Social and ecological responsibility are taken very seriously by the company, and therefore deep rooted to the company’s vision and values. The 5th of June is World Environment Day<\/strong>, but the company contributes positively to the environment in a daily basis, by putting in action measures that build a sustainable future, which has been the case since its foundation in 1966.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wood is the primary raw material for Luxury Furniture <\/a>and Hospitality Furniture (Contract<\/a>), as well as for Rink Hockey Sticks (Sport<\/a>), beside several other technical components. That said, there’s the upmost care in selecting wood from sustainably certified forests<\/strong> (FSC – Forest Stewardship Council), thus making that all important environmental contribution towards native forests preservation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As well as working with selected certified suppliers, AZEMAD owns three acres of native forest<\/strong> in the factory grounds, which amounts to over a thousand trees, 700 hundred of which planted as a company initiative, in order to create a woodland \u201claboratory\u201d, which includes oak, cherry, and walnut trees, and ultimately aims to encompass the connection with the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aware of its own environmental responsibility, always focusing on renewable energy, the company has a photovoltaic production system of 115kW for self-consumption, with a total of 420 installed solar panels<\/strong>, in order to significantly reduce its ecological footprint in energy consumption. AZEMAD also has a privately own Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) for wastewater treatment, reusing the water used and thus avoiding unnecessary waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
