• Small gestures build more sustainable cities: we do our bit by informing consumers about packaging management. A small gesture of communication that promotes recycling.

We know that responsible production is necessary for responsible consumption. That is why sustainability is present across every step of our production process:

• Selection of raw materials
• Safety assessment
• Supplier approval
• Environmental management system (ISO 14001)
• Product recall procedure
• Consumer information
• Design of sustainable formulas and packaging
• Quality management system (ISO 9001)

• As an industry, we are aware of the impact of our decisions on climate change. That is why we take the necessary measures to continue working under conditions of responsible energy consumption, drafting energy-efficient projects and acquiring energy-efficient machinery.

• The chemistry of the oceans is the responsibility of all, especially in our industry. And caring for the land ecosystems we live with directly impacts our health, quality of life and biodiversity balance. Protecting these sources of wellbeing and wealth starts with the selection of raw materials and ongoing and comprehensive safety assessments extended to our suppliers. This is reflected in the environmental management system governing our processes (ISO 14001).
