The pandemic surprised us in March last year and our attention has turned to the protection and safety of peo- ple, always intending to preserve jo- bs, collaborating with the communities where we operate, and implementing safe alternatives to serve our customers and partners. We learned countless important les- sons last year and, guided by our purpose of transforming environments and thrilling people, we made advan- ces in the digitalization of the busi- nesses, accelerating the connection with our customers. We will continue to overcome the challenges of the pandemic, aiming to grow continuou- sly, always together. In 2020, we also advanced in the company's governance by creating ma- nagement committees connected to the Board of Directors, with emphasis on the Sustainability Committee. The ob- jectives of a more professional manage- ment in the Sustainability scope include guiding the strategic vision, integrating the Units' actions, and promoting a mo- re effective and structured action to ge- nerate positive impacts on the environ- ment, society, and business. Transparency and consistency, aligned with ESG principles, should promo- te greater visibility and accelerate the actions for sustainability. We believe in this evolution and, in addition to the in- formation in this report, our commitment to transparency is permanent. I thank you all, employees and part- ners, for the commitment to building a safer and more humane environment this year, which was such a challenging year. And I invite each one to make, together, the future as sustainable as possible, as quickly as possible. Portobello Cesar Gomes Junior Chairman of the Board of Directors Sustainability Report 2020 04#5About Portobello 折 Portobello Shop Brasília, one of the 11 new stores opened in 2020 31 120 2220 270 Portobello About Portobello Transforming environments and thrilling people The largest floor covering chain store in Brazil, Portobello is the country's leading brand and a major global competitor in the sector. With multichannel activities, its operations are structured across four business units: Portobello, a distributor for home improvement cen- ters and projects as well as an exporter to five continents; Portobello Shop, its retail brand, with 136 stores all over Brazil; Portobello Ameri- ca, the precursor to Portobello Group's internationalization, headquar- tered in the United States; and Pointer, a democratic design brand with a solid foothold in Northeast Brazil and a natural exporter. Design and innovation are the key competences of Portobello Group steering the development of its services and products, which are ma- de in the Tijucas and Marechal Deodoro factories, in the Brazilian sta- tes of Santa Catarina and Alagoas, respectively, as well as in major production and innovation hubs around the world by its outsourced partners. With an integrated view of sustainability, considering the environmen- tal, social and economic pillars, Portobello has in place a process of conscious and regenerative manufacturing, and operates with a constantly-expanding emphasis on this aspect with the ambition to implement best practices and inspire the entire chain towards an in- creasingly sustainable future.

Portobello Sustainability Report 2020 10#11Sustainability for Portobello Portobello Sustainability Report 2020#12Sustainability for Portobello Portobello Sustainability for Portobello means being aware of our actions and the impact of our choices. It means understanding the responsibility that comes with being an integral part of our society and ecosystem. It means being committed to our entire production and distribution chain, helping to create a future in which we can all evolve together. Mining area in Campo Alegre, Santa Catarina Natural gas furnaces for firing ceramic tiles at the Tijucas manufacturing facility Sustainable slabs displayed at Portobello Shop in Florianópolis, Santa Catarina Ceramic tiles are brought to life in architectural plans Sustainability Report 2020 12 23#13Sustainability for Portobello Portobello's path to sustainability Looking after our employees, with respect and dignity Ensuring that the natural resources required for production are used rationally That the production process is not only socially and environmentally responsible, but also regenerative That the communities around us are built into the brand ecosystem That the waste we produce is repurposed Portobello Sustainability Report 2020 13#14Sustainability for Portobello Protecting the Environment Planet Earth is our home. And, for thousands of years, we have been using its natural resources to build our houses. Now we