As a member of INDEVCO Group, we base our approach to the
environment on our Group concept, which emphasizes harmony
among industry, community, and environment. UTM has put a number
of systems in place to minimize the adverse impact of manufacturing
on its surroundings.
Effluent Treatment
UTM has invested considerably in machinery and personnel
for the development of an efficient Effluent Treatment Plant
(ETP). The physical and chemical properties of the mill’s
discharge are continuously monitored to conform to governmental
environmental standards.
Water Management
UTM constantly modifies and improves its mill processes to minimize the quantity
of fresh water used per ton of tissue. Water is increasingly a precious commodity
in our region.
Recycling
UTM recycles many types of pre- and post-consumer paper, with such major ecological
benefits as the reduction of waste paper dumping and forest conservation.
UTM also manufactures different grades of tissue with various percentages
of recycled fiber.
Energy Management
UTM modifies its production system and introduces
new equipment for efficient use of fossil fuel and reduced
air emissions.
It is out of sincere and comprehensive respect to Mother Nature that UTM management
and employees target the safeguard of the environment in our daily operations.
