Sustainability

Our purpose in 2022 will be to compensate for the carbon footprint that we generate as a company through reforestation in different rural areas of the department. We are aware of the importance of sustainability in our productive process, we are aimed at finding new strategies to minimize the impact on the environment.

Our commitment is to work daily to achieve a more sustainable world through different activities:

Emissions

We regularly monitor the gases that are emitted into the atmosphere, verifying compliance with the permissible parameters.

Raw
materials

In our production process we maximize the use of raw materials by returning material to our productive process that can be used more than once. Helping reduce the exploitation of natural resources.

Water - Energy

We are aware of the importance of these resources in our daily activities, that is why we promote culture in the care of these through different activities.

Waste

Our environmental responsibility is focused on the integral management of all the waste that as a company we generate. We use those that can be recycled and responsibly dispose those that do not have more utility.
