Sustainable wood: The aim is to use Wood from well known sources. The program allows to track down the Wood within and area of 18.000 hectares. The Project went through four stages, which included follow up of the product from the supplier and the creation of a plan to find supporting logging companies to participate in this initiative. Another achievement was the technical support given by the company to producers in obtaining FSC certificate, which is mandatory to participate in our program
Plan of Carbon Management: unparalleled and innovative in the construction of Heavy Civil Construction, anticipating the standardization of National Climate Change Policy, it fixes aims and commitment of reduction of gas emissions and greenhouse effect in our activities.
Plan of Natural Resources: assesses possibility of reduction of dependency of natural resources , such as water , sand , rock and wood in our constructions, analysing availability in the scenarios of such resources in the different regions . Legislation comes into play in these products and their implications.
Camargo Corrêa Infra intends to get to know places where it will work, even before the construction begins. We understand which challenges we will face with the vulnerability and potential each area will determine as well as the day to day challenges of the communities in the construction phase.
We respect and implement recommendations of Programs of Environmental control, and / through social projects and volunteering incentive, we enter the regional communities in a harmonious way during all the Project, setting a relevant social legacy for the area through specific projects.
