Al\u00e9m disso, o rio era monitorizado com regularidade, e as an\u00e1lises \u00e0 \u00e1gua eram realizadas trimestralmente pelas autoridades locais.

to the Future<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sustainability has ceased to be just a trend and has become an essential responsibility across all industrial sectors and the world of inks is no exception. Marabu, internationally recognized for its innovation in the screen printing ink industry, has paved an exemplary path in environmental protection.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Past as a Foundation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As early as the 1920s, when the concept of \u201csustainability\u201d wasn\u2019t even part of the corporate vocabulary, Marabu already demonstrated an environmentally responsible approach. The factory, located next to the Saubach River, followed strict regulations for wastewater disposal. Equipment such as oil separators and systems for filtering sludge and chemical waste were used to minimize environmental impact. Additionally, the river was regularly monitored, and water analyses were conducted quarterly by local authorities. A clear example that environmental awareness was already a concern in industrial management at the time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PROJECT GREEN : The Current Strategy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In 2021, Marabu strengthened its environmental commitment by launching <strong>PROJECT GREEN<\/strong>, a sustainability strategy focused on reducing CO\u2082 emissions. This initiative includes several key actions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Use of more eco-friendly raw materials<\/strong>, carefully selected to minimize environmental impact from the outset.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Energy efficiency programs<\/strong> in production units, aiming to reduce both consumption and waste.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optimized manufacturing processes<\/strong>, designed to reduce the use of natural resources and maximize material reuse.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This long-term vision shows that Marabu sees sustainability as a continuous journey, where innovation and responsibility go hand in hand.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Partnership with Chemistry<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ruy de Lacerda is proud to have represented Marabu in Portugal for several decades. This long-standing collaboration is rooted in shared values, especially when it comes to environmental responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe truly have chemistry with Marabu, both in the product and in the way we see the world. Over the years, we at Ruy de Lacerda have also invested in sustainable practices, promoting solutions that respect the environment and add value to the industries we serve.\u201d &#8211; <em>An\u00edbal Dias, Ruy de Lacerda<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sustainable Inks : A New Generation of Products<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The commitment to sustainable inks does not compromise technical performance, on the contrary, Marabu continues to develop solutions that combine quality, durability, and lower environmental impact.
