We care for our flowers and the environment

Since 1970, World Earth Day has been celebrated on April 22nd, becoming a date that highlights awareness and actions in favor of our environment. However, at Capiro we honor our planet with daily actions, knowing that it is in our hands to contribute to the care of natural resources.

We understand the value of flowers and the role they play in nature, so our care is not only for them, but also for their ecosystem. Our commitment to sustainability impacts every process, consciously contributing as much as we can.

Environmental Responsibility

The cultivation of flowers makes us responsible for the protection of our planet, especially in Colombia, a country that represents one of the most important producers worldwide. At Capiro we address issues related to the misuse of resources and implement programs dedicated to generating alternative sources of energy.

Through the Five-Year Plan, we take care of water, one of the main resources used in floriculture. Every five years we present to the Colombian authorities and the Cornare Institution a program that promotes the efficient use of water and its saving. It involves each of our production centers, with framed activities that seek to reduce the consumption of this resource and avoid its waste.

We also have a program dedicated to the search for alternatives to reduce unnecessary energy consumption and promote the efficient use of this resource. Finally, we have integrated waste management programs that seek to reduce the consumption of materials through recycling and reuse.

The participation of our community

None of these actions would be possible without the help of our employees, who contribute daily to the care of the environment, growing flowers responsibly over time, making our processes even more special. Our community is aware of their important role in the care of our planet, being conscious of the work they do.

As a company, we reinforce and update information by sharing it with our employees in different spaces and meetings, teaching them new ways to care for and manage resources.

Our Certificates
