Asofarma is an association created by Laboratorios Farma for the purpose of contributing to the wellbeing of its people, their families, the community and the environment by means of Corporate Social Responsibility through its main course of action, “Leaving a Footprint.”
Our CSR program is based on four pillars covering specific areas that are important to us as an organization: Education Footprint, Health Footprint, Environmental Footprint, Solidarity Footprint.
We understand that we are responsible for preserving the environment in which we work and evolve. That is why we are committed to our work on a variety of programs aimed at the conservation of water, soil, air and living beings that allow us to contribute to sustainable development and ensure that future generations will enjoy a better environment.
All the activities involving our Environmental Footprint are handled and managed by our Workplace Safety, Health and Environment Department.
Iguanafarma
This is one of our organization’s most important programs, the goal being to protect the iguanas that live on our premises in Maracay. Taking advantage of the expertise of well-known international advisors, we make sure that some 200 iguanas receive the nurturing and care they require for their development by providing watering spots, medical attention and supplementary nutrition with vitamins, minerals and anti-parasite medication.
Water treatment system
We are committed to caring for the environment and, to that end, designed a treatment system to process wastewater from the washing and sanitation of our production, service and laboratory areas in order to pour it back, in the proper condition, into the Lake of Valencia basin with no harm to the ecosystem.
Handling waste
We take great care to make sure that we recycle all non-hazardous waste, such as paper, cardboard, glass and plastic received from our different suppliers for our production process.
The material is sorted, collected and delivered to different companies, with whom we have formed alliances, that transform and repurpose this waste in order to have as little impact as possible on our environment and natural resources.
Iguanas have always played a very special role throughout the years, having been very much with us as our organization has grown and evolved. That is why we have wished to shine a spotlight on them and have chosen Guanita as our mascot.
We are determined to work with others for the common good, because we care what happens to others, we feel empathy for them and sympathize when they are facing difficult situations.
We at Laboratorios Farma consider Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) to be a commitment undertaken by our organization as regards the impact of our operations. That is why we are careful how we act and pay special attention to social, environmental and ethical factors affecting those around us.
This policy is considered to be a frame of reference for engaging in and fostering socially responsible behavior on the part of Asofarma in its field of action:
All our CSR actions are carried out on the basis of well defined principles that define us, guide our decision-making and allow us to ensure that our daily actions are in line with our raison d’être.
Collaboration
We consistently aim to spontaneously help and serve our interest groups when they are facing difficulties via our many programs and activities.
Respect
We accept, appreciate, value and acknowledge the rights of others and the environment as part of all our actions.
Excellence
All the actions we take in favor of those around us are carried out with the commitment, care and quality they deserve.
At Asofarma we endeavor to foster training, health care, environmental conservation and solidarity by means of a variety of programs, initiatives and activities that will have a positive impact for our people, their families and the communities around our administrative and production facilities.
Asofarma’s Corporate Social Responsibility report provides an annual summary of the main activities carried out, both within and outside our organization, in connection with each of the pillars of Leaving a Footprint.
This is proof of our commitment to all our interest groups in the form of high-impact actions that confirm our status as a socially and environmentally responsible company.
