Sustainability
Frequent concerns about the scarcity of resources, climate change and the correct disposal of waste have daily awakened the public and private sectors, as well as consumers, to adapt to a sustainable evolution of society and the economy.
And we, at Engeflex, act as leaders in the development of plastic solutions and constantly seek innovations that aim to promote the sustainable development of our products.
Our portfolio includes thousands of standard or custom formulations, allowing us to be present in the most varied segments, such as: food, hygiene and cleaning, automotive, furniture, electronics, sports, disposables, housewares, cosmetics, toys, agriculture, among many others.
Specifically in the agribusiness sector, our additives improve crop performance through the use of plasticulture, responsible for drastically reducing water and energy consumption, in addition to contributing to the rapid growth and strengthening of the plantation. This reduction is promoted through the control of particularities, such as: luminosity; condensation; fungi and bacteria; resistance; radiation etc.
We also have a line of products free of heavy metals and extremely relevant in the application of recycled polymers. Furthermore, all our leftovers from the industrial process are 100% reused, minimizing losses and extraction of raw materials.
Engeflex is a conscious company and is concerned with meeting the needs of its customers and, at the same time, reducing the impacts caused to the environment. Therefore, it adheres to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (United Nations) aligned with the 2030 agenda:
ODS 02 - Zero hunger and sustainable agriculture: Increasing agricultural productivity and sustainable food production are crucial to help alleviate the perils of hunger.
Through our plastic films, we guarantee food safety from packaging to the transport of goods. The plasticulture produced by Agroflex promotes sustainable agriculture by reducing resources (water - energy - pesticides - impacts on the soil - etc.)
ODS 06 - Clean water and sanitation: Ensure access to water and sanitation for all.
The recycling of industrial chips contributes to less water capture in its industrial processes, contributing to cleaner and more sustainable production.
ODS 08 -Decent work and economic growth: Promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, employment and decent work for all.
In addition to generating jobs, Agroflex add new technologies to its products based on the principles of sustainability. Part of this is the use of "green" resins from renewable sources and the possibility of recycling our products after their use by 100%. In addition, Agroflex offers safe and secure environments for its employees.
ODS 09 - Industry, innovation and infrastructure: Build resilient infrastructure, promote sustainable industrialization and foster innovation.
Agroflex invests in research to develop quality products that meet the needs of farmers and cause less impact on the environment. Being aligned with innovation and infrastructure.
ODS 12 - Responsible consumption and production.
Our flexible plastic films reduces food waste both in packaging and and through protected cultivation in the harvests. Our production has zero waste, since the chips are transformed back into resins and reinserted in the process.
