Aware of the importance of its actions for maintaining a clean and healthy environment, JF Andrade goes beyond and carries out actions to minimize potential environmental impacts.
Around the company, eucalyptus trees have been planted, which are irrigated with water reused from the company's effluent treatment process. This increases the green area, promoting benefits to the environment, as well as allowing its use in renewable steam generation.
Investments have been made in a modern and efficient treatment system, capable of processing all the effluent generated by the company.
The treatment allows the reuse of the effluent in maintaining the green belt around the manufacturing area.
The firewood used by the company in its boiler comes from the Eucalyptus Reforestation. Thus, the company is aware of the origin of the wood.
The actions carried out by the company aim to reduce the environmental impacts arising from the activity, consciously using all the resources, giving them environmentally appropriate destinations and in compliance with current environmental legislation.
In addition to the actions described above, it is worth highlighting the Policy of Greater Efficiency and Less Waste, which involves monitoring the entire production process, with controls ranging from fleet maintenance to product quality control. Here are some examples:
In compliance with environmental legislation, the company conducts a semiannual report on atmospheric emissions, ensuring that gas emissions from its processes meet these criteria to protect the environment.
All machinery used by the company undergoes inspections and preventive maintenance to avoid loss of efficiency, which would result in longer operation times and lower production.
