Aligned with our commitment to the circular
economy, we carry out continuous monitoring of
indicators for the management of the materials
used in manufacturing our products. In 2022, 21.8
thousand tons of renewable material were used in our
operation. Our conversion rate, which represents the
amount of raw material purchased that is converted
into product, was 88%.

indicators in the Attachments on Page 120.

The waste generated in our operation comes mainly
from the cutting and stamping processes of parts that
generate scrap metal, as well as the disposal of packaging
of raw materials and other materials and inputs used in
production.
In line with the circular economy principles, our priority
in the destination of waste is the reuse and recycling of
the inputs used in the production process, especially in
the intercompany model, as in the case of scrap metal
generated in production processes, which returns as raw
material for the furnaces in our foundries.
The oil emulsion generated in machining processes, for
example, is recovered through a decantation process, in
which the chip is separated from the cutting oil, and both
are returned to the production process. Another example
is the powder paint recovery process in painting booths,
in which the exhaust system of the booth itself recovers
and reuses the raw material.
We also value the correct disposal of our wooden
packages and pallets, working on their recovery. In the
case of plastic jerry cans, IBC barrels and used gallons, we
return them to the original supplier or sell them for reuse.
Another technique we use to reduce the environmental
impact in the final destination of our waste is
co-processing, used primarily for waste with greater
heating power.
The organic waste resulting from gardening pruning and
sludge goes through a composting process and is later
used as fertilizer.
The suppliers responsible for waste management,
including its disposal and transportation, are licensed and
have the relevant documentation to perform the activity.
We monitor the documents throughout the process, up
to the issuance of the final waste disposal certificate by
the supplier.
In 2022, we generated a total of 96.2 tons of non-
hazardous waste. Of this total, 55% was sent for recycling
and 10% for recovery operations. The amount sent to
industrial landfills was 24%.
At the same time, we generated 8.9 tons of hazardous
waste, 95% of which was recovered through the adoption
of advanced treatment and reuse techniques, such as
recycling, reprocessing and co-processing.
All the data regarding waste generation is monitored by
the Environment Department through systems such as
SAP and Waste Transport Manifest.
