Furthermore, the Company goals address the environment through "sustaining safe and secure operational practices" and "accepting responsibility for the protection of the environment in all aspects of operation".
Specific measures to protect the environment have been implemented including the monitoring of raw materials, liquids and solid waste and controls on emissions and noise.
