PiovanGroup sustainability achievements

ESG - Sustentabilidade Ambiental

Plastic is much more recyclable than you think; in fact, many of the plastic polymers can potentially be recycled into new products while minimising environmental pollution. 

Plastic has a low environmental impact in the production phase due to its relatively low melting temperature and light weight. It also has a low impact on scarce resources as it derives from processing waste, if virgin, or from recycled material (unlike other packaging, such as paper that can contribute to deforestation).  

The Group is increasingly focusing on solutions for the recovery of post-consumer plastic and its processing. We are constantly working with the biggest industry players to offer innovative solutions using recycled or biodegradable plastic.

WASTE MANAGEMENT

The amount and type of waste produced by an organisation represent the consequences of activities necessary for production and operations. It is essential to understand where in the value chain this waste is generated in order to better understand its impacts and implement actions to mitigate its effects and to take measures to promote circularity.

During 2023, 1,303 t of waste were collected, of which 1,184 tons were non-hazardous and 118 tons hazardous. 50% of non-hazardous waste was recycled in 2023.

ESG - Sustentabilidade Social

The quality of what we do reflects the quality of the people who work with us. People who know they can count on an organisation that motivates each employee, enhances their talents, and enhances their skills
