Belief

All Portobello products are developed in a sustainable way, respecting biodiversity and the use of natural resources. Inside the production process, worth highlighting the main stages:
jazidas
Deposits

A Portobello cuida da regeneração ambiental das jazidas respeitando a vocação natural de cada área. Além de seguir critérios pré-estabelecidos para gestão de impactos sociais e de licenças das jazidas, com auditorias periódicas a fim de promover a preservação da biodiversidade e o controle da qualidade da água.

Water

Além de possuir fontes próprias de captação, a Portobello reutiliza 100% da água no processo produtivo através da aplicação de um circuito fechado, que evita o uso desenfreado de um recurso tão essencial e limitado no planeta. Além disso, a Portobello investe em projetos para uso eficiente da água no processo produtivo.

Energy

O calor do próprio processo de produção das cerâmicas é reutilizado como fonte de energia. A Portobello investe constantemente em energias limpas e em tecnologia para uso cada vez mais racional dos recursos naturais. Atualmente, cerca de 50% da energia elétrica consumida pelo Portobello Grupo é de origem eólica, uma fonte de energia renovável.

Waste

99,9% dos resíduos gerados pela Portobello são ressignificados ou reciclados, promovendo uma economia circular e responsável: Uso de resíduos gerados na Portobello na fabricação das próprias embalagens de papelão; uso de resíduos de terceiro para composição das embalagens de plástico e papelão; logística reversa de embalagens dos Centros de Distribuição para a fábrica da Portobello; uso de resíduos plásticos gerados na Portobello para composição das lixeiras utilizadas na indústria.
