Positive impact on the territory, by the territory, and for the territory
Sustainability is fundamental to the way we carry out our work. With sustainable forest management as its cornerstone, our business delivers economic, social, and environmental improvements in the territory where it operates.
The provision of services for our clients is based on objectives, criteria, and indicators that integrate into our business model essential aspects such as climate change mitigation, biodiversity enhancement, soil protection against erosion, preservation of aquifers and watercourses, and the social use of forests.
AMETLAM is working on the development of a global strategy that encompasses the sustainability commitments adopted by the company.
Our forest management is essential for the water cycle: it regulates the flow of rivers and streams and contributes to the quantity and quality of groundwater. In addition, they act as natural purifiers, filtering water and reducing soil erosion, which prevents sedimentation that degrades water quality for consumption, wildlife, and surrounding areas.
Forests, their management, and their value chains are of crucial importance for sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment, and decent work for all, especially in rural areas.
Our goal is twofold: to ensure that communities live in dignity by taking advantage of their resources and to promote sustainable urbanization, with wood construction as the key to reducing the carbon footprint.
The products derived from our forest management are central to sustainable consumption and production.
Forests are key to the transition to low-carbon economies. On the one hand, sustainable forest management can maintain and increase carbon sinks and contribute to greenhouse gas emission reduction targets. On the other hand, sustainable forest management provides products that replace more fossil fuel intensive products.
Forests are one of the most important repositories of biodiversity, and their sustainable management is essential not only for conservation, but also to maintain ecosystem functioning and thus ensure the continued healthy provision of ecosystem services.
