The examples below illustrate the types of environmental challenges we help our clients solve. Where confidentiality agreements permit, we include project audiovisuals and, where available, links to case studies that provide deeper insight into each project's scope, methodology, and outcomes.
Installation of a Plastic Sorting Plant with Optical Readers
A company in western Mexico invested in a state-of-the-art waste sorting facility equipped with optical readers. We oversaw the full implementation of the project, including machinery assembly, electrical and pneumatic installations, and permit management with local authorities. Our work also covered facility design as well as the development and execution of both operational and administrative procedures, ensuring the plant’s efficient start-up and compliance.
Cooling System Selection for Plastic Injection Machines
An industrial manufacturer required the best-value cooling system for its plastic injection equipment. We prepared a competitive tender, developed terms of reference, and coordinated technical consultations with suppliers in both the local area and Mexico City. The selected system not only met current needs but also allowed for future production line expansion.
Assembly of an Automotive Mats Factory Using Recycled Materials
An automotive mats manufacturer invested in a new factory to produce products from recycled materials. We transformed an existing warehouse into a fully operational plant, managing electrical installations, layout design, restroom and office construction, raw material reception logistics, finished goods dispatch planning, machinery installation with cooling systems, and optimization of storage and forklift routes.
Rehabilitation of a Rubber Recycling Facility
A rubber recycling company producing new products from recovered materials needed to update permits, perform maintenance, and reorganize its work areas. We facilitated permit and license renewals, identified maintenance needs, sourced and selected contractors, and redesigned work areas to improve efficiency and compliance.
Planning Waste Collection and Recovery at a Tool Manufacturer
One of Mexico’s leading tool manufacturers required updated waste handling procedures for a plant in the west of the country. Working with a waste collection provider, we designed and implemented on-site separation systems for various plastics, along with recovery and recycling processes, improving both efficiency and environmental compliance.
Installation of a temporary centre for sorting and separating plastic waste for recycling
In the north of the country, a major manufacturing company produced a lot of plastic waste. In order to sell it, a temporary plastic sorting centre had to be set up. At the centre, the plastic was sorted by material and sent to different companies that paid for it. These companies then used the post-industrial plastic to manufacture new products.
Plastic Recycling in Northern Mexico
A major manufacturing company sought to sell its plastic waste, but the mixed nature of the material made it commercially worthless. We designed and implemented an on-site separation and collection process, transforming the waste into a marketable commodity and enabling the company to generate revenue from its by-products.
Pallet Recycling in Western Mexico
A major manufacturing company faced significant pallet accumulation due to slow collection logistics. We developed a tailored logistics program involving multiple specialized companies for pallet collection, repair, and manufacturing. This streamlined the process and resolved the client’s operational bottleneck.
Process Design for Fiscal Destruction of Food and Beverage Inventory
A recycling company required a formalized process for the destruction of inventory from the food and beverage sector to meet fiscal and regulatory requirements. We developed and implemented a detailed destruction procedure, including inventory reception, custody protocols, machinery deployment, and crew coordination to ensure secure and compliant operations.
Operational Planning for a Waste Collection Center
A waste infrastructure operator required a comprehensive operational plan for a new collection center. We designed end-to-end procedures covering vehicle reception, waste unloading, material processing and separation, and outbound logistics for recycling or final disposal.
Construction of a Glass Factory in Guadalajara, Mexico
An investment was successfully made in a glass manufacturing facility to supply bottles for the Tequila industry. As part of this process, a partnership with an important waste recycling firm was established, ensuring that the required supply of glass was guaranteed through a reliable, circular economy approach.
