The Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) program is a framework used to assess and improve our performance in key areas related to sustainability, ethical practices, and social responsibility. Each component of ESG represents a different aspect of Emerios’ impact on the world:

Environmental (E): This dimension focuses on Emerios’ impact on the environment. It includes considerations such as:

• Carbon footprint
• Energy efficiency
• Water management, pollution and waste awareness
• Natural resource conservation
• Climate change initiatives

We aim to implement environmentally responsible practices and reduce any negative impact on the planet.

Social (S): The social component of ESG evaluates Emerios’ relationships with our team members, customers, communities, and other stakeholders. Key areas include:

• Team Members’ relations and labor practices
• Wellness, safety and health
• Diversity and inclusion
• Human rights
• Community engagement

Having a strong social performance aims to contribute positively to the well-being of our team and society at large.

Governance (G): Governance refers to the systems and processes by which Emerios is directed and supervised. This includes:

• Ethics and compliance
• Transparency and accountability
• Business practices improvements
• Internal controls
• Security and compliance

Good governance ensures that we operate ethically, transparently, and with accountability to our stakeholders.

Purpose of the ESG Program:

Risk Management: The ESG program helps to identify and manage risks related to environmental issues, social challenges, and governance practices that could impact long-term performance.

Stakeholder Relations: A strong ESG performance can attract socially responsible stakeholders. Sustainable companies aim to work with partners who share the same principles.

Sustainability: ESG initiatives align with the broader goal of creating sustainable business practices that consider long-term impacts on the environment, society, and corporate governance.

We remain focused on:

• Environmental Stewardship: Demonstrating responsible resource use, waste reduction, and environmentally friendly practices.
• Social Responsibility: Prioritizing fair labor practices, fostering diversity and inclusion, and supporting the well-being of our team members and communities.
• Ethical Business Conduct: Upholding high standards of integrity and ethical behavior in all our business dealings.
• Our Commitment: Receiving recognition and collaborating with different projects is a significant milestone for Emerios, and it motivates us to continue our journey towards sustainability excellence. We understand the importance of these values not only for our business but also for the communities we serve.
• Continuous Improvement: We remain committed to ongoing improvement in our sustainability performance. We believe in transparent communication and will keep you updated on our progress and initiatives.

Sustainability Commitment

At Emerios, sustainability is not just a practice—it's a commitment embedded in our core values. Our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) program reflects our dedication to responsible business practices, environmental stewardship, and social impact.

We have been developing several initiatives for the past few years to align our practices with the highest global standards. As part of them, we are pleased to announce that Emerios has been working with EcoVadis.
EcoVadis is a globally recognized sustainability assessment platform, employing a rigorous evaluation process. We started our assessments process with them in 2022, and since then we are committed to continuous improvement. We consider that this journey reflects our efforts to minimize our environmental footprint, champion social responsibility, and uphold ethical business conduct.

We are also proud to partner with Carbon Neutral+, which is a climate tech company that aims to contribute to climate change mitigation by helping companies to effectively balance the social, economic and environmental aspects of their operation.
We are working collaboratively to take action and promote a positive impact.

This is how we manage our corporate carbon footprint:

• Measurement: We analyze our environmental impact and set expectations.
• Reduction: We take initiatives to minimize emissions.
• Compensation: We collaborate with different projects to offset remaining emissions.

2022: 20% offset of our carbon footprint.

We collaborated with the Amazon Forest protection - REDD+ project to prevent deforestation, preserve biodiversity, and support local sustainable socioeconomic development.
Additionally, we have generated a plus impact by planting 118 native trees in the Lanin National Park in collaboration with Amigos de la Patagonia in Neuquén, Argentina.

2023: 50% offset of our carbon footprint.

We participated again in the Amazon Forest protection - REDD+ project.
