MORE ABOUT OUR ACTIONS
Ágora Bogotá is a building designed according to the most important sustainability standards. Through seemingly simple practices, we achieve significant resource savings, enabling long-term building efficiency and, of course, environmental balance in its immediate surroundings. These practices are carried out through:
WASTE MANAGEMENT:
We have a comprehensive waste management program that seeks from separation at the source to recover the greatest possible amount of materials, through recycling and recovery processes of organic waste (from food), adding an additional stage of reclassification that Our collection center takes place prior to shipment to the final destination (use or landfill).
This exercise is carried out through alliances with waste managers that allow the reincorporation of recycled material into productive processes (plastic, cardboard, paper, multi-material, metals, etc.); The same happens with food waste that is sent to composting processes for the production of organic fertilizer.
These actions have allowed us to reduce the volumes of waste sent to landfills.
