en effectief verloopt. Van strategisch meedenken tot operationele invulling - wij regelen alles, zodat onze partners zich volledig kunnen focussen op de ervaring en de impact.   Wil jij ook ontdekken hoe jouw organisatie duurzaam vrijwilligerswerk kan omarmen? Neem contact op met Stijn via stijn@nlcares.nl en laten we samen impact maken!

📣 Royal Avebe and ChainCraft announce strategic collaboration to convert residual potato juice into biobased chemicals using fermentation technology. 🌱🏭 ChainCraft, a pioneer in biotechnology processes for circular chemicals, and Avebe, a global leader in potato-based starch and protein innovations, are proud to announce a huge step towards a strategic collaboration by entering into a Heads of Agreement. This partnership will focus on converting Avebe’s residual potato juice into high-value circular fatty acids and fertilizers through ChainCraft’s innovative fermentation technology. Ter Apelkanaal, Groningen, on and near the premises of Avebe is in picture as a first of its kind factory. David Fousert, CEO at Avebe: “We are excited to partner with ChainCraft and take this next step in our sustainability journey. Leveraging the fermentation technology of ChainCraft, potato juice, a byproduct of our production, will be transformed into circular products such as fatty acids and fertilisers. So for Avebe this collaboration ensures more circularity and also saves energy. It contributes to the further creation of efficient production processes. Which ultimately has a positive effect on our members' earning capacity. For the northern part of the Netherlands, this collaboration means a more sustainable agricultural sector and region. And it also contributes to more employment opportunities in the north.” #RoyalAvebe #ChainCraft #collaboration

Last Friday, Convertus Group, together with York Region (The Regional Municipality of York) celebrated the groundbreaking of the Convertus York Biofuel Facility in East Gwillimbury. This state-of-the-art facility is a significant step in our commitment to closing the loop for a better future by transforming organic waste into renewable energy. The Convertus York facility will be the first large-scale biofuel facility in Ontario to integrate liquid CO2 capture technology. It is designed to generate between 250,000 and 350,000 GJ of Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) each year, enough to power approximately 5,000 homes. In addition, it will produce around 155,000 tonnes of fertilizer, converting curbside green bin waste into nutrient-rich fertilizer for local agriculture. Thank you very much to everyone who attended and celebrated this milestone with us, including our partners, GHD, and Bird Construction! We are thrilled to embark on this journey toward a more sustainable future!
