Commercial Kitchen Sustainability

EcoChef is the premier program for commercial kitchen sustainability. Designed in partnership with leading culinarians, sustainability professionals, and educators as well as the Culinary Institute of America, EcoChef offers individual accreditation and kitchen certification at various levels.

The program encompasses and aligns with aspects of LEED, WELL, Energy Star, and other building certifications so you get double the benefits and recognition with the same work. There is also focus on how sustainability should lead to financial benefits and improved employee wellbeing (i.e. indoor air quality).

You can learn more at the EcoChef website and Sustain With Age is proud to be the primary U.S. provider of their Ambassador training.

Sustain With Age offers resources, strategy, and programming beyond training and education across energy, water, waste, refrigerants, and other emissions-related activities. You can learn more about our services offered here.

We are also happy to connect you with one of our many skilled vendors across a range of projects as well as test kitchens, product demos, and low- and no-cost pilots so you can see the financial benefits of our sustainability offerings before committing significant capital.
