Sustainability
CMPC´s work is deeply connected with its surroundings; the communities, the territories and the ecosystems that make them up. We understand value creation for our stakeholders, as the way to generate our own value and grow in a sustainable way over time. We work directly with natural resources such as soil, water and forests, knowing that our operations have both positive and negative impacts, therefore, we strive to continuously identify science based opportunities for improvement.
In this direction, we have committed to specific goals for sustainable development, of an environmental and social nature, with baseline in 2018 and 2019, respectively. These will guide all our actions to the year 2025 and 2030.
