THE CHALLENGE: A company that is completely dependent on a healthy environment for its continued success recognizes the need to conduct its business in a sustainable way. Striking the right balance between market demands and safeguarding the environment for future generations. As one of the largest forestry companies of Latin America, Celco owns some 800,000 hectares of forest plantations. From wood pulp to the best knot-free wood, the company always focuses on high added-value products.

THE APPROACH: ARCADIS' professionals fully supported Celco in ensuring compliance with Chilean legislation while reducing the adverse impacts of its operations on the environment. ARCADIS conducted environmental analysis and studies to get approval from authorities for developing pipelines to dispose of treated wastewater into the sea. An environmental impact assessment of all the design elements was completed, resulting in the implementation of measures to comply with environmental regulations.

THE RESULT: Conducting business in a sustainable way. Safeguarding the forests and the environment for the community. Now and in the future.
