100 years manufacturing cardboard boxes. A history of sustainability

100 years manufacturing cardboard boxes. A history of sustainability

This year, in FXSANMARTÍWe're celebrating something very special: 100 years creating solutions in cardboard and corrugated cardboard. It's not just an anniversary, it's an opportunity to look back and be proud of everything we've built... and how we've done it.

For if there is anything that has guided us all this time, it has been liability. Not just with our clients, but with the planet.

More than making cardboard boxes: taking care of what surrounds us

From day one we understood that cardboard has enormous value: is resistant, versatile and environmentally friendly. But we also knew that was not enough. Throughout our decades of experience, we have made decisions that have allowed us to reduce the impact of our activity and continually improve.

We have:

  • Betted on recycled and certified raw materials.
  • Optimized our processes to save energy and generate less waste.
  • Designed reusable and increasingly environmentally friendly cardboard packaging.
  • Working with providers who share our sustainable vision.

It wasn't easy, but every step was worth it. Because when you turn 100, what really counts is How it got here.

Energy from the sun… and commitment

And if we talk about the future, there is an advance that marks a before and after: today We generate 100% of our energy with solar panels. It is a huge achievement, reflecting our understanding of the world.

Even at certain times, that clean energy we produce allows us to contribute to the electrical system, returning to the network what we do not use.

All of this means:

  • Saying goodbye to fossil fuels.
  • Drastically reduce our emissions.
  • Bet on a more conscious industry, without neglecting quality and efficiency.

Celebrating while looking ahead

Reaching the centennial is not just closing a chapter: it is opening a new chapter with more force than ever before. At FXSANMARTI, we believe that experience is measured in yearsYes, but also in decisions that build a legacy.

We will continue to work so that each cardboard box we manufacture not only transport products, but also our values: sustainability, innovation and respect for what surrounds us.
