We respect our home, and yoursAll furniture boards used to make INKO products come from sustainable forests. Inko has been working for years to reduce the environmental impact of our operations. We have been eliminating materials and processes that have a negative impact on the planet.
INKO carries out environmental monitoring on all of its production processes. Waste management is carried out by an authorised waste manager.
We have designated areas with skips to ensure that we adequately dispose of the following by-products: cardboard, plastic, wood and its derivatives, solvents and varnishes.
Emissions of dust and harmful particles are controlled, being reduced by means of aspiration systems throughout the production factory.
We require our furniture board suppliers to be MFC certified to ensure they are environmentally friendly. The raw materials used to produce these boards are forest wood, industrial wood and recycled wood.
Batches of recycled wood undergo strict inspections for halogenated organic compounds upon receipt.
Chipboards do not contain halogen organic hardeners. Monitoring of wood and the boards made of said wood is carried out in specially designed environmental laboratories and is subject to monitoring by impartial external institutions. Our furniture boards do not contain active substances from wood preservatives above the approved concentration and comply with current chemical regulations. The formaldehyde content of Innovus MFC boards corresponds to emission class E1, as a general rule. CARB2/TSCA-quality productions are specially made to order.The Innovus MFC board coating is not hazardous; it is made out of decorative papers that have been coated in melamine resin. When pressed using pressure and heat, the previously condensed melamine resin dries completely and can no longer be dissolved in water or solvents. Only organic colouring pigments and titanium dioxide (TiO2) are used in the design of the white decorative items.
ISO14001
INKO is certified by the ISO14001 family of Environmental Management, which guarantees that we are actively committed to reducing the environmental impact of all our operations. The ISO14001 certification verifies that INKO carries out its operations minimising the generation of waste, as well as reducing our raw material consumption.
The certification verifies the firm's commitment to protecting and continuously improving the environment, as well as ensuring that the company makes a conscientious effort to protect the environment in all its operations, thanks to the implementation of our environmental management system.
The ISO 14001 certification corroborates INKO's compliance with environmental legislation and policies and ensures that the company will maintain, revise and modify environmental objectives in order to continuously improve our environmental policy.
Renewed Commitment to the Planet: Our Carbon Footprint Certification
At Inko Cocinas, we are committed to sustainability and the future of our planet. It is with great pride that we announce our recent carbon footprint certification. This achievement is a clear demonstration of our effort to reduce the environmental impact of our productive activity and a step forward in our commitment to sustainable innovation.
Throughout this process, we have conducted a detailed analysis of our CO2 emissions, covering aspects such as electricity consumption, fuel use, and efficient waste management. Our initiatives, such as recycling through authorized managers and the installation of photovoltaic solar energy, have been key to achieving a significant reduction in our environmental footprint.
This recognition motivates us to continue implementing environmentally responsible practices, ensuring that every step we take is in harmony with our surroundings. At Inko Cocinas, we build not only for the present but to ensure a green future for everyone.
The logotype of environmental commitment is the culmination of an internal awareness process that began with a market demand and was implemented through regulatory agency homologation, but which has now become embedded in our corporate culture, causing us to reflect, be aware, and act as a result, so that the environmental impacts of our activities are minimized.
Our company's activities are already audited on a regular basis by these agencies, but we want to take it a step further and spread that we are comfortable with these measures and that we want to atomize them for each of our employees.
One of the objectives of INKO is to reconcile environmental protection with the development of its activities, products, and services. To achieve this, INKO commits to establishing a Management System based on compliance with the Chain of Custody FSC-STD-40-0004-V3-1 and PEFC ST 2002:2020.
In line with the commitment to sustainable management, our management system adapts to the various requirements of the CoC certification to demonstrate that the forest-based materials comprising our end products originate from responsibly and sustainably managed forests.
In this way, our organization is not involved in the following activities:
- Illegal logging or trade of illegal timber or forest products.
- Violation of traditional and human rights in silvicultural operations.
- Destruction of high conservation values in silvicultural operations.
- Significant conversion of forests to plantations or other uses.
- Introduction of genetically modified organisms in silvicultural operations.
- Violation of the Fundamental ILO Conventions: freedom of association and effective recognition of the right to collective bargaining, elimination of all forms of forced or compulsory labor, abolition of child labor, and elimination of discrimination in employment and occupation, as defined in the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.
We all must understand the implications arising from this management policy in our daily work, embrace a consciousness of continuous improvement, prevent potential errors, propose solutions, communicate effectively, identify with the company's objectives, and rigorously follow the requirements derived from our Management System. Continuous improvement of the system can only be achieved through information, consultation, and participation of personnel at all levels and levels of INKO.
