Brasil Pelo Meio Ambiente

ABOUT IT

Brasil TECPAR's Green IT Program aims to manage electronic materials and equipment so that they can be properly disposed of, recycled or reused. The company has therefore developed waste reception centers in partnership with a specialized supplier. These facilities receive all the material that comes back from construction sites, network expansion and maintenance activities, as well as individual and collective safety equipment. Thus, the company's unit carries out initial sorting, separating and forwarding the materials collected for reuse, recycling or recycling.  

 

After sorting, the waste is temporarily stored at Brasil TECPAR's operational bases, located at strategic logistics points, and the material is transported to the partner company's Sorting Centers, located in the states of São Paulo and Rio Grande do Sul, to be later sent for treatment. Grupo Toledo is Brasil TecPar's partner company for operating its reverse chain, collecting solid waste and disposing of it correctly. The company is ISO14001 certified and operates throughout the country.