number over 7 billion. The only future worth ima- gining is one in which our management of architectural resources is smart, optimized and sustainable. Ceramic tiles replace non-renewable resources in a manner that is much more logical, technically and envi- ronmentally-wise. In the case of Portobello, they are ex- ceptionally sustainable. We worry about the way mineral deposits are explored and restored, about where the water we use comes from, about repurposing waste, about creating a positive im- pact for our communities. In our design process, architecture knows no bounds. In 2020, we distributed over 36 million square meters of sustainably-sourced tile coverings in Brazil and around the globe. On the following pages, we will show how we are working on creating the future we want. Portobello A mineral deposit that was environmentally restored and converted into a fish farm in Sustainability Report 2020 14#15regenerative extraction Earth The raw material used to make ceramics is earth itself, removed from shallow layers and mostly in areas close to our plants Portobello Mining area in Campo Alegre (Santa Catarina)#16Sustainability for Portobello regenerative extraction 90,000 m² 200 native seedlings 100% suppliers of restored areas planted at Cedro deposit, in São João (Sergipe) subjected to environmental assessment Earth Portobello Mining activities deserve special atten- tion to minimize their potential impact on biodiversity. Our raw materials come from our own sources and from third parties. Portobello-owned deposits account for 15% of extraction activities. We have laid down rules for restoring these deposits after they have been explored, respec- ting the natural vocation of these areas. In 2020, we promoted the environmental restoration of 90,000 square meters or 9 hectares in six different areas explored by Portobello Mining. For example, at the Cedro mineral depo- sit, located in São João, in the Northeast state of Sergipe, we planted 200 native tree seedlings in 2020. To offset a hot semi-arid climate that sees no rain for the better part of the year, we have im- plemented a drip irrigation system that slowly and directly provides water to the plant roots. This way we can be sure that the new seedlings will receive enough water to grow and that no water will be lost through evaporation. Moreover, the soil surrounding a seedling is always kept wet, which means this system uses the le- ast amount of water possible. We also manage the mined materials su- pplied by third parties. In these cases, we adopt pre-established criteria for managing social impacts and mining permits, conduc- ting regular audits intended to conserve biodi- versity, control water quality and reduce CO2 emissions. In 2020, we evaluated all of our 16 suppliers in terms of environmental impact. None of them were shown to be performing activities that cause significant effect. Other than extracting, we also remain vigi- lant as to how materials are disposed of. Ceramics are made almost entirely of earth. Therefore, if properly disposed of, they will create no impact for the environment. The right way to dispose of them is by using containers provided by qualified companies, who will then send them for recycling. Cera- mics are then ground and become a mate- rial to be used in construction. Disposal ins- tructions are detailed in the Portobello Shop Customer Manual. It is our company's goal to increasingly share these best practices. Sustainability Report 2020 16#17100% water reuse Water Moving water and the mechanical force of waterwheels turn clay into a very fine powder Portobello Water in the Campo Alegre deposit, explored by Portobello Mining#18Sustainability for Portobello 100% Volume of water captured for ceramic production (I/m²) Portobello Pointer 2018 6,31 2019 water reuse 2020 13,32 14,44 4,55 4,39 Water Total volume of recycled/reused industrial water (m³) Portobello 510.473 515.130 341.345 Portobello Water is an essential, but limited resource in our planet. Therefore, we have optimi- zed its use at both of our manufacturing facilities and our retail operations. At Tijucas, production employees a clo- sed-loop water system. This means all the water used in manufacturing is treated and reintroduced into the process. Water is lost only from evaporation, which is sent out through smokestacks as white vapor. We keep a close watch on the consump- tion of industrial water, through a drinking water consumption indicator. We won the 2020 Citizen Business Award in the envi- ronmental conservation category with a case study titled Efficient use of water in its operations, in November 2020. For 2021, we