"At Geocycle Mexico we have an ongoing commitment to sustainable development, not only with our co-processing solution for industrial waste management, but also in our daily operations. We are aligned to a global vision, with strict levels to reduce and control our carbon footprint, and proud to say that as a company we are contributing to a better future," said Miguel Ladron de Guevara, Geocycle Mexico director.

The certificate of "Environmental Excellence" is the maximum recognition granted by PROFEPA to companies that demonstrate continuous improvement in their ecological performance, a strong commitment to environmental preservation and unwavering social responsibility with their surroundings.
