We work hard to ensure harmony between innovation, sustainability and social responsibility

Commitment to the future

As a global reference in the industry, Zucchi goes beyond the extraction and sale of natural stones, combining technology and sustainability to preserve natural resources. Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the obtaining of environmental certificates and the safety of our operations.

We believe that growth is only possible with people. That’s why we create employment opportunities for the community, promoting economic well-being and quality of life. We also invest in annual training programs for teenagers, preparing them for successful careers and building a more sustainable future.

Water reuse

We reuse 100% of the water used in our operations, recycling more than 9 million liters per year. We collect rainwater for the production stages and follow a rigorous effluent treatment system. Our commitment is to ensure the sustainable and safe use of natural resources.

Waste

We adopt strict guidelines for recycling waste, reducing pollution and preserving natural resources. We invest in digitalization to reduce paper consumption and environmental impacts. Our focus is on minimizing waste and protecting biodiversity.

Solar panels

With over 4.400 solar panels, we generate 48% of the energy we consume internally, totaling 330 MWh per month. This is equivalent to 3,6 GWh per year, enough to power 1.765 homes. Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in our use of renewable sources.

Circular economy

Our precision technology reuses even the stone fragments, transforming gravel into crushed stone for various applications. One example is the wall of the Zucchi, made with bark, inspiring local projects. Natural coverings generate less CO₂, with 30 kg/m² less compared to other materials.

Pet

In partnership with the NGO Vira Lata Vira Luxo, we collect bottle caps for recycling, transforming them into useful products such as boxes and rebar. With the proceeds, we finance neutering, feeding and care programs for rescued animals. We contribute to animal welfare and environmental preservation.

Community

For over a decade, the Zucchi carries out social actions, bringing joy and hope to around 400 children on dates such as Christmas and Children's Day. We donate baskets and toys, reinforcing the importance of a welcoming and supportive future. More than products, our legacy lies in the stories and connections that transform lives.

Environmental reserve

A Zucchi maintains an environmental reserve to protect natural resources, promoting the preservation of biodiversity, water conservation, improvement of air quality and reduction of soil erosion. These actions contribute to climate balance and a healthier environment for employees and the community.
