BIODIVERSITY 

For WEG, ecosystems and forests are of utmost importance. For this reason, WEG seeks to incorporate biodiversity preservation into its management practices, in alignment with the guidelines of the WEG Sustainability Policy. The company recognizes the importance of forest protection and understands that this is a shared responsibility. Therefore, practices aimed at preserving biodiversity and natural forests are constantly being improved.

Stakeholder Engagement 

WEG strengthens its engagement on the topic of biodiversity with its stakeholders through close and integrated action. This relationship is established through multiple channels, including dialogue with local communities, customers, investors, and suppliers. Below, we present some concrete examples of these interactions focused on biodiversity conservation.

WEG recognizes that responsible action throughout the entire value chain is essential. Therefore, all new suppliers undergo an evaluation and selection process based on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria, in which biodiversity is specifically considered.

In addition, WEG’s Sustainability Policy defines the responsibilities and strategies aimed at promoting sustainable development, structured into Pillars, Themes, and Strategic Objectives. Developed with stakeholder participation, the policy reinforces the strategic objective of biodiversity preservation, highlighting that the topic is addressed in a cross-cutting manner and integrated into the corporate culture. The policy guidelines apply to all audiences engaged with WEG, including employees, managers, service providers, suppliers, and business partners, reinforcing collective engagement in favor of environmental conservation and the appreciation of biodiversity across all company operations.

As part of another initiative focused on valuing biodiversity and caring for urban spaces, WEG (Sertãozinho unit) carried out the planting of native tree seedlings in a green area adopted by the company. The activity also included waste collection, application of organic compost, and irrigation of the newly planted seedlings, reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainable practices.

In response to a fire that affected an area of the municipality where WEG operates, the company demonstrated its commitment to social and environmental responsibility by actively contributing to the recovery of local vegetation. Through the donation of native seedlings and the voluntary mobilization of its team for planting, WEG joined forces with the local government to restore a public area, reinforcing its role as a positive agent of transformation in the community.

L'éducation environnementale est également un domaine d'action important pour WEG. Pendant deux semaines, le Programme de Vacances au Musée WEG a accueilli 220 enfants de la communauté locale dans des activités alliant jeux, expériences et découvertes.  L'une des activités phares était l’initiative “Animaux de la Région”, réalisée en partenariat avec FUJAMA (Fondation Jaraguaense pour l’Environnement).  L’objectif principal de l’initiative était de promouvoir l’éducation environnementale en sensibilisant les participants à l’importance de préserver la biodiversité locale. 

Au cours de l’activité, des animaux naturalisés représentant des espèces de la faune régionale ont été présentés. L’activité a permis de démontrer de manière pratique et éducative le rôle essentiel de chaque espèce dans l’équilibre des écosystèmes, leurs habitats naturels, leurs habitudes alimentaires et les risques liés à la perte de biodiversité. L’interaction directe avec les spécimens a suscité l’intérêt du public et élargi la compréhension de la richesse de la faune locale. L’activité a contribué à l’engagement de la communauté locale, renforçant l’importance de la conservation des zones naturelles comme condition fondamentale à la survie de ces espèces.
