OUR COMMITMENT
Reduce our Scope 1 and 2 Greenhouse Gas Emissions Intensity by 20 % by 2030.
As part of our efforts to mitigate climate change, we aim to reduce our own Greenhouse Gas emissions and continue to innovate and manufacture products that help customers reduce their carbon footprint. In alignment with external frameworks such as the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), we evaluate the risks and opportunities associated with climate change and the transition to a low-carbon economy.
“We can reduce our environmental impact by implementing closed-loop manufacturing processes, waste management systems.”
EDGAR BAENA
VICE PRESIDENT, OPERATIONS
PROTECTING WATER RESOURCES
We continuously strive to reduce our environmental impact and create value through improved operational efficiency, improvements in yields, and reduced use of resources, including water and energy.
We recognize the intrinsic link between climate change and water and have a holistic view of protecting and preserving our natural resources.

Reduce Waste and Water intensity by 10% by 2030
REDUCING WASTE GENERATION
We continue to improve our processes and reduce the generation of process residuals. Wherever possible, we seek to minimize waste by recycling or reusing process residuals such as catalysts, maintaining proper oversight of non-conforming products, and using our by products for fuel or other commercial applications.
