The purpose of this paper is to determine how, through the implementation of recycling mechanisms, ecological actions and innovative projects such as the creation of a recycling plant for PET bottles and a power plant, Enka de Colombia managed to increase its levels of profitability in the years 2013 to 2015. In order to fulfill this objective, a research is proposed using an inductive methodological design, since the knowledge generated emerges from particular phenomena and situations already described previously, in order to obtain conclusions regarding the evolution and financial growth of the company.
Very positive results are obtained, because the company focused its attention on a new line of business, very profitable for it; this was because Enka generated its own raw material derived from PET bottles, reducing production costs and becoming the leaders in PET recycling. In addition to generating its own benefits, the company, when implementing the recycling mechanisms, not only impacts the environment, saving 92% of energy by using its own plant (Energy savings equivalent to the consumption of 262,000 households), reducing 72% of CO2 emissions when compared to virgin resin production; but also impacts on the community generating employment for more than 2,800 people, who are mostly mothers head of family, displaced and reinserted. |
