More Green: For Our Planet

Our MORE GREEN pillar encompasses environmental initiatives that consider many different aspects: adopting measures to avoid water and air pollution, using renewable energy, reducing waste and creating environmentally friendly products, building facilities close to nature to provide habitats for a variety of plants and animals, encouraging “green” behavior of our employees, as well as implementing certified systems for environmental protection and energy management. Our focus is on protecting natural resources, including clean water and our path to carbon neutrality in our operations.
