Commitment and sustainability
At Puertas Bamar we are committed to respecting the environment and natural resources, therefore:
We have the CHAIN OF CUSTODY ( PEFC + FSC ) certification, which:
- It evaluates the origin, traceability and legality of all forest raw materials with which we carry out our activity and that in order to obtain them, none of the requirements of the ILO ( International Labor Organization ) have been breached.
- It guarantees that these resources come from forests managed through appropriate practices to promote the improvement and conservation of forest masses.
- It certifies that there has been no illegal cutting or social exploitation.
In 2020, we have made a powerful investment in a 778KW photovoltaic plant at our facilities, which quantitatively translates into:
- 1810 solar panels: occupation of 3,800m2.
- Annual transformation of solar energy into electricity: equivalent to 356 Spanish homes.
- Reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere by 384Tn.
- Positive effect on air quality similar to that generated by almost 40,000 trees!
- Replacement of all old luminaires with LEDs.

- Replacement of all old luminaires with LEDs.
- Reduction of formaldehyde in all our adhesives (glues) and finishing products (finishes), throughout all stages of the production process.
- Incorporation of a new emission-free lacquering technique that guarantees a perfect finish for our doors and a sustainable product that respects nature.
- Wood dust, shredded MDF and chipboards: the cutting, sanding and sawing processes generate shredded wood waste that is absorbed by the aspirations of each machine and disposed of in a silo. A large percentage of this waste is used as fuel for the biomass boiler, producing 3,000,000 Kcal, heating warehouses, offices, presses and dryers, and the surplus is diverted to a solid biomass fuel manufacturing plant.
- Plastic and cardboard: 100% plastic and 100% cardboard, it is transferred separately to a waste management company for further treatment and recovery.
- Varnishes and lacquers: the services of a recycling company are hired for the treatment of 100% of these remains, designated as hazardous waste. The objective of the recycling plants for this type of product is their treatment to extract the solvents from the paints.
