The company also won the silver prize in the “Emissions Control Technology” category for use of the most innovative technologies to control emissions, which, based on the strictest certification standards in the world, enable the company to achieve top environmental performances of zero emissions and minimal waste production.

SUNLIGHT’s double distinction in the “Resource Sustainability” section of this year’s Environmental Awards reconfirms the company’s commitment to the principles of sustainable development and its effort to strike a balance between its growth, environmental management and social progress.
