Résumé

Unilever, being one of the largest fast moving consumer goods companies in the world, is one of the largest end-users of refrigeration throughout its supply chain. In view of Unilever’s Sustainable Living Plan, application of natural refrigerants is strongly encouraged. Ammonia is the preferred refrigerant in its manufacturing facilities. Five value drivers called ’5C’, being ‘Core design, Carbon/costs, Cash, Capability & Compliance’ are defined and applied for continuous improvement of almost all processes in product manufacturing. A specific set of value drivers has been defined for ammonia refrigeration. These drivers provide an outlook for future trends, from a fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) end-user perspective. Increased focus on standardisation, modularisation, sustainability, leveraging scale of business, competence of personnel and process safety standard compliance are identified as common trends. In order to create a robust system across all the Unilever sites utilising ammonia refrigeration, these ‘5C’ value drivers form a consistent and integrated package attributing to value creation throughout the value chain. Global implementation of this package is structured through global and regional communities of practice.
