MANAGEMENT | Integral for an efficient and responsible production process


Environment

The policy of Fundiciones Garbi defines as strategic line the integration of the company in its environmental and social environment. To minimize the environmental impact of our activity, we deploy important annual plans of action, including: investments, improvements, training, etc.

Optimizing the use of natural resources and recycling the excesses of material in the different processes are the main objectives for our manufacturing processes.

This curiosity drives Fundiciones Garbi in finding integral solutions for the sector. An example of this is its active contribution to the creation of the company Ecofond, whose objective was and still is the recycling of foundry sands.



Since 2008 Garbi owns the Integrated Environmental Authorization, and is currently developing the needed actions to meet the requirements established by norm ISO 14001:2004.
