SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY
At Lontana Group, we are committed to generating long-term profitability in a sustainable and responsible way
RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS MODEL
Committed to sustainability and achievement of the SDGs
Our sustainable growth strategy seeks to balance economic progress with social, environmental and governance responsibility.
Sustainability is aligned with the group’s corporate culture, business plan (purpose, mission, vision, values and value proposition) and responds to the economic, social, employment and environmental concerns raised by the business environment and our interest groups.
Sustainability Master Plan 2025
Our commitments to people and the environment are set out in the Sustainability Master Plan 2022–2025. The Plan, which forms an integral part of the Group’s own Strategy, is inspired by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations.
The Sustainability Master Plan contains 36 initiatives linked to 3 strategic lines of action – Good Governance, Management Strategies and Sustainable Business Strategies – which have a direct impact on SDGs 3, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13 and 16 and an indirect impact on the remaining SDGs.
Each initiative is monitored by means of key performance indicators (KPIs) that help us measure its success.
By adopting these initiatives, industrial companies can contribute to sustainable economic growth, minimizing our impact on the environment and enhancing our contribution to society.

ENVIRONMENT
Committed to preserving our planet
We care for our environment. This is why we have a series of guidelines for behaviour aimed at preventing or reducing whatever environmental impact we might have in our everyday work.
Sustainable use of resources
The economy is evolving towards a production and consumption model in which products remain in the value chain for as long as possible, increasing reuse and minimizing waste generation.
In line with this strategy, we work to ensure that our water and energy consumption is as efficient as possible – and that our waste generation is as low as possible.
Fighting climate change
We calculate our carbon footprint with the aim of working to reduce it to the lowest possible level.
A study was made of the GHG emissions deriving from our activity during 2022 in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol GHG PROTOCOL.
That protocol provides us with a key management tool in the company’s orientation towards the process of decarbonization, adaptation and mitigation of climate change.
- According to data from the report, in 2022, the carbon footprint of the organization as a whole was 1,754.66 tCO2e..
- Across most of the Group’s companies, Scope 2 emissions are zero thanks to our commitment to purchasing energy with guaranteed renewable origins.
Environmental management systems
Four of our centres are certified according to the ISO 14001:2015 standard, a fundamental basis for environmental management, and we are increasing the number of certified centres and companies in the Group every year.
The contribution of each and every person in the Lontana Group is essential to ensuring good environmental performance. That is why we carry out numerous environmental awareness campaigns.

People are the primary factor in our organisation. We foster personal and professional growth, equal opportunities and a healthy, safe work environment.gualdad de oportunidades y un ambiente de trabajo sano y seguro.