will be introducing Project Water, through which our employees will be able to participate more actively in the way we manage and use industrial water. Our technology evolution takes place also as equipment is systematically replaced. We have invested in equipment that uses the least amount of water possible, such as the new dry grinding unit, implemented into the product processing stage. Our goal for 2021 is to capture 13.21 liters of water per square meter of ceramics produced. The water we collect comes from our own sources, including groundwater and sur- face water, near our manufacturing facili- ties. We are careful about conserving the environment surrounding our waters. Fur- thermore, we are part of the Tijucas River Drainage Basin Committee, supporting ac- tions and decisions made. In 2020, there was an increase in groundwater use and a decrease in surface water use due to a drought that affected Santa Catarina. At the Marechal Deodoro manufacturing facility, we employ a dry manufacturing process that requires no water for grinding and uses it only for glazing and polishing. Compared to the wet process used in the Santa Catarina manufacturing facility, in 2020, dry manufacturing used 4.39 liters to make one square meter of ceramics whe- reas the former used 14.79 liters. Also in Alagoas, the water we use origina- tes from our own sources, thought they are all groundwater sources. After its industrial and sanitary uses, the water is treated and disposed of in compliance with environ- mental management standards. At the Portobello Shop chain, we encou- rage a conscious approach to water use. For the next few years, we are working on a standardized way to manage this resource. Our recommendations include using dual flush toilet tanks, which con- serve water, and dry cleaning windows. Moreover, rainwater is harvested in those stores where possible. Sustainability Report 2020 18#19clean energy Firet The shape of ceramics involves the technology of the presses and the heat energy along the line towards the furnaces Portobello Dryer from Officina Portobello#20Sustainability for Portobello Portobello D clean energy Energy consumption (GJ/m²) Portobello Pointer 2018 0,13 0,06 2019 2020 0,14 0,14 0,06 Fire Managing energy consumption is fundamen- tal for our company's sustainability, since the ceramics industry works with thermal pro- cesses. At both manufacturing facilities, he- at process efficiency is controlled on a daily basis, and we reuse the heat from furnaces and atomizers. The two manufacturing facilities also use natural gas as their main source of energy. This is the energy we utilize for thermal pro- cesses, that is, in our furnaces, dryers and atomizers. Despite not being a renewable source of energy, natural gas is considered clean, as it produces no soot or solid waste of any kind. It also has great heating value, which is of special interest to the ceramics industry due to specific consumption. This means that the energy loss rate of natural gas is close to zero. - 0,06 With natural gas, we have more heat and at the same time the least amount of energy possible. We use electric power as well: to light our facto- ries, for some of the production line equipment and at our administrative facilities. In this case, the electric power comes from the Brazilian energy grid, generated mainly in hydroelectric power plants and wind farms, that is, renewa- ble sources of energy. In our manufacturing and administrative facilities, we recently replaced incandescent and fluorescent light bulbs with LEDs. The Marechal Deodoro manufacturing facility also has a farm of solar panels measuring 80 square meters that produces 22 kWh and po- wers the facility's main grid. Portobello Shop stores have a standard lighting plan designed to ensure a balance between the best lighting to enhance customer experience and have the least energy consumption. A li- near system of diffuse lights creates an inviting atmosphere at the stores while ensures that enough power is saved to light the entire area. The light opening angle for spotlights used on Portobello products on display, which consume more energy, is calculated so as to reduce the need for additional points. At the stores opened in 2018 onward, which number more than 70, the entire lighting sys- tem uses LEDs, which consume approximately 20% less power compared to standard light bul- bs. LEDs also last much longer: 50,000 hours, enough to light one of our stores for approxima- tely 17 years. Comparatively, standard light bul- bs are good for just 6,000 hours. By doing so, Portobello Shop is avoiding the disposal of this type of waste.

