Duvel Moortgat

Look at what our fantastic colleagues at Firestone Walker just announced! With the launch of a brand-new CO₂ recovery system at their Paso Robles facility, they are capturing approximately 4 million pounds of CO₂ every year that would otherwise have been released, and instead putting it to use in tank purging, beer carbonating and packaging. This initiative links directly with the Duvel Moortgat Group’s sustainability ambitions. By turning a by-product of fermentation into a resource, we are reducing emissions, optimising resource use and advancing our collective journey towards carbon neutrality!

Normally, Duvel red or Chouffe yellow are our favorite colors, but for Pink Ribbon Belgium, we made an exception!   In October, our colleagues across Duvel Moortgat’s breweries and offices joined forces to add a touch of pink and raise awareness for the fight against breast cancer.   From pink shirts to matching accessories, our teams showed their support for everyone affected by breast cancer, resulting in these heartwarming pictures. Cheers to our wonderful colleagues who joined in and helped share the message!

Supporting passion and purpose! Through Vocatio, €10,000 grants are awarded annually to young people driven by a strong calling in fields ranging from science and art to social impact. This mission perfectly reflects our core values at Duvel Moortgat: passion, entrepreneurship, and social engagement. We therefore support a laureate each year whose project is especially close to our hearts. For 2025, our laureate is Simon Overdeput, founder of RENO Voetbal, a social-sportive project that brings people with and without a migration background together through football. What began in a Fedasil centre in Ghent has grown into a warm, diverse community where everyone is welcome on and off the court.

Brewing great beer goes hand in hand with caring for people and the planet.   That’s why we’ve set ourselves a bold ambition: reducing our Scope 1 & 2 emissions by 42% by 2030 (compared to our 2022 baseline). A key milestone on this journey is the recent commissioning of CO₂ capture installations in our three largest breweries in Belgium, California and the Czech Republic. By recovering and reusing CO₂, our Scope 1 emissions are reduced by 15% (compared to 2022). This makes a direct contribution to our target and accelerates our efforts under the pillar 'reducing our carbon footprint'.   And we’re not stopping here. From renewable energy and regenerative agriculture to lighter packaging and sustainable logistics: every step brings us closer to a more sustainable future for beer. 📖 Want to read more about how and why we are reducing our carbon footprint? https://lnkd.in/e_PSbfba     (Scopes, emissions, percentages… if it all sounds like rocket science, just remember this: at Duvel Moortgat, we’re doing everything we can to make sure your favorite beers keep flowing for many years to come.)

At Duvel Moortgat, we believe the future of brewing depends on how we work with the land today.   That is why we are committed to supporting regenerative barley, grown using farming practices that restore soil health, strengthen biodiversity, and secure resilient harvests for generations to come.   Together with Carlsberg Group and Brussels Beer Project, our Sustainability Director Peter Willaert recently joined Soil Capital to discuss how the brewing sector can support farmers in this transition. While each brewery has a different scale and approach, one thing is clear: regeneration is about more than sustainability. It is about creating a supply chain that works for farmers, brewers, and consumers alike.   The real heroes? Those are the farmers who are already leading the way. Their willingness to innovate is what makes lasting change possible.   Read the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/g8GQcbWp Simon Boas Hoffmeyer Olivier de Brauwere
