Environmental Performance

The Latina facility achieved ISO 14001 certification in 2000, and achieved the health and safety management system certification OHSAS 18001 in 2002.
Top management chooses to implement and certify an EHS integrated management system. To build our integrated management system, we analyzed our environmental impact activities and the potential health and safety risks for the employees. After this initial analysis we defined objectives, quantified targets of improvement, and determined an action plan in order to attain the desired objectives. We developed policies, programs, and procedures to protect employees from any physical and chemical risk and to defend the natural ecosystem. For example, our biological wastewater treatment plant will allow us to decrease our environmental impact.