Portobello Optimized Consumption The main source of heat used in the in- dustry is natural gas-also the cleanest and more environmentally-friendly of fuels. Every day we measure how much gas we use in our production process. Materials are handled internally around our plants primarily using natural gas- -powered vehicles, which account for approximately 90% of our fleet. We take full inventory of greenhouse ga- ses in our manufacturing units and use the data to inform our main actions and investments intended to reduce the use and generation of such gases. Direct greenhouse gas emissions as assessed by our controls have in- creased slightly each year at both Tijucas and Marechal Deodoro manu- facturing facilities. This is due to the increased quality of our product por- tfolio, with the production of tiles fea- turing larger formats and more ornate polished finishes. These actions are consistent with the sustainability of our business and were coordinated and planned for. 2018 2019 2020 Direct greenhouse gas emissions (kgCO₂eq/m²) Portobello Pointer 6,03 2,83 6,33 2,68 6,51 2,75 Sustainability Report 2020 21 21#2299,9% Ө waste repurposing Zero Waste The rate of recycling, reuse and recovery of the waste produced in Portobello's manufacturing process exceeds 99%. Each year we draw closer to zero waste Portobello Most of the waste produced in 2020, namely 96.06%, was reused into the ceramic mixture#23Sustainability for Portobello 99,9% Ө 2018 2019 waste repurposing 2020 Recycled materials used into the ceramic mixture (%) Portobello 15 - 20 22 - 24 Pointer 3 5 10 Zero Waste At the Tijucas manufacturing facility, 99.9% of all waste produced is either repurposed or recycled, thus promoting a circular and responsible economy. We manage all the waste we produce at our industrial and administrative facilities, including medical waste and waste from our cafeterias. Most part of this waste is reintroduced ba- ck into the production process as an ingre- dient of the ceramic mixture. This is what we call internal recycling. Materials that cannot be used in the mixture, such as metals, cardboard, oil, belts, electronic wa- ste, among others, are sent to be recycled externally. Just 0.07% of the waste goes unrecycled and is sent to landfills. We are moving closer to zero waste, with the goal of bringing this percentage down to abso- lute zero. All paper used in packaging is recycla- ble and all pallets are made from refo- rested wood. A reverse logistics initiative was implemented in our distribution cen- ters to recover pallets and metal sup- ports that can be reused. In 2020, 3,088 pallets and 4,254 supports ended up being recovered. At the Marechal Deodoro manufacturing facility, we started a project in 2020 for proper disposal of ceramic shards. We have intensified the reintroduction of this type of waste into the ceramic mixture. Ho- wever, it is also sent for external recycling. More specifically, it is sent to a business partner that uses our shards as a material for making cement.

Sustainability Report 2020 27#28Portobello's Strategies Portobello Portobello Portobello Portobello Tijucas is a pioneer among the group's business units. It sets itself apart due to the combination of the manufac- turing facility and a focus on innovation and due to its commercially-efficient mul- tichannel distribution. Its commercial performance stands out in the traditional sector market on account of its distinguished portfolio, especially the large formats and slabs, constant new re- leases and operational excellence, parti- cularly its logistics and services areas. The multi-brand channel of Portobello Tijucas focuses on home improvement centers, where it has been solidifying its position as the chief tiles brand with a presence in 700 stores across Brazil. In 2020, these were host to PoS update ac- tions in 2020 to usher in a new concept of display. This new concept is made of self-sup- porting structures that allow for their reu- se when products are replaced-a more sustainable and practical solution imple- mented in more than 90 points of sale across the country and adopted towards the exporting channel as well. The projects and major works have a technical vocation, which demands a portfolio with specific characteristics to be used in different niche markets, spe- cialized services and a scale compati- ble with commercial works and the real estate market. With a dedicated custo- mer service team, Portobello has tallied more than 6,000 major works with its products. Portobello is a long-term exporter to more than 60 countries. The brand is renowned among customers for its design and inno- vation which have elevated Portobello to become a major global competitor in the tiles industry. Located in the Portobello Tijucas manu- facturing facility are several plants, mostly intended for the production of large for- mats. It was also there at Tijucas that the very first Slabs plant in Brazil was establi- shed, with capacity to produce formats of up to 1.80 x 3.60 meters. Slabs plant at the Tijucas manufacturing facility Sustainability Report 2020 28#29Portobello's Strategies Portobello Slabs represent a new paradigm in the market and have expanded the boun- daries of how porcelain is used in ar- chitecture as well as in design. The Slabs plant drives our innovation stra- tegy, and the consequences are felt across all departments of the company with logistical and, mainly, commercial challenges. The digital transformation of traditional dis- tribution channels picked up the pace in 2020, in terms of both structural systems and data intelligence, which propels advan- cements in management and services, and with respect to the customers' brand expe- rience through digital tools for specification and the replacement of catalogs with inte- ractive displays at the points of sale.

