Sustainability Committed from the outset

Saica 2025: Contributing to sustainable development goals

We join the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and align our Saica 2025 Strategic Plan and our future commitments with them. We believe that a sustainable future is possible.

ODS 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure

ODS 12: Sustainable Production and Consumption

SDG 3: Health and Well-being At Grupo Saica we always seek to ensure the health and well-being of all our employees as well as all those who enter our centres. Our goal is to ensure the health and well-being of all.

Circular Economy: the core of our business

Integrating sustainability into our strategy has enabled us to expand our business model by adopting the circular economy as the driving force to achieve a more responsible production model.

Corrugated paper and cardboard cycle

We recover paper and cardboard waste and reintroduce it over and over again into the production cycle. Paper and cardboard waste is recycled in our factories to become 100% recycled paper reels that will give rise to new packaging in the corrugated cardboard plants. In this way we ensure that waste is converted into new products, thus avoiding it being sent to landfill.

Low Density Polyethylene Cycle

We recycle low-density polyethylene (LDPE) waste, transforming it into pellets that are later used in the packaging, construction, agriculture or automotive industries in the form of recyclable film, thus reducing the virgin pellets consumed by our clients.

Waste energy recovery

We give a second life to the non-hazardous waste generated in the paper manufacturing process. This waste, together with that from external origin, mainly biomass, is used as fuel to generate the thermal energy necessary for the production process or to produce electricity that is exported to the grid, replacing natural gas.

Sustainability report

Our commitment to the circular economy is expressed through the every two years publication of the Sustainability Report as the maximum exponent of our spirit and our responsible management.
