Aragón Circular

The objective of the circular economy is to make the most of resources, reduce raw materials and take advantage of waste, recycling it or giving it a new life to, in short, extend the life cycle of products.

In this sense, the Government of Aragon created the Aragón Circular community, made up of all those companies in the province of Aragón that contribute to the transition of Aragonese society towards the circular economy, promoting and supporting its evolution towards excellent, innovative management , sustainable and circular, in which Defeder is adhered.

The entities adhering to the “Declaration for the Circular Economy in Aragon” form part of the Circular Aragón Community.

Initially, the linear economy focuses on extracting, producing, consuming and throwing away, while the circular economy is extracting, producing, consuming, reusing and recycling.

In the Declaration for the Circular Economy in Aragon, the signatories commit, for example, to contribute to the achievement of the objectives established in the Action Plan for the Circular Economy in Europe in line with the European Growth Strategy 2020 and the Roadmap towards an efficient Europe in the use of resources; to inform and raise awareness of the progress of the linear model as it circulates in our sphere of business, work, educational or personal influence; or to promote innovation in eco-design in products, their packaging and production systems, guaranteeing their efficiency in the use of energy and materials, and increasing their reuse and recyclability. The plan includes up to a total of 16 measures to move towards the achievement of a circular, competitive, diversified innovative economy, the backbone of the territory, generator of quality employment, efficient in the use of resources and more resilient to the effects derived from the climate change.

Circular Economy

The transformation of the current Economy towards a Circular Economy is a process that is coming with force and is currently presented as an irreversible and urgent trend at the international level.
The sustainability of this economy is based on minimizing the use of natural and energy resources, replacing them with resources derived from by-products and waste generated, and from emissions derived from production processes and from the consumption of goods and services.
Actions such as the reuse of disused products and the recovery of waste, lengthening the life cycle of products as much as possible and improving the efficiency of processes and uses, facilitate innovation and circularity of the economy and business and social competitiveness. and environmental.
In addition, it contributes to a diversified, eco-efficient and more resilient economy in the face of resource scarcity (raw materials, water and energy) and in the face of the effects of climate change.

At Defeder we are committed to the circular economy, which is why we offer an opportunity to organic raw materials, which are regularly discarded and given a second life. We manufacture organic nutrients for sustainable agriculture through the circular economy and viability, hand in hand with R+D+i, thus contributing to a healthier future.
