Wood supply to Biotek facilities is controlled per the requirements of the FSC® Chain of Custody [1] and PEFC™ [2] while promoting sustainable forest management practices among its suppliers.
Preserving biodiversity, especially in areas of significant ecological value, is a priority for the Altri Group.
In this regard, Altri has been maintaining and enhancing its activities to:
- Promote the restoration and conservation of biodiversity;
- Practice a management model based on principles of added value;
- Directly involve the community and local authorities;
- Raise awareness among all its stakeholders, including employees, so that they can adhere to the principles of biodiversity protection;
- Promote campaigns to disseminate and raise awareness of biodiversity values;
- Maintain a supply policy that eliminates or avoids purchasing wood from sources that violate FSC® and PEFC™ rules, particularly concerning the illegal logging of timber without regard to the value of biodiversity or coming from regions where civil rights are violated.
