THE MATERIALS THAT OUR PRODUCTS ARE MADE OF OFFER A GREAT VARIETY OF ENVIRONMENTAL ADVANTAGES GALVANISED STEEL Galvanised steel is a type of steel which undergoes a certain treatment, at the end of which it is coated with several layers of zinc which protect it, avoiding oxidation. The recycling of zinc helps reduce demand for new materials and as a result generates considerable energy savings, being a metal that constitutes a very valuable and sustainable resource.

PLASTIC Plastic recycling provides a sustainable source of raw material for the industry. Its reuse also significantly reduc- es environmental problems, as it is a non-biodegradable material. Recycling reduces energy consumption and CO2 emis- sions, thus mitigating pollution and climate change. There are several types of plastic, so to achieve optimal recycling it is essential to deposit them in clean points where the separation of the different types and their...
