Global vision, local action
Kao Chemicals Europe carries out a series of actions to improve year after year. Although this year has been somewhat atypical due to the emergence of COVID-19 - it has led to the cancellation of some of the planned actions and the modification of the approach of others - initiatives to improve biodiversity have continued. The planting of different species has been carried out in the centres.
In Kao Corporation, invasive species control actions have been maintained; the monitoring of the nest boxes and the insect hotel installed in 2020 has been carried out and the placement of nest boxes has been expanded in the centres of Olesa de Montserrat and Mollet del Vallès.
The initiative to choose the species of the year, in this case the sparrow, has also been launched and, throughout the year, information has been disseminated to make it known.
The purpose of this initiative is to disclose the species that inhabit our establishments and learn more about them.
For its part, Kao Chimigraf has proceeded to install nest boxes, carry out outreach activities in which information has been provided on the most common species in the area, information on natural areas around the centres, etc.
