WE ARE COMMITED TO PRODUCING
SUSTAINABLY
All our sites are using 100% reweable energies
Since 2015, our factory in Burgos, Spain, has reduced its C02 emissions by improving energy efficiency on-site and using 100% renewable energies thanks to a biomass power plant and solar panels.
Reducing water consumption
Since 2017, our Burgos, Spain, production facility has been a “waterloop factory.” This means that 100% of the water used for production processes is recycled and reused in a closed loop. External network water is only used in the composition of products or for employees’ day-to-day needs. In 2020, the factory saved 32 million liters of water.
