Artesanía Cerdá celebrates obtaining the Zero Waste certificate, an achievement that reflects its commitment to sustainability. This recognition guarantees that 90% of the waste generated is recycled, supporting the circular economy and reducing the environmental impact in all its processes.
The Zero Waste certification recognises companies that manage to reuse or recycle at least 90% of the waste they generate, avoiding sending it to landfill. For Artesanía Cerdá, this achievement not only validates its efforts in sustainability, but also reinforces its commitment to the environment and society. The implementation of more efficient and sustainable processes has been key to obtaining this recognition.
Being a Zero Waste company implies a real and measurable commitment to environmental sustainability, a trend that is becoming increasingly relevant for both organisations and consumers. This concept is based on efficient waste management, where the main objective is that at least 90% of the waste generated does not end up in landfills, but is reused, recycled or recovered in some way.
For Artesanía Cerdá, obtaining this certificate has meant thoroughly analysing each of its internal processes, from the selection of materials to the management of waste in its facilities. For example, the company has implemented advanced waste sorting systems, ensuring that each type of material is sent to the appropriate destination for reuse or recycling. In addition, policies are in place to reduce unnecessary resource consumption and minimise waste generation from the beginning of the production chain.

The reduction of waste going to landfill and the reduction of carbon emissions are direct consequences of this certification. By recovering materials for new uses, Artesanía Cerdá actively contributes to a cleaner and healthier environment. These actions are essential in a global context where natural resources are being exploited at an unsustainable rate.
Artesanía Cerdá's Zero Waste approach is aligned with the principles of the circular economy. This means transforming waste into resources, encouraging the creation of more sustainable and durable products. Furthermore, the company works hand in hand with strategic partners who share this vision, maximising the positive impact throughout the value chain.
Reduction of waste to landfill
One of the most notable benefits of this certification is the drastic reduction of waste that ends up in landfills. Landfills are one of the main sources of soil and water pollution, and generate methane emissions, a greenhouse gas 25 times more potent than CO₂. Artesanía Cerdá, by managing and recovering more than 90% of its waste, contributes to the preservation of ecosystems and the mitigation of climate change.
Reduction of carbon emissions
The recycling and reuse of materials not only reduces the need to extract new raw materials, but also saves energy in production processes, resulting in lower greenhouse gas emissions, an essential benefit in the global fight against global warming.
Promoting biodiversity
Less waste in the environment means less threat to natural habitats and biodiversity. By avoiding the accumulation of waste in landfills and oceans, Artesanía Cerdá helps preserve local flora and fauna, contributing to the balance of ecosystems.
Promoting sustainable practices in the value chain.
Artesanía Cerdá's commitment to Zero Waste also drives positive changes in its supply chain. By working with suppliers and partners aligned with sustainable values, the company encourages responsible practices at all stages of production. This creates a multiplier effect, where every actor involved contributes to minimising environmental impact.
The Zero Waste certification is not only a recognition, but a reaffirmation of Artesanía Cerdá's commitment to a greener future. Through innovation and the circular economy, the company demonstrates that it is possible to combine business success and environmental sustainability.
The Zero Waste certificate reinforces Artesanía Cerdá's commitment to a sustainable and environmentally friendly business model. Its efforts not only benefit the environment in the present, but also contribute to laying the foundations for a cleaner and healthier future for generations to come. Because the best companies in the world are the best companies for the world.
