Green Guides wins German Sustainability Award

As a member of the MEDICE Health Family, Green Guides GmbH is committed to optimizing kitchen processes through sustainable practices. To promote ecological health, it focuses on reducing food waste and balancing meals based on health, climate, and environmental aspects.

The jury recognized the company for its role as a driving force behind a data-driven and resource-efficient food industry. The company's FOODPRiNT4U tool was highlighted as part of the award. It assesses the ecological and health impacts of individual dishes and provides real-time suggestions for optimizing meal planning. This and other innovative approaches help catering businesses to significantly reduce food waste, save resources, and operate economically at the same time.

“This award is a great honor for us and also an incentive,” says Torsten von Borstel, managing director of Green Guides. “We want to show that sustainability and economic efficiency can go hand in hand. The award encourages us to continue on this path and support even more companies in making the transition.” The jury emphasizes that Green Guides' approach is exemplary and can be transferred to other sectors. The company is thus setting an example for the entire industry.

“Scientific evidence shows that environmental factors can influence people's health. For this reason, the MEDICE Health Family takes ecological aspects into account across various areas of its activities. We combine this perspective with our understanding of health, recognizing the interconnections between the environment and human well-being. Our goal is to contribute to health-promoting living conditions in the long term, benefiting both present and future generations.”, adds Dr. Katja Pütter-Ammer.
