On construction sites we have a key player who contributes to cleanliness and organization in favor of selective collection.<\/span><\/p>\n

At Emplavi, we carry the pillar of Sustainability in our <\/span>Quality Policy<\/span> of the company and put it into practice on construction sites. We seek to minimize environmental impacts by prioritizing selective collection with the separation of waste by type, with a focus on processing and recycling together with cooperative partners.<\/span> Waste recycling<\/b> Construction waste is mostly made up of high-quality materials. At Emplavi, we recycled around 40% of the total waste generated at our construction sites. To give you an idea, in Brazil, the average recycling rate is just 3% of discarded material.\u00a0<\/span> We know the importance of adopting a sustainable recycling model, and that is why we seek to process and donate our waste to cooperatives that make recycling possible, guaranteeing employment, income and dignity to hundreds of collectors involved in this chain.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span> The high recycling rate achieved on our construction sites is mainly due to the fact that we separate waste at its source: plastic, PVC pipes, cardboard, metal, wood, rubble, among others. The assistant responsible for carrying out this sorting and implementing sustainability procedures on our construction sites was affectionately nicknamed \u201cVerdinho\u201d.<\/span> Verdinho is responsible for providing guidance on how to correctly separate waste, organizing the Recyclable Storage Center and helping to clean the floors to ensure a good workplace. The importance of a clean, organized, safe worksite with standardized processes guarantees excellent benefits in productivity and better employee engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n

The construction industry is known for generating environmental impacts due to the inputs used. At Emplavi, we see an opportunity to minimize the generation of these impacts even within our construction site.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
