At Vitex we cultivate environmental responsibility as an integral part of our corporate philosophy, recognizing the importance of protecting the environment, as well as the challenges posed by climate change, which is a global issue with implications that affect the company’s operations and its stakeholders, and more generally the whole range of economic activities and life on the planet.
We strive for the prudent and rational management of environmental issues associated with our activities and take the necessary measures in accordance with the provisions of the relevant legislation, constantly improving our performance.
At the same time, we ensure that all employees are continuously informed on issues that concern the protection of the environment, consolidating the concept of environmental protection.
The cornerstone of our sustainable development strategy is our commitment to the collective European target of successfully and sustainably transitioning to a climate-neutral economy by 2050.
To achieve this, we focus on identifying and evaluating the severity of the risks, as well as the opportunities created by climate change, aiming to take the necessary actions to mitigate the negative effects and enhance the positive outcomes.
For both short-term and long-term strategic planning to address climate change, we thoroughly examine these risks and the related financial implications.
Key pillars of this strategy include:
- Energy Efficiency
- Greenhouse Gas Emissions
- Renewable Energy Sources
- Low Environmental Impact Products
Vitex invests in renewable energy sources and employs digital industrial methods in its production stages to conserve energy, reduce fossil fuel dependency, and decrease emissions of gaseous pollutants.
We respect the natural environment and demonstrate this by implementing circular economy principles. Our goal is to reduce the volume of waste generated from our production processes through treatment, reuse, recycling, and material recovery whenever possible.
We are committed to the efficient use of water in our facilities and focus on developing actions to increase its reuse.
We are steering our product portfolio towards achieving peak performance while leaving the smallest possible environmental footprint and minimizing environmental impact.
