Sustainability: a continuous path, not a destination.
Sustainability is a key pillar of Metlac's business strategy. Since 2015, our transformation journey has led the company to integrate ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) principles into its daily operations.
We believe that economic growth should go hand in hand with environmental protection and community welfare. Therefore, we develop products with reduced ecological impact and invest in innovation to improve the efficiency of our production processes.
