想想您所出售／購買的啤酒的碳足跡以及對環境的影響。試減少、再用及循環再造。
愈接近啤酒的釀造地點，從環境、經濟以及社會角度來看也是愈好的。生力的產品組合中有7個品牌是在元朗酒廠釀造和包裝的。
桶啤是以耐用和可循環再用的不鏽鋼桶包裝。銷售／購買香港生力分銷的桶啤就更好。香港生力的桶啤系統使用的二氧化碳是在元朗酒廠釀酒過程中小心回收的。銷售／購買我們的桶啤就會幫助減少二氧化碳排放到大氣層中。
在包裝環保方面，鋁罐僅次於桶啤，因為它在香港的回收率很高。樽裝在香港由於回收率很低兼大部份被棄置在堆填區，所以最不環保。香港生力有一個綠色設計項目來減少包裝物料及/或使用較環保的包裝物料而不損我們產品的信譽。
假如您從事啤酒的銷售，鼓勵客人直接從罐或樽飲用。假如您是消費者，避免使用玻璃杯飲用。這樣做可免除清洗及烘乾啤酒杯所使用的能源和資源。再者，直接從樽或罐飲用啤酒也更具型格！
對於因供應生啤或出於安全考慮而不允許使用罐裝和瓶裝啤酒的活動，香港生力選擇採用水性塗層一次性紙杯。這種紙杯不含塑膠，具備可回收及可生物降解的特性。
The closer to home a beer is brewed, the better from an environmental, economic and social perspective. Within SMBHK’s portfolio, we have 7 brands that are brewed and packaged in our Yuen Long brewery.
Draught beers are packaged in stainless steel kegs that are long-lasting and re-usable. Better yet, sell / buy draught beer distributed by SMBHK. The SMBHK draught beer system uses the CO2 carefully recovered from the brewing process in our Yuen Long brewery. By selling / buying our draught beer, you will be helping us reduce the release of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Aluminum cans come second in terms of eco-friendly packaging as it has a high recycling rate in Hong Kong. Bottles in Hong Kong come last as it has the lowest recycling rate and most of them end up in the landfill. In SMBHK, we have a green design program which endeavors to reduce packaging materials and/or use eco-friendlier packaging materials without compromising the integrity of our products.
If you are in the business of serving beer, encourage your customers to drink from the can or the bottle. If you are a consumer, do away with glass. By doing so, energy and resources used in washing and drying beer glasses are totally avoided. Beside, it is so much cooler to drink from the bottle or can! SMBHK has stopped providing glasses or plastic cups in events that we sponsor
When plastic cups are needed, please choose recyclable and degradable cups. In SMBHK, for events where plastic cups are needed because draught beers are being served or cans and bottles are not allowed for safety reasons, we use 100% degradable cups made from corn starch.
