Cales de Pachs receives recognition for its track record in the field of reducing emissions from Councilor Baltasar

Since 2005, the Generalitat de Catalunya has recognized with the Environment Award the relevant dedication of individuals, natural and legal, public and private, in favor of the protection and improvement of our environment, in the areas of climate change mitigation and waste reduction and recycling. The Environment Awards are part of the Generalitat’s set of actions to promote and stimulate the production and transfer of knowledge to society.

In 2008, Cales de Pachs received recognition for its track record in reducing emissions. The Generalitat has recognized the trajectory of this family company, with 40 years of existence, dedicated to the production of lime which, since 1971, has been incorporating the best available techniques into its production process, improving its energy efficiency and reducing emissions into the atmosphere.

The latest action has been the installation of a biomass micronization plant as a substitute for fossil fuel, which has made it possible to halve CO2 emissions and benefit the meat sector.
