At Sicolsa we use induction furnaces, a clean technology that does not burn fossil fuels or generate direct CO₂ emissions. Unlike coal- or gas-fired furnaces, which can emit up to 300 tons of CO₂ for every 100 tons of molten metal, our processes are more environmentally friendly and reinforce our commitment to sustainability.
We periodically monitor the gases that are emitted into the atmosphere, verifying compliance with permissible parameters.
Scrap is our main raw material and an essential resource in our production process. Its recycling is key to the circular economy, as it extends the useful life of materials. In this way, we not only optimize the use of resources, but also reaffirm our commitment to sustainability and environmental protection.
In addition, we optimize the use of all raw materials in our operations, reincorporating reusable compounds. Thus improving the efficiency of the production system and minimizing the exploitation of natural resources, reaffirming our commitment to responsible and sustainable manufacturing.
We are aware of the crucial importance of water and energy, so we actively encourage a culture of saving and efficient use through awareness campaigns that promote responsible practices throughout the organization.
In our company, we assume a comprehensive environmental responsibility in the management of all the waste we generate. We prioritize the use and recycling of reusable materials and ensure the responsible and safe disposal of waste that cannot be recovered, thus minimizing our environmental impact.
