SUSTAINABILITY & RSC
We believe sustainability is a key element in our business model. We must be an essential change factor in order to sustain economic development, social well being and environmental protection.
Our social
and environmental commitments
Solving the problems that plague the planet and contributing to the improvement of the living conditions of our community is everyone’s responsibility.
Annually, the Group approves a Sustainability Report. We use as framework the 17 Sustainable Development Goals for 2030, passed by the United Nations in 2015. We focus our efforts in those goals we clearly can have an bigger impact on, and we establish 7 specific and measurable objectives for them:
2023 UPDATE
I. Implementing an Equality Plan for each of our sites, that must be formulated before the end of 2023.
III. Every site of the Group collaborates with at least one organization of shelter to less favored collectives, prioritizing those with proximity to our factories, thus contributing to inclusion within the communities we are a part of.
V. Duplicate the volume of recycled or reutilized material (3R) for 2025. In 2021 volume of purchases of 3R materials and delivery of materials for its proper recycling was 12,1% of total purchases, and we want to reach 25% in 2025.
A target of 20% has been set for 2023.
VII. For 2035 ALONARTI/ ARTISTICA Group must reduce CO2 emissions scopes 1 and 2 per produced tube with respect to the levels in 2015 from 18,37gr CO2 per 1000 tubes to 10 grams per 1000 tubes. That is, a total of 46% , exceeding the 43% the Paris Protocol aspires to, and preventing the emission of 1.550 ton of CO2 every year.
II. Offering all our employees in the ALONARTI/ ARTISTICA Group a real career plan.
Commitment to pay a “Living Wage” for all our employees, enough to assure a decent standard of living for them and their families.
The objective assesment system for the maintenance staff has been implemented.
IV. Proper management of 100% of residues, both dangerous and non-dangerous.
VI. Changing our energy origin mix towards sustainable sources. In 2021, 43,3% of our consumption of electricity came from renewable energy sources. We want to see that in 2024 our electricity energy balance will have a 70% coming from renewable sources.
VIII. Implementing a whistleblowing channel for ALONARTI AND SOCIEDADE ARTISTICA before the end of 2023
