Sustainability at VALRAS
Our commitment to a sustainable future
At VALRAS, sustainability is integrated into every stage of our activity. We assume the role of a responsible manufacturer in the glass processing and insulating glass manufacturing industry, offering solutions that directly contribute to reducing the impact on the environment. Innovation, efficiency and care for natural resources underpin all our decisions.
Investments in efficient technologies
Over time, we have made continuous investments in expanding production capacities and modernizing equipment. The new machines optimize energy consumption, reduce material losses and improve the efficiency of the entire technological flow. This approach allows us to deliver high quality products with minimal environmental impact.
Green energy from own sources
We are partly powered by renewable energy, produced by our own photovoltaic panel system. Through this investment, we reduce CO₂ emissions and dependence on traditional energy sources, contributing to the protection of the environment and the long-term sustainability of our operations.
Recycling of glass and cardboard
VALRAS recycles all glass waste resulting from the production process. The remains are collected and sent to specialized centers to be transformed into reusable raw material. Also, all cardboard packaging is sorted and recycled according to the legislation in force. We thus ensure that resources are used efficiently and responsibly.
Water filtration and reuse
The water used in technological processes is filtered through advanced treatment systems, to be cleaned and reused. Through this solution, we significantly reduce water consumption and the impact on the public network, demonstrating our commitment to the conservation of natural resources.
Solutions for sustainable construction
Our products—especially high-performance insulating glass—contribute to the energy efficiency of buildings and the reduction of resource consumption. Our partners choose VALRAS to build sustainable, efficient and environmentally friendly buildings.
Involvement in research and regulation
We actively participate in the development of technical standards in the field of architectural glass, collaborating with national and European bodies to harmonize regulations and support innovation. Through research and institutional involvement, we contribute to the responsible evolution of the entire industry.
Social and environmental responsibility
We believe that a modern company has the duty to create not only economic, but also social and ecological value. We get involved in local initiatives, support technical education and promote the culture of sustainability both within the organization and in the community of which we are a part.
