Desde 2019, los empleados de Suzhou han ayudado a forjar un futuro sostenible al ofrecerse como voluntarios para plantar árboles en el área cercana a nuestra planta. Estos esfuerzos se han traducido en la plantación de cientos de nuevos árboles en el paisaje urbano.
El evento anual también alinea a Essex Furukawa, a través de su empresa matriz de Superior Essex, con cuatro de los ODS de la ONU.
Plantar árboles ayuda a alinearse con los Objetivos n.º 3, 11, 13 y 15 que apoyan la Salud y bienestar; Ciudades y comunidades sostenibles; Acción por el clima, así como Vida de Terrenos, respectivamente. El evento es parte del compromiso de Essex Furukawa con la Visión 2030, el medioambiente, así como el embellecimiento de la comunidad local.

Torreón reduce el impacto de los recursos
Según un informe de Naciones Unidas, la escasez de agua afectará a 2,700 millones de personas en 2025, lo que significa que una de cada 3 personas en el mundo se verá afectada por este problema. Es sustancialmente peor en Torreón y otras partes de México.
Nuestra planta en México ha podido demostrar una reducción en el uso de agua de unos 150 metros cúbicos al día (39 625 galones al día) desde la implementación de su iniciativa de aguas grises.
