Environmental care has been a constant concern for our company, for example, we were the first corrugated board producers that used inks without heavy metals since 1992 up to this date.
On the other hand, since 1996 we have operating a modern waste water treatment plant that during year 2004 was complemented with a second treatment phase, an effort that cost approximately US$ 500.000
iIt is an automatic operating Beckart plant of American manufacture and technology. The treatment is Chemical and Physical in which water is obtained (see image of the canal that crosses our gardens) and solid products that are disposed off in authorized waste deposits..
Cartones San Fernando is one the 53 companies in Chile with a treatment plant that is approved and controlled by the Sanitary Service Supervisor agency, and in addition every month there are analysis done (by an independent laboratory) of the treated water quality that is poured to the exterior and every three month the supervisor is informed about the results of the analysis.
