Sustainability strategy
Commitment to Sustainability: modelling a responsible future
At the Levantina Group, we are committed to sustainability: we are working to integrate responsible practices into each process, from extraction to manufacturing. This approach not only reduces the environmental footprint, but also ensures the exceptional quality of the stone.
Climate change and energy
With an annual reduction in its carbon footprint of 18.35% and the use of 100% renewable energy since 2017, we have achieved our goal of reducing carbon emissions in the production process.
Sustainable products
The products of the Levantina Group, like Marble and Techlam, have the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) and GREENGUARD certifications, contributing to renowned environmental projects.
Reduction of the "Heat Island" effect
Our marbles and limestones are Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) certified under the ASTM E1980-11 standard, meaning they prevent localised temperature increases in urban environments.
Water resources
We certify the responsible management of water thanks to 100% recirculation, resulting in zero discharges, verified every 4 years by PROAGUAS, a company specialising in the full water cycle.
Biodiversity on land
The Levantina Group commits to biodiversity through quarry restoration and reforestation projects, promoting environmental education.
