en.Wedoany.com Reported - M. Dias Branco announced that its mill in Rolândia, Paraná, has officially achieved zero-landfill status. The company, a signatory to the UN Global Compact (through the Brazilian network), now has 11 operational units that have reached the zero-landfill goal, marking progress in integrating corporate responsibility principles and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into its long-term strategy, with a focus on waste management.

The zero-landfill concept means that all waste generated during operations is not sent to landfills but is managed through reduction, reuse, recycling, or energy recovery, thereby strengthening the circular economy and reducing environmental impact.
Currently, the 11 units with zero-landfill certification include: Eusébio (CE), Fortaleza Specialty Fats and Margarine Plant (CE), Maracanaú (CE), Cabedelo (PB), Jaboatão dos Guararapes (PE), Bento Gonçalves (RS), Campina Grande do Sul (PR), Queimados (RJ), Rio de Janeiro (RJ), Natal (RN), and the newly added Rolândia (PR).
Complete information on waste management, public targets, and sustainability progress is available in the 2025 Integrated Annual Report (RELATORIO-M-DIAS-BRANCO-2025.pdf) on the M. Dias Branco official website.
