Spanos Group operates with respect for the environment and has adopted a proactive and comprehensive environmental approach across all stages of its business activities.
The company recognises that environmental protection is a key factor in sustainable development and systematically invests in technologies and processes that reduce its ecological footprint.

Its environmental policy is based on the following pillars:

• Reduction of energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions,
• Rational use of natural resources and responsible waste management, prioritising recycling,

• Promotion of green products and low-emission equipment,
• Continuous training of employees and partners in environmental responsibility,
• Full compliance with national and European environmental legislation.

Spanos Group aims to develop an ISO 14001 Environmental Management System in the near future, strengthening the systematic monitoring of its environmental performance.

The company operates in facilities with a total area of 2,100 m² (600 m² offices and 1,500 m² technical area), equipped with cranes, workshop tools, and maintenance machinery.
Annual electricity consumption is estimated at 75,000–80,000 kWh, considering a five-day working week and mixed office–production usage.

Spanos Group implements several energy efficiency practices, including:

• Extensive use of LED lighting throughout all areas,
• Regular maintenance of equipment to prevent energy losses,
• Staff training on the rational use of electricity.

In addition, the company’s fleet includes:

• 4 hybrid corporate vehicles with an average consumption of 6 litres/100 km, and
• 1 light-duty truck with annual mileage of approximately 15,000 km,
  corresponding to annual emissions of approximately 10–12 tonnes of CO₂, a remarkably low amount given the company’s size and activity.

The company is also considering the future installation of a photovoltaic system for self-generation of electricity, aiming to reduce total emissions by at least 20% within the next three years.

Water use is limited to sanitary and cleaning purposes, with no industrial consumption.
Annual consumption is estimated at 250–300 m³, and there is no discharge of hazardous liquid waste.

The company applies water-saving measures such as regular leakage inspections and limiting outdoor cleaning activities, while also exploring the possibility of rainwater collection for technical use in the future.

Spanos Group operates a waste management system that promotes recycling and material reuse.
Metal residues from production are collected and delivered to licensed recycling entities, while non-recyclable waste accounts for less than 10% of the total volume.
The company is looking to source raw materials (metals, mechanical parts, and components) with 40–50% recycled content, prioritising suppliers certified with recognised environmental standards.

All products and components traded by the company are over 90% recyclable, as they are composed almost entirely of metallic parts, significantly reducing the environmental footprint at the end of their life cycle.

The company does not release polluting or hazardous chemical substances into the environment.
Small quantities of technical materials (lubricants, cleaning agents) are handled by licensed hazardous waste management companies, in accordance with safe storage and disposal regulations.

Spanos Group monitors annual fuel and electricity consumption, with the goal of conducting more accurate Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions calculations in the next stage of its ESG maturity.

The company’s facilities are covered by an insurance policy that includes protection against natural hazards (earthquakes, fire, flood, extreme weather phenomena).

Spanos Group does not operate in protected or environmentally sensitive areas (e.g., Natura 2000) and complies fully with all required prevention and safety measures.

As part of its environmental strategy, Spanos Group has set the following objectives for the 2025–2027 period:

• Reduce energy consumption by 15% per unit of output,
• Reduce CO₂ emissions by 20% through hybrid fleet operations and photovoltaic generation,
• Achieve at least 95% recycling of solid waste,
• Integrate ISO 14001 processes and an environmental performance measurement system,
• Raise awareness among employees and partners through educational programs.

Commitment to environmental responsibility is a strategic advantage and core value for Spanos Group, enhancing its reputation as a responsible and innovative partner in the field of green technologies.
