The world is constantly changing and evolving. To stay at the forefront and meet our Stakeholder’s needs, at Progreso our DAN calls upon us to innovate.
The sustainability criteria that guide our operations mark each innovation proposal. From managing our resources efficiently, such as quarry recovery plans, rainwater collection in reservoirs, Social Interest Urban Housing Modules development, and even using a biodegradable film instead of plastic, to grow trees in our nurseries.
More than just products, we offer integral solutions that place our customers at the center of the process.
Processes at the San Miguel Plant are automated and efficient in almost 100% of the cement and lime manufacturing phases.
