LDA Audio Tech gives a boost to its sustainability strategy by installing solar panels at its headquarters. Thanks to this, the company will be energy self-sufficient and reduce its ecological footprint at manufacturing its products, 100% sustainable and exported to more than 50 countries around the world.<\/p>\n

The location of our headquarters in Malaga, a place with 320 days of sunshine and more than 3,000 hours of sunlight per year, makes it the most conducive environment to undertake this sustainable transformation<\/strong>. The ultimate goal is to be 100% self-sufficient and contribute to the great innovative ecosystem of southern Spain known as Malaga Valley.<\/p>\n

With the solar panels already installed, 80% of the energy used in the manufacture of LDA Audio Tech products now comes from clean sources<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For this project, 120 solar panels have been used with an area of \u200b\u200bapproximately 400 square meters. They are expected to produce 82,000 KWh per year that will mean a reduction in CO2<\/sup> emissions<\/strong> of up to 57 tons per year. This is equivalent to the consumption of 10 average households for 12 months.<\/p>\n

This action is part of the LDA Audio Tech\u2019s commitment to protect the environment<\/strong> through a long-term growth and sustainability strategy. This company policy includes cross-cutting management measures that are part of its corporate social responsibility<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In addition to the use of clean energy, LDA also works for responsible consumption<\/strong> and efficiency improvement with complementary investments, such as changing 100% LED lighting<\/strong> in all the company’s facilities, which will reduce consumption by 50%.<\/p>\n

As for its manufacturing activity, LDA Audio Tech is ruled by a philosophy of sustainability<\/strong> throughout the product cycle, which is RoHs compliant. This means all our products are manufactured without using hazardous materials for health and the environment, as stated by Directive 2002\/95\/EC<\/a> of the European Union about Restriction of Hazardous Substances.<\/p>\n

The company also comply with the Eco RAEE canon and the international WEEE rate that guarantee the process of recycling and environmental management of electronic waste<\/strong>, thus contributing to the reduction of the ecological impact on industrial production processes.<\/p>\n

The growth, sustainability and environment protection strategy developed by LDA Audio Tech also includes other actions to reduce the ecological footprint<\/strong>, such as:<\/p>\n
