Is Sustainable Attainable? We think so....

Public interests are now more environmentally conscious than ever before. Consumers are aware of the long-term consequences of widespread pollution and waste, and are demanding sustainable goods and services. In essence, sustainability is protecting our environment so that future generations can continue to benefit from its rich natural resources. Smart businesses are now “going green” for several reasons.

Green business practices are not difficult to implement and exist in a number of forms. Some choose to produce sustainable products, such as solar power equipment, that allow others to conserve resources. Others choose to implement environmentally-friendly methods of production, like organic farmers and manufacturers. On an even simpler level, businesses can reduce waste and utilize renewable energy.

In addition to benefiting the planet, “going green” may have hidden benefits for companies. According to a recent study, there is a correlation between sustainable business practices and better bottom lines. Despite the recent economic recession, the sales of green products and services increased drastically in recent years, especially in the realm of organic products. Over the last ten years, the market for organic products increased 238%, while the market for conventional products only increased 33%. Sustainable business practices are appealing to consumers! On another note, many green policies create efficiency and lower spending on energy and materials in the long run. 

RIBUS produces an entire line of sustainable, environmentally-friendly ingredients for your production needs. Our unique products are made from rice hulls and rice bran, which are oftentimes unused and wasted by the rice industry. Utilizing the entire rice grain reduces waste and promotes conservation.

RIBUS products are a natural replacement for common synthetic processing aids, and are listed as “Rice Extract” or “Rice Concentrate” on a food label. RIBUS ingredients can reduce costs and increase outputs in countless applications from extrusion to anti-caking!

Give consumers what they want – sustainable ingredients!
