Polígono and the environment

In the planning and management of Polígono Industrial de Granadilla, the preservation of the environment and the adoption of measures to eliminate or moderate environmental impacts, both those originating from industrial activity and those due to the physical structure of the Polígono itself, are of paramount importance.

This attitude is not limited to the theoretical level, it is reflected in the finished works and in the plans and projects of future works, where there is a wide and interconnected network of free land, largely in its natural state, which dilutes the visual impact of the urbanized sectors, serving as protection for the infrastructures and enabling the development of native species of flora and fauna with unusual success.

Environmental actions include the restoration of the riverbeds of the three large cliffs that cross Polígono: El Cobón, El Callao and Tagoro-Las Monjas, and the preservation of the Piña de Mar SCI and the Montaña Pelada natural monument. Other programs in execution are those related to water; Polígono Industrial de Granadilla is participating in the phased construction of several seawater desalination plants.

The first stage is already in operation and allows for complete self-sufficiency of Polígono, greatly reducing the use of groundwater. In relation to wastewater, there is a project underway for the recycling of wastewater to irrigate green areas and for various industrial uses.
