Société des Fonderies de Plomb de Zellidja

Deeply committed to environmental protection, SFPZ endeavours to design and develop processes that combine advanced technologies and respect of the environment.

Environmental policy

SFPZ is a company that takes its responsibilities as a Moroccan and global citizen very seriously and foremost amongst these is a duty to protect the environment.

Products and technologies developed by SFPZ are designed so as to improve and enhance everyday life. In this regard, we have expressed the following environmental statement:

“Fully aware that humankind has a special responsibility to respect and preserve the delicate balance of nature, we at SFPZ acknowledge our obligation to maintain and nurture the ecology of this planet. Accordingly, we pledge ourselves to the prudent, sustainable use of the earth's resources and the protection of the natural environment while we strive to fulfill our corporate mission of contributing to enhanced prosperity for all”.

Social responsibility of the company

This policy is a significant part of our philosophy as a corporation and is in the very center of all our activities. From the plant to the local community and beyond, SFPZ recognizes its responsibilities as a global citizen company.

Just like our products which contribute to everyone’s prosperity, our environmental policy is built around the most appropriate ecological production standards.

We developed a range of tools and criteria to be used by our engineers to evaluate the possible impact of a given process on the environment. Such tools provide a database allowing linkage between materials, energy and transport, and their possible effects on global warming, depletion of natural resources, recycling possibilities, etc. By selecting varied combinations of materials and components, designers can improve the environmental performance of the smelter.

Clean plant concept

Once the design of a process is completed, production follows. SFPZ is committed on the long-term to manufacturing its products in a clean smelter, with a zero emission objective. This means our smelter will have to significantly reduce its water consumption, gas and chemicals emission, and waste production.

Energy saving

We devoted a great amount of effort and undertook a lot of research to improve the energy efficiency of our various production processes and our daily consumptions.
