Marcopol. With care for the environment
Marcopol is a company that goes beyond traditional business practices by combining the highest quality of products and services with a deep commitment to environmental protection. Thanks to a series of innovative actions, the Marcopol team continuously works on minimizing the impact of our activities on the ecosystem. We present processes that help us achieve this mission.
CO2 Emissions Reduction: Switching to a Hybrid Fleet
In the fight against climate change, reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, the main culprit of this global challenge, is crucial. As an example of direct CO2 emission reduction, Marcopol has decided to replace its transportation fleet with hybrid vehicles. This change contributes to a significant reduction in CO2 emissions while ensuring transportation efficiency.
As a result, Marcopol is becoming a leader in implementing sustainable transport practices, which are an essential part of our ecological strategy.
Innovation in Heating: Heat Recovery from Production
Owning our own heat-treating facility, we generate significant amounts of heat. The collaboration between the Electrical Department and Maintenance has enabled us to redirect this heat for heating social spaces for our employees, showcasing an effective use of resources.
Carbon Footprint: Individual Responsibility
We have taken on the challenge of calculating our carbon footprint for the year 2023 to better understand and reduce our environmental impact:
Scope 1: 646.6 Mg
CO2 eq Scope 2: 2381.8 Mg CO2 eq
Total: 3028.4 Mg CO2 eq
Analyzing this data allows us to act more consciously in our reduction efforts.
Transport Revolution: Marcopol Invests in Ecological Solutions
Aiming to optimize costs and reduce the carbon footprint, we have introduced innovative methods of sorting and transporting cargo. Using Double Deck linear cars maximizes cargo space utilization, which translates into reduced fuel consumption and lower CO2 emissions. Our actions are also supported by regular driver training in economical driving, which further contributes to increased fuel efficiency and reduced overall environmental impact. As a result, Marcopol is becoming a leader in implementing sustainable transport practices, which are an essential part of our ecological strategy.
Recycling and Social Responsibility: Daily Practice at Marcopol
We prioritize recycling, segregating waste, and using ecological fillers for transport cartons, made from recycled paper.
Marcopol understands that lasting success depends not only on financial performance but also on having a positive impact on society. Our corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities include supporting the development of the local community through various educational initiatives and cooperation with local organizations. We are also committed to promoting decent working conditions for our employees, which includes not only ensuring competitive wages and benefits but also focusing on safety and hygiene at work. Regular safety training is an integral part of our HR policy, ensuring that every employee is aware of the best safety practices and procedures.
In Marcopol, CSR activities are closely integrated with our business operations. Developing business strategies, we always consider their potential social and environmental impact. By doing so, we not only build value for everyone associated with our company but also contribute to building a sustainable future.
