Porcelanosa

Since the beginning of its business, Porcelanosa has taken on a prominent role in environmental awareness. The Porcelanosa Group was one of the first conglomerates in the tile industry that obtained the ISO 14001 certification for environmentally friendly manufacturing processes. This certification proves the long-standing tradition of Porcelanosa to conserve natural resources.

Porcelanosa has also developed EcoProject, which supports this cause through products that are not only advanced, but also environmentally friendly. In the creation of these products, we are able to conserve valuable resources and minimize waste. The resources of energy, air and water are some of the focal points of EcoProject, through which we maintain the goal of continual innovation.

Throughout our development, we have dedicated ourselves to investing in warehouses and facilities. This investment allows us to generate products in the most sustainable way possible. One-third of the electricity consumed by the company comes from its own cogeneration systems, making our company more energy-efficient.

In order to avoid atmospheric pollution, we use dust-extraction systems that are fitted with air filters. Paired with the use of 100-percent water vapor, this has enabled us to reduce the chance of air contamination. Water conservation is also an important concern, as 6.4 tons of waste reaches the sea every year. Because of this, Porcelanosa's manufacturing plants contain technologies that undergo water purification. Our systems also use 100-percent recycled water in our grinding processes, in order to reduce water consumption.
