Corporate Responsibility

At Cozzoli, being environmentally responsible is, now more than ever, just as important as providing efficient, reliable, technologically advanced products and machinery. Cozzoli Machine Company is fully committed to meeting today’s challenges in protecting our environment, reducing waste, and improving our energy systems. To this end, our sustainability program minimizes costs, materials, time and energy expended while enabling us to maintain the highest quality standards in our manufacturing of precision built filling and packaging machinery for the pharmaceutical, chemical, cosmetic, food and beverage and E-Liquid industries.

Solar Energy

We have adopted a rooftop solar photovoltaic energy system atop our corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility. The state-of-the-art 336 kilowatt (kW) solar photovoltaic system features high efficiency solar panels, a non-penetrating racking system, and string-level monitoring capabilities. In addition to immediate and substantial financial savings for Cozzoli, the system provides significant environmental benefits as well. The system’s green electricity will yield environmental benefits equivalent to reducing Cozzoli’s CO2 footprint by over 540,000 lbs. per year, or planting over 63 acres of new trees.

Efficiency of Products

Among the various energy and water efficient machines we manufacture, our AW (washer) Series stands out as a prime example of Cozzoli’s efforts to conserve. The uniform washing permitted by upright positioning reduces the amount of cleaning media required, and the sanitary reclaim/recirculating system decreases water consumption by up to 80%. Segregated wash stations are designed to prevent cross contamination and resulting waste. Like all Cozzoli machines, the AW Series provides years of reliable, precise, efficient operation.

At Cozzoli, we also offer a variety of environmentally responsible alternatives for our machines, such as the flush in place option available on the RPF and RFL MRM series machines.

Energy Efficient lighting.

In an effort to reduce our carbon footprint further, we have replaced all of our shop lighting with energy efficient lighting. This change has reduced our electrical consumption by 6%.

Benefits of energy efficient lighting:

Provide more effective illumination.
Reduce electrical use by 62,400 kWh.
Prevent over 95,000 lbs. of carbon dioxide from being generated — equivalent to removing approximately 8 cars from the road or planting over 1,110 trees.

In The Community

Every year Cozzoli employees assist others in the community by contributing food items and monetary donations to the local Franklin Township Food Bank in November. Winter months are especially difficult for needy area families and these donations help provide meals at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Cozzoli Machine Company also helps support the American Red Cross in our community by donating clean, gently-used coats for needy area families. Winter coats and accessories (hats, scarves, mittens and gloves) are collected in December and proceeds go directly to our local American Red Cross.
