Circular Economy
Moving towards a circular economy from the driest place on Earth
Given the current scarcity and high value of commodities, we believe in the need to move towards a circular economy that recycles materials, remanufactures equipment and help mitigate the effects of climate change. We are proud to be a design and manufacturing company that reuses and recycles scrap metal to produce new highly engineered energy efficient products, contributing to maximum utilization of resources and reducing the effects of global warming.
Circular Economy Attribute (CE)
Our Circular Economy business model, pioneer at a global and local level, complies with the strictest attributes of circularity in order to generate sustainable economic growth, create quality jobs and combat climate change.
Circularity (EC): Our products are manufactured with 100% recycled materials from the mining industry; designed incorporating the principles of circularity, using the least amount of materials and energy for their manufacture; increasing and multiplying their life cycles through recycling, reduction, repair, rejection and remanufacturing. Our Neptuno Analytics app shows the complete and real-time traceability of each of our products (manufactured and remanufactured), displaying percentages of material recycling, component reuse, CO2 savings and operating cycles.

Regional Development: Our company is owned and capitalized 100% Tarapaqueña, with all its facilities and operations located at Avda. Circunvalación 64B, Iquique, Tarapacá Region, Chile. All of our workers and collaborators live and work in the Tarapacá region. Our supplier policy prioritizes the local purchase of supplies and products in order to collaborate with regional development.
Emissions and Waste Reduction: We are the first mining supplier company in Chile to have a 100% renewable electricity supply contract. Our contract with Colbún S.A. considers 3,900 MWh per year, allowing us to reduce more than 1,945 tons of CO2 annually, which is equivalent to planting 2,990 trees per year or removing 374 cars annually. We have the largest and most modern metal foundry in northern Chile, with a recycling capacity of more than 300 tons of metals per month, allowing us to manufacture products with 100% recycled materials.
