ENVIRONMENT

We lead the change and embrace new and original ideas. We take the steps necessary for environmental sustainability by targeting zero waste, internalizing excellence and efficiency in our operations with our approach of carbon-neutral applications, sustainable water management and raw material supply.

Our relationship with the environment is determined by our mission of “contributing to a happier world.” We prioritize in increasing energy and water efficiency and reducing emissions and waste for achieving environmental sustainability in our companies.

Our target is to keep our carbon emissions at the same level as in 2014 as We continue to grow within the scope of our climate change strategy, which is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement.  We work with suppliers and farmers in our value chain within the framework of natural resource management to make our operations more efficient. Thanks to these efforts, We reduce raw material waste and water consumption.
