2016, Vallis Sustainable Investments I invested in Castelbel, a Portugal-based producer of soap and other scented luxury products. Founded in 2000, the company combines exquisite design with most remarkable fragrances and is marketed around the globe to more than 50 countries. Having begun its production with only 6 workers, today Castelbel number a team of almost 200 dedicated employees focused on quality, sustainability, innovation and responsibility.<\/p>\n<p>In a global context marked by environmental scandals linking to palm oil productions, plastic pollution affecting sea life and a constant search for more natural products, Castelbel has been innovating in order to integrate the response to these issues into its business. Aligned with the 3P concept (People, Planet and Profit) and convinced that sustainability can be a strategy that generates competitive advantage, the company can be considered an example when it comes to integrating ESG criteria in its day-to-day activities.<\/p>\n<p>Committed to using natural and ingredients that respect the Planet and to decrease the use of plastics on its packaging, Castelbel has innovated not only in its products but also in its processes. For instance, the company has replaced palm oil by coconut and olive oil on its soaps and has developed a solid shampoo with 100% of natural ingredients. Additionally, by replacing plastic refills with aluminum ones on fragrance diffusers and by replacing plastic with cork and cardboard on soaps packaging, Castelbel has been engaged to reduce the use of plastic.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e052585 elementor-widget elementor-widget-toggle\" data-id=\"e052585\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"toggle.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-2351\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-2351\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-right\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Valuing local handcraft<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-2351\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-2351\"><p>Produced and developed in Porto, Portugal, all Castelbel products reflect the company\u2019s engagement in promoting the local economy.<\/p>\n<p>Valuing handcrafting as a differentiation factor for its products and committed to using local raw materials, Castelbel creates hundreds of direct and indirect employments.

ESG monitoring and reporting are now reported quarterly to the Board of Directors and annually to all stakeholders of the Company.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b2f1896 elementor-widget elementor-widget-toggle\" data-id=\"b2f1896\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"toggle.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-1871\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-1871\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-right\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">Energy Effeciency Plan<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-1871\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-1871\"><p>The food logistics operations in a multi-client model represent an incredible challenge. To stay competitive, Zolve needs to constantly adapt, driving synergies, operational flexibility, availability, and access to more competitive costs.<\/p>\n<p>With such an ample range of storage temperature, energy-efficiency is both environmental challenge and a survival task to stay competitive. This is why one of the first initiative of the Taskforce was to develop an energy efficiency and emission reduction plan. The action plan includes various initiatives, especially at logistics and transport departments.<\/p>\n<p>The first and the most capital-intensive decision, was an approval for the installation of the photovoltaic panels at both warehouse facilities in 2020. It implies 24.872 square meters of the advanced technology panels both at the ground and at the roof of the warehouses. Both projects implied the total investment of over one million euros, allowing Zolve to save 318 thousand euros annually on the energy bill.<\/p>\n<p>The next important step in the energy efficiency plan, currently in the study and implementation phase, relates to the temperature-controlled transportation vehicles. The project launched at the end of 2020 and will consist in equipping own vehicles with sustainable, intelligent electric power allowing its onboard refrigeration facility to operate purely on electrical power (as opposed to diesel-driven motors currently in use). Not only it allows to reduce the diesel consumption, it will also promote noise reduction and significantly lower CO2 emissions.<\/p>\n<p>The Company is now running various tests to ensure that the system provides not only energy-efficient and environmentally friendly solution but also the most reliable one. Amongst other actions in the Energy Efficiency plan is an improved thermal solution for freezing warehouse, new energy monitoring systems for better control and the sliding doors isolation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a00c7db elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a00c7db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"602\" height=\"272\" src=\"https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Paineis-Zolve.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-922\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Paineis-Zolve.png 602w, https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Paineis-Zolve-300x136.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 602px) 100vw, 602px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-dca8fd8 elementor-section-height-min-height elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-items-middle\" data-id=\"dca8fd8\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;_id&quot;:&quot;5209721&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_tablet&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_mobile&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:50,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_type&quot;:&quot;scroll&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_direction&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_fx_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_z_index&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_animation_prop&quot;:&quot;transform&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;]}]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5c030bf\" data-id=\"5c030bf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-480264a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"480264a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"317\" src=\"https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bottom-plant-1-1024x406.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-683\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bottom-plant-1-1024x406.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bottom-plant-1-300x119.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bottom-plant-1-768x305.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bottom-plant-1-1536x610.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/vallis.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bottom-plant-1.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being the first signatory in Portugal of the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UN PRI), all our investments are driven by our Responsible Investment Policy and are guided by a common philosophy: sustainability as a business opportunity in a changing world.
