Granted by EFCL and ADEFAM, certifies that Aliberico work centres meet the requirements of hygiene, cleanliness and social distancing aimed at the control and prevention of Covid-19.

Madrid, June 30th. – Aliberico, the first Spanish and European family group that manufactures semi-processed aluminium products, has obtained the BSAFE certificate for its headquarters in Madrid and its various factories in Spain.

This seal, awarded by EFCL (Family Business Association of Castilla y León) and ADEFAM (Family Business Association of Madrid), certifies that Aliberico work centres comply with the requirements of hygiene, cleanliness and social distancing aimed at the control and prevention of Covid-19.

In this way, the central offices of Aliberico (Madrid) and the factories of Iberfoil (Sabiñánigo), RedBOND (Alicante), Aliberico Food Packaging (Madrid), Alucoat (Linares), Alucoil and Alintra Systems (Miranda), already have this certification that accredits them as « clean and safe » work spaces.

Since the beginning of March, when the Covid-19 health crisis broke out, Aliberico and all its factories have been adapting to the new situation with the implementation of strict protocols that have allowed them to maintain the supply to customers over time and protect employees.

Aliberico has made hygiene in its workplaces extreme by increasing cleaning and disinfection services both in open spaces and for shared use, using products recommended by the WHO. Likewise, it has established the minimum social distance in all work stations and made an effort to disseminate and train, supported by posters on the premises, to raise awareness of the new health and safety regulations.

Other measures implemented in the Group’s work centres have consisted of providing employees with all the necessary protective material, such as masks and hydro-alcoholic gel, and encouraging private transport, facilitating vehicle access to the factories.

KPMG is the entity in charge of auditing the procedures and activities implemented in the companies applying for the BSAFE seal.

Aliberico is a company that subscribes to the objective SDG 3 of the United Nations, in order to guarantee a healthy life and promote the well-being of citizens.

« Strengthening the protection and safety of our workers, suppliers and customers has been our main concern since the beginning of the pandemic. With this objective in mind, we have established strict health and safety protocols that have now been endorsed with BSAFE certification. However, their implementation in record time and in such an effective manner would not have been possible without the effort and commitment of our employees to continue providing the best service, » says Clemente González Soler, president of Aliberico.

ALIBERICO‘s environmental and total quality policy, based on « zero waste« , recycling, sustainability and the use of the circular economy of aluminium, is in force in all its factories, which serve a global market of over 80 countries, placing them at the forefront in the sectors in which they operate.

All the companies that make up ALIBERICO comply with strict regulations and quality standards based on « eco-efficiency », a set of practices carried out by the factories to reduce the environmental impact of production activities, in addition to recycling all surplus material and reintroducing it into the circular economy.

All the factories carry out their operations under the ISO 14.001 certification, which is the international standard for Environmental Management within the industry. At the same time, depending on the speciality of each factory, other specific certifications are added in order to guarantee the maximum quality of their products.

In a world that is increasingly aware of and involved with the environment, the demand for sustainable, reusable and recyclable products is booming. These are the characteristics of aluminium, the star product of the present and the future. 70% of the aluminium produced in the last 100 years is still in use or circulation, and the use of recycled aluminium saves 95% of energy.

ALIBERICO, committed to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) promotes health and well-being (SDG #3), invests in industry, innovation and infrastructure (SDG #9), promotes sustainable cities and communities (SDG #11), and commits to sustainable consumption and production patterns (SDG #12), in its action for the Climate (SDG #13).

On 11th June, ALIBERICO obtained the Safe and Clean Company certificate awarded by ADEFAM, the Association of Family Businesses in Madrid, which allows its employees to return to their offices with full security.

ALIBERICO, adhering to the COVID-19 Management Policy, has facilitated all kinds of measures: preventive, detective and response, with the aim of minimizing as much as possible the risk of COVID-19 contagion among its workers, customers and related third parties.

Extreme hygiene measures, respect for the minimum social distance in all work stations, signs throughout the office with indications of the safety protocol, and providing new measures to reach the offices, as well as hydroalcoholic gel, masks and all the necessary material and instructions to mitigate the risk of incidents, have contributed to obtaining this certificate.

ALIBERICO always committed to health and welfare (SDG 3), thanks its employees for their efforts and their commitment and involvement in this new normality to continue providing the best service.

INDUSTRY SHOULD BE THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND SPAIN’S ECONOMIC RECOVERY

Clemente González Soler, President of  Aliberico  has participated in the CEOE business summit, today dedicated to the industry and in which the most representative companies of the sector have collaborated to analyze the needs of Spain in order to get out of the COVID-19 crisis.

In his speech, Clemente González Soler highlighted the setback of the industry in Spain that during the last 50 years, has lost 20 points of the GDP in contrast to the rest of the western countries. « It is necessary to recover the weight of the industry on the GDP, because the industry offers a more stable work, of greater qualification, contributes much more export and R&D« .

« A country’s economy is what its businesses are« . The companies are responsible for the productivity and the administrations of the environment. With productivity and a good environment we will manage to be a more competitive Spain, » said the President of Aliberico.

In the closing of his speech, he stressed the need for in-house production of aluminium in Spain, which has gone from having five aluminium raw material plants to just one, with aluminium being a material increasingly consumed per capita and present in our daily lives: transport, facades, insulation, food and pharmacy, among others.

« We must make Spain one of the most attractive nations in the world to invest in, visit and live in. Without a strong industry it will be difficult to survive. Industry guarantees the economic development of the country, » concluded Clemente González Soler.
