Together to build a more sustainable tomorrow

In a world that is increasingly aware of the environmental impact, at Merytronic we are committed to business sustainability as a strategic axis. Our commitment to the environment translates into concrete actions that reduce our ecological footprint and promote a more responsible and efficient development model.

What are we doing for the environment?

Through a series of measures, we work to ensure that our daily business actively contributes to environmental protection.

Proof of our commitment is the renewal for another year of our ISO14001 environmental certification. This environmental management system implemented in our organisation promotes continuous improvement to reduce the consumption of natural resources, improve the sustainability of our products and a more efficient management of the waste we generate.

A further step in caring for the environment, as part of our awareness as an organisation, is the internal project we have started this year to calculate our carbon footprint.

Improving energy efficiency in our facilities

Implementing intelligent control systems, such as on/off scheduling of air conditioning, and double curtain wall cladding on the existing façade of our facility not only improves the architectural aesthetics, but also represents an improvement in energy efficiency. By improving indoor comfort, it reduces operating costs and actively contributes to the sustainability of the building.

Waste management and recycling

We carry out responsible waste management in all our areas, promoting selective separation and working with authorised waste managers for the appropriate treatment of electronic and industrial waste. In addition, we have recycling areas strategically distributed throughout our facilities, which facilitates the correct classification of materials and improves the efficiency of recycling processes.

Eco-design throughout the entire process of our products.

Eco-design is an essential part of our product development. From the earliest stages of design, we seek to minimise environmental impact throughout their life cycle: selecting sustainable materials, reducing energy consumption and facilitating recycling at the end of their use. This philosophy allows us to create more responsible solutions without compromising on quality or technical performance.

An example of this is the replacement of bubble wrap as protection in the final packaging of our products with recycled Kraft paper, a more environmentally friendly, recycled and 100% recyclable alternative.

Sustainable mobility

As part of our commitment to reducing emissions, we have installed new charging points for electric vehicles in the Boroa car park. The opening of our offices in the BAT tower also boosts sustainable mobility by facilitating the use of public transport or walking for those living in the centre of Bilbao. In addition, the teleworking option helps to minimise daily commuting, thus reducing the carbon footprint associated with transport.

KM0 policies

We continue with our policy of selecting local suppliers who share our values and environmental sustainability criteria, favouring a greener value chain.

Committed to the future

At Merytronic we believe that every action counts. That is why we promote a culture of respect for the environment throughout the organisation, encouraging the active involvement of all the people who form part of it. We continue to advance and improve our initiatives to build a cleaner, more efficient and committed future for generations to come.
