We take action today
To minimize the environmental impact of our operations
We understand that as our operations grow, we must become more efficient and innovative to reduce environmental impacts throughout the value chain. This is a journey of continuous and collective improvement, with many challenges ahead in a dynamic and exponential sector. But our focus remains clear: the time to act is now.
To accelerate the development of more efficient solutions and reduce the environmental footprint at every stage of the value chain, we focus on three pillars: sustainable mobility, energy management, and material circularity.
We manage the environmental impact of our operations through innovative and scalable solutions and track our carbon footprint in all three scopes, using globally recognized methodologies. Every year, we improve the calculation to make it more accurate and reflective of reality, and we also engage our suppliers in this process. This allows us to identify and focus on initiatives with the greatest impact.
In addition, in 2024, we completed the investment cycle of Regenera América, a program created to complement our emission reduction efforts. It has become a central part of our efforts to counter the effects of climate change, safeguard biodiversity, and enhance the well-being of local communities.
