Sustainable practices capable of ensuring environmental balance are increasingly valued in today’s world. Proof of this is that the number of companies with ISO 14001 certification, granted to companies that have an environmentally respectful management program and safe practices for the company and its consumers, has grown significantly.

In addition to contributing to a more balanced planet, caring for the environment is currently an essential requirement for companies to gain credibility and strengthen their brands. Especially because consumers are increasingly aware of everything they consume.

Discover sustainable practices that your company can adopt

The choice of suppliers must be made carefully, taking into account the social, economic and environmental values that are shared with commercial partners. Companies must choose to purchase products made with recyclable and environmentally friendly raw materials.

Companies should also seek to raise awareness among their employees about the importance of respecting the environment and adopting sustainable practices.

For example, the advancement of digital technology allows us to use less and less paper, thus contributing to the reduction of polluting gas emissions and the felling of trees. If it is extremely necessary, choose recycled paper.

Another sustainable practice is to adopt LED lighting, which means the company consumes less electricity, generating benefits for the planet and also reducing costs.

The use of alternative energy sources should also be sought — such as solar and wind energy.

Furthermore, recycling waste is an act of sustainability that should be increasingly adopted, as a company can collect kilos of waste per day.

Use rainwater with collection cisterns

Harvesting rainwater is very important for the environment. The conscious use of water brings many benefits to the environment and also saves on expenses.

Therefore, water collection systems are a great option for those seeking sustainability and wanting to make better use of natural resources. By installing them in your home or business, you can store water and use it for a multitude of applications, whether to water plants, fill the toilet flush basin or wash patios and sidewalks.

Affordable cost, the Tecnotri 750 L Cistern can be installed even in small spaces. With a cylindrical and compact model, rainwater collection cisterns adapt to small environments and bring savings of up to 50% in water consumption.

The vertical design allows you to store a large volume of water while taking up little space. The configuration and connection in modules expands the water reserve, according to the needs of each user.

Learn how rotomolded plastic contributes to preserving the environment

Due to its long useful life, the plastic pallet can be reused several times, as it is made of polyethylene and is fully recyclable. Therefore, it causes less environmental impact than wooden pallets.

plastic pallets are also lightweight, 100% recyclable, non-toxic, resistant to chemicals and have a useful life of over 10 years. Furthermore, they are washable and easy to clean.
By having characteristics such as lightness, resistance and constant weight, these products help to optimize logistics operations, enabling greater rationalization and standardization of the storage location, better use of physical space and acceleration of processes.

In addition, plastic pallets also do not require maintenance and favor a significant reduction in total logistics costs with non-reusable packaging in the short term.

Learn about plastic recycling efforts in Brazil

To meet the demand for more sustainable products and contribute to the balance of the environment, a lot of research has been carried out to make plastic a renewable and sustainable product.

Raw materials used in rotomolding, such as PVC and polyethylene, are recyclable and can be reused by the industry, resulting in a lower environmental impact during their life cycle.

The rotational molding process makes great use of raw materials, with low generation of residual stresses. In the rotomolding process, almost all Brazilian transformation companies – around 99% – have mills to recover leftovers from the production process, such as sludge, shavings and feed channels, according to research carried out by Plástico Industrial magazine.

Seeking to contribute to sustainability, the plastic processing industry has been promoting increasing efforts to recycle post-consumer materials, such as the development of bioplastics and the recycling of industrialized products.
