Actually the DAP, what it does is to evaluate multiple environmental impacts, through an LCA (Life Cycle Assessment), it is a very transparent process, because it can also detect failures and inefficiencies in the processes, this document, what it does is to define a baseline of the impacts we have at this time, which allow us to draw and correct the plans that we have for the future. It was interesting to see that the results of consumption in the use of water, gave negative, this thanks to the water recycling system we have in our plant, we also saw that the carbon footprint, is very close to European standards.

The results were very interesting, the energy consumption for the manufacturing of our profiles is low, because only 190 degrees are needed for the extrusion process, in the industry of profiles of other materials, more energy and temperature are required. As I said before, we already have a baseline to improve and make the production of our products more efficient, we have a medium and long term plan, the goal is to be a carbon neutral product in 2050. We have three concrete actions, the first is to start increasing the use of recycled material in our profiles, this decreases much of the carbon footprint required in the extraction of raw materials, second, update equipment and technology that requires less energy consumption and greater efficiency in all manufacturing processes and finally, implement renewable energy within the plant, install photovoltaic panels, providing clean energy, which will lower the carbon footprint embedded in the product.
