In Cervic Environment, each of our steps is aligned with the commitment to a sustainable business project, betting on a circular economy business model.
These are some of the many actions we carry out to this end:
ECODESIGN
We apply in the products’s development, methodologies of Ecodesign and Finite Element Method in Engineering (FEM), obtaining environmentally friendly products, optimizing and minimizing the use of raw materials, maximizing the use of recycled materials, obtaining as a result sustainable products, which are highly durable and 100% recyclable at the end of their useful lives. Accordingly, Cervic Environment products are identified with the following seals:
CARBON FOOTPRINT
Cervic Environment has a carbon footprint reduction plan, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions at its facilities (offices, warehouses and production centers).
Cervic Environment has obtained, from the Spanish Office for Climate Change (Ministry for Ecological Transition and Demographic Challenge) the “Carbon Footprint Calculation Seal” and is registered in the “Carbon Footprint Registry, compensation and CO2 absorption projects”.
This shows the commitment and contribution of Cervic Environment to the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13 “Climate Action”, and the achievement of the 2030 Agenda.
RECYCLED MATERIALS
Cervic Environemnt continually strives to maximize the use of recycled materials, under the fundamental requirement of maintaining the high quality, functionality and aesthetics that characterize our products.
The galvanized steel used to manufacture Cervic Environment’s products contains a minimum of 15% to 25% recycled material in its composition.
The recycled plastic used to manufacture Cervic Environment’s products comes from 100% post-consumer recycled plastics, free of toxins.
The Wood Plastic Composite (WPC) used to manufacture Cervic Environment’s products contains 50% vegetal recycled material (rice husks).
More and more of our products contain and are made from a greater amount of recycled materials, and we even have products that are 90% made from recycled materials.
NON-POLLUTING RENEWABLE ENERGY
When manufacturing the products, Cervic Environment has a SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SYSTEM (Photovoltaic Solar Installation) at its facilities that does not produce greenhouse gases or polluting emissions.
RECYCLABILITY
The products manufactured by Cervic Environment are 100% recyclable at the end of their useful life. To facilitate proper recycling, they incorporate a QR code, which indicates each of the materials that make up the product, facilitating the selective separation at the end of the product’s useful life according to each type of material.
DIRECTIVE 2001/95/CE ON GENERAL SAFETY OF PRODUCTS
All Cervic Environment products comply with Directive 2001/95/CE, and have been developed under the a R&D Management System, certified by AENOR under the UNE 166.002 standard (registration number CERVIC-I+D+i-0004/06). Guaranteeing that the appropriate considerations in terms of safety, health and environmental protection have been taken into account in the design of the product.
DIGITALIZATION
Cervic Environment is carrying out an ambitious project of digitalization of all its processes, with the aim of reducing the use of paper to a minimum, not only in the global management of internal processes (administration, sales and production), but also in commercial materials and those accompanying the products supplied (installation and maintenance instructions), where paper has been replaced by QR codes.
ZERO WASTE
All waste generated in Cervic Environment’s daily operations is collected in a segregated manner and treated by specialized waste management companies, to be recycled, reused or revalued.
