Resource Efficiency

Resource efficiency aims to optimize the use of materials, energy, and water across all processes, reducing waste and minimizing environmental impact. This pillar promotes smart, sustainable management that maximizes the value of every resource.

Water Saving and Efficiency Program

  • Installation of water-saving devices.

  • Rainwater harvesting for use in production processes.

  • Daily inspections to detect leaks.

  • Daily water consumption logging at the production plant.

Energy Saving and Efficiency Program

  • Use of LED lighting.

  • Maximization of natural light in workspaces.

  • Ongoing monitoring of energy and water consumption.

Circular Economy

The circular economy aims to reduce waste and extend the useful life of resources.

We have implemented various initiatives, including:

  • Donating used uniforms to vulnerable communities through a partner foundation.

  • Since 2021, we have had a reverse logistics strategy for paint containers.

  • We’ve implemented projects to minimize the generation of hazardous waste.

  • We conduct awareness campaigns for all employees.

  • We participate in programs like “Caps for Life” and “Bottles of Love”.

  • Some of our hazardous waste is recovered or repurposed.

  • On average, we recover 95% of all our waste.

  • We perform daily inspections of waste separation at ecological stations.

  • We reuse cleaning cloths in our processes.

  • We develop projects aimed at reducing our consumption of raw materials and supplies.
