ProducciĆ³n de contenedores industriales, reciclaje y reacondicionamiento
The Commitment of staying green.
La operaciĆ³n de reciclaje de envases industriales es inherentemente una operaciĆ³n verde. Reacondicionar un contenedor usado usa un tercio de la energĆa y genera una cuarta parte de la cantidad de residuos sĆ³lidos que fabricar un contenedor nuevo. Actualmente contamos con siete procesos independientes que minimizan nuestro impacto en el medio ambiente.
