Learn how our waste treatment system works and our efforts to protect our Planet

At Industria Chiquibul we are committed to the Planet and its conservation, focusing multiple efforts to preserve and protect our natural resources of water and life.  

Do you know how our waste treatment system work?

Our wastewater treatment system is strategically located more than 1.5 km from the San Román River or any other natural watercourse. We are leaders in innovation, having a treatment system designed with German technology and processing 120,000 cubic meters of water, complying with the highest international standards. With a rigorous monitoring program and continuous analysis by independent and accredited laboratories, we achieve a reduction of more than 95% in chemical and biological oxygen demand, ensuring our planet protection. 

We are reducing our carbon footprint by capturing methane with two biodigesters of 16,000 cubic meters each, reducing our greenhouse gases impact. With the installation of four bio generators, we use the captured methane to generate up to 4 or 5 megawatts of renewable energy, diversifying the country’s energy sources.

In our plantation, we follow the best agricultural practices and use agrochemicals quantities that do not pose a risk to human health or the environment. Chemical products used in our operations are approved and regulated by the competent authorities. 

As a company, we deeply value our relationship with local communities. We hold regular talks with community leaders to address any concerns and to ensure that our operations benefit our areas of influence. We have implemented community development programs that include improvements in infrastructure, education, and health.

At Industria Chiquibul we reaffirm our dedication to operate responsibly and our commitment to become a global leader sustainability, protecting our planet and promoting the prosperity and well-being of our people.
