Withdrawal of fossil diesel from the Amazon

We are the only company that operates with B100 biodiesel to replace fossil diesel on a commercial scale in the Isolated Systems. Currently, we remove more than 106 million kilograms of fossil diesel annually, avoiding the emission of 250,000 tons of carbon into the atmosphere.

Our fertigation process

Our fertirrigation process is 100% natural. After the oil is extracted, all residues from the industrial process are treated and used for soil fertilization in the company's areas.
