2021 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT
Regarding energy consumption,
energy intensity, considering
energy consumption within
the organization, showed a
reduction when compared to the
previous year's result.
1As of 2021, data include Piraquê units.
This time, fuels considered refer to
processes of manufacturing units,
excluding fleet consumption. Occasional
sales of energy purchased on the free
market were not reported at this time.
For the purposes of calculating energy
intensity, tons of food produced exclude
wheat flour and bran, only clean wheat.
two 2020 data has been corrected to the GJ
measurement unit as compared to data
reported in the previous report. GRI 102-48

WATER AND
EFFLUENTS GI

The Company's management of
water resources and effluents
aims to ensure that all areas
involved take ownership
of relevant environmental
aspects and are committed
to achieving goals -, minimize
impacts and pay attention to
current legislation. Through an
Industrial Management System
(SGI) policy, M. Dias Branco sets
strategic goals to significantly
reduce water consumption at the
units.
These goals are proposed and
monitored by the Company's
Executive Office on an annual
basis, under the assumption
of sustaining good results.
Water consumption is one of
the performance and bonus
indicators for the environment
team and the Corporate Quality,
Safety and Environment
Management (QSMA). Among
other initiatives carried out
in the year, we highlight the
implementation of water
consumption indicators focused
on critical Brazilian regions,
for mapping possible risks of
shortages.
Our performance is in line
with SDG 6 (Clean Water and
Sanitation), with the definition
of priority indicators in
2021. Some of the activities
developed include: the reuse
of air conditioning water,
rainwater, and treated effluents;
the use of semi-automatic
faucets and double-flow
flushing; joint efforts to identify
possible leakage points and
solve them; and campaigns to
raise awareness about waste
reduction. Other aspects
considered by the Company
in the management of water
resources include: GRI 303-1, 303-2
Water withdrawal: water,
used as raw material, in
the processes of heating
and cooling, cleaning of
machines and utensils, comes
from rainwater sources,
concessionaires, water trucks
(third parties) and artesian
wells. For classifying the
water-stressed operation
areas, M. Dias Branco uses a
materiality study performed by
a company hired in 2019.
Discharge: the water that is
not added to the product is
transformed into a gaseous
effluent that is discharged
into the atmosphere, or into
a liquid effluent destined
for our own treatment or by
third parties. The impacts
caused by the consumption,
generation and discharge of
effluents are assessed using
a proprietary methodology
that follows the precepts of
ISO 14001. After identifying
impacts, monitoring and
actions are defined. M. Dias
Branco complies with all legal
standards related to the quality
of effluent discarge, both at the
federal, state and municipal
levels.
Involvement of stakeholders:
the Company carries
out employee rasing-
awareness campaigns and
communication actions with
stakeholders external sources,
reporting results related to
water and its management.
Company members are active
in River Basin Committees,
contributing to the proposition
of public policies and following
up on monitoring carried out
by the relevant agencies.
