We invest in energy-saving lighting
Together with the Moravian-Silesian Region, AL INVEST Břidličná has committed to supporting environmental activities. We do so beyond the legal requirements because we care about sustainable business, and it is part of our company strategy.
In line with the energy concept, we started implementing the electricity savings program in 2020. The first project involved replacing lighting and its control system throughout the firm’s premises, with a total budget of 46 million Czech crowns. We started in November 2020, and today the energy-saving lighting in the production halls and outdoor areas is finished. This year, we will continue to work on energy savings projects,” says David Bečvář, Director for Strategy at MTX Group and CEO of AL INVEST Břidličná. “Last year, we also formulated a vision for the firm, which resulted in the ALFAGEN strategic program. It aims at developing the company in seven areas: circular economy, streamlining production, renewable energy sources, added-value products, development and employee motivation, digitization, and intensifying production in existing locations. I believe the program will have a positive impact not only on the quality and efficiency of production but mainly on reducing the energy consumption of production and reducing the carbon footprint of our products,” Bečvář adds.