Officina Portobello, the group's porcelain brand, is one of the distinguishing elements of this experience, with an original portfolio of porcelain countertops and furniture. Portobello Shop stores set the standard in architecture and display for architec- ture professionals and their customers to have a design experience with the brand. During 2020, these stores hosted an exhi- bit to show off the Slabs System, bringing this experience to a new level. Stores ha- ve sustainability initiatives of their own, such as waste sorting, rainwater harves- ting and solar panels. Learn about +Architecture We are working on standardizing this re- source management across the entire chain in the near future. Architecture professionals play a central role in the specification process and in Portobello Shop's customer experience. They are part of a virtuous circle in the relationship with the brand. For creative exchanges and identification of market needs, dialogue is held constantly in a structured fashion through +Architecture program, which also recognizes the value of these professionals and increases the visibility of those who excel in their rela- tionship with the brand. Creative Collective, a project for creating a line of Portobello products with a group of renowned architects and held every year at architecturally-relevant venues, expresses how important this process is to the brand. Sustainability Report 2020 30#31Portobello's Strategies The Jundiaí distribution center started operations in 2020 Portobello The accelerated digital transformation of our times is also reflected in the spe- cification and shopping experience at Portobello Shop. Brand presence on social media focuses on inspirational, technical and educational content in addition to tools for project execution. Archtrends, a platform showing refe- rences and trends, leads the way for architecture professionals. At the stores, digital presence not only streamlines quotation and purchase processes, but it also has a surprising effect with its design and specification tools. The wide reach of the retail chain, the diversified portfolio to create a complete solution and the support provided to end customers are the reasons why logistics is one of the brand's most important du- ties and competences. Portobello Shop has a domestic network of distribution centers to service all cus- tomers directly and believes that their ex- perience with the brand begins at inspira- tion and goes all the way through to when the product is delivered. At the forefront of the group's strategy, Portobello Shop pilots an integrated re- tail model that allows the brand to have control over the entire chain, from raw materials to sales to end consumers, and provides the foundations for envisioning the evolution from a manufacturing facility with a store chain into a store chain with a manufacturing facility.

The concept of Supercera- mics, an exclusivity of Pointer's since 2018, is expressed in the combination of large ceramic formats and constant new releases in line with the latest interior design trends. Superceramics created a new class of pro- ducts that offer greater added value compared to standard ceramics and that are more affor- dable in contrast to porcelain. On top of large formats, Superceramics inno- vated by introducing rectified tiles, allowing for smaller grout lines, and polished surfaces, cha- racteristics that are typical of porcelain tiles.

Portobello POSSIBILID LIMITADAS PARA REVE MOBILIAR The future of porcelain tiling. Portobello Slabs System. Covering, furnishing and decorating with more innovation and sustainability Slabs represent a technological revolution in the ceramics industry, predicated on a new production process that uses a different pressing method. It all began in the early 2000s when continuous pressing was developed in Italy and evolved to become a new paradigm for tiles. The very large formats and a flexibility of widths have expanded the use of ceramic surfaces into nobler areas of ar- chitecture, in addition to allowing new uses in de- sign and furniture. The comparison against slabs made of natural stone accentuated the technical advantages and the more sustainable traits of the manufacturing process. Portobello launched the Slabs Project in 2019 with the commissioning of stage one at its manufactu- ring facility. Later, in March 2020, Portobello relea- sed its Slabs during trade show Revestir, where it introduced a portfolio that was in line with the ma- jor global players in the industry.

Following the industrial investments, after another stage was completed and production started in November 2020, it was now time for commercial challenges to take center stage of the project. New forms of displaying products at Portobello Shop stores, proactive creation of a new culture for using ceramic surfaces, qualified staff and partners, original product portfolio and development of new furniture distribution channels are all part of the consolidation of the Portobello Slabs Project.

Every year the program benefits around 200 chil- dren and teenagers aged 6 to 13, of which 30% are children of Portobello employees and 70% are from the lo- cal community. Of all participants, 90% are students at local public schools. The goal of the program is not only to encourage physical activity and de- velop motor skills, it is meant also to foster qualities that come from doing sports, such as responsibility, coope- ration and respect. The way this happens is by tea- ching social and educational sub- jects such as health, education, entrepreneurship and sustainability. The program also serves to prepare teenagers for the professional world, guiding them into Portobello's Young Trainee program. - Crescer is held in partnership with ADEC Sports Association of Cera- mics Companies in Tijucas and wi- th SESI Industrial Social Work.
