THE ENVIRONMENT WE LIVE IN

As we are part of the forestry and civil construction sector discussions, our work involves:
  • Invest in research and development of eco-efficient products and packaging replacement
  • Increase the consumption of renewable energy at the expense of the use of fossil fuels
  • Seek alternatives for waste reuse
  • Align with international criteria, certifications and initiatives for responsible forest management, management of greenhouse gas emissions with a focus on reduction (CDP, GHG Protocol, science-based targets) and climate risks (TCFD).

Some Highlights:

  • We have an Environmental Management System at our operational units for monitoring indicators, managing risks, complying with legislation and mobilizing employees
  • More than 140 thousand hectares of planted forests and conservation areas in Brazil and Colombia
  • We participated in the Working Group on Biodiversity of the Brazilian Tree Industry (IBÁ) and in the Paulista Forestry Forum
  • We carry out public consultations on Areas of High Conservation Value (HCVA)
  • Dexco's 67% adherence to the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations in an initial review of our practices.

Our Emissions

The guidelines of the Brazilian GHG Protocol Program are used to account for our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In 2020 and 2021, we made progress in determining the scope 3 of the units in Brazil and Colombia, especially in emissions from waste disposal and from the manufacture of our raw materials.

Balance

Positive Carbon Balance

We are committed to ensuring sustainable growth by maintaining a positive carbon balance until 2030, even with growth and the acquisition of new businesses;

In Colombia, we participate in the Carvida Dexco-Bônus, Carbono pela Vida program, through the removal of carbon by the forests maintained in the country, which guaranteed, in 2021, the generation of a bonus of almost 600 thousand tons of CO²eq.

Energy matrix – eco-efficiency in processes in Brazil and Colombia

For 2025, we aim to reduce the relative consumption of energy in all our operations, considering the energy matrix of each unit.

Waste Management

In 2021:

Decrease from 17% to 7% in the proportion of waste sent to landfills in the last five years;

• We offset 22% of all packages that were circulated throughout 2020 and that reached our consumers throughout Brazil;

• The percentage of recycled and/or reused waste in the four Ceramic Tiles units increased from 93.4% to 98.7%.
