As a manufacturer of shoe trimmings, what techniques do we use at BRITIGRAF to reduce our environmental footprint?
13 May 2025

As footwear ornament manufacturers, we have the responsibility to evolve towards more sustainable models. At BRITIGRAF, we have embraced this commitment and apply it at every stage of our production process. One of our main initiatives has been the installation of solar panels, which allows us to be self-sufficient with renewable energy and significantly reduce CO₂ emissions.

Thanks to this 100KW industrial self-consumption investment, we obtain a significant portion of our energy from a clean source, minimizing the environmental impact of our operations. This step has allowed us to move towards a more environmentally friendly production model that aligns with our clients’ values.

In addition to solar energy, we apply a series of sustainable techniques in our manufacturing processes:

  • Use of recycled materials such as TPU, cotton, and natural fibers.
  • Production with Bio Plastisols, a phthalate-free alternative made with 50% natural-origin components.
  • Optimization of energy consumption in machinery through efficient maintenance and low-energy technologies.
  • Minimization of industrial waste by implementing internal material reuse systems.

Being responsible manufacturers means innovating not only in design but also in sustainability. That’s why at BRITIGRAF, we integrate these solutions into our daily production.

BRITIGRAF, footwear ornament manufacturers committed to sustainability

As footwear ornament manufacturers focused on a sustainable production model, at BRITIGRAF we understand that caring for the environment is an essential part of our mission. That’s why we have developed a global strategy based on three pillars: materials, processes, and certifications.

1. Planet-friendly materials

Our footwear components can be manufactured using materials with lower environmental impact, such as:

  • Recycled TPU: sourced from leftover materials from previous productions.
  • Natural cork: a biodegradable and renewable material.
  • Plant fibers such as jute or hemp.
  • Labels made from recycled or compostable paper.

2. Clean and responsible production

  • Micro-injection, high-frequency, and digital printing techniques optimized to generate less waste.
  • Eco-friendly inks and processes that avoid the use of metals.
  • Rational use of water and energy in every phase of the process.

3. Environmental certifications

At BRITIGRAF we hold certifications such as:

  • GRS (Global Recycled Standard)
  • OEKO-TEX

These seals not only guarantee environmental responsibility but also build trust among our clients, who seek responsible and verified solutions for their collections.
