Abstract
Introduction. Metálicas Caldas Ltda is an industry from the metal-mechanic sector, founded
in 1981 and specialized on making machinery and parts for industrial uses in general. Its solid
waste management has ever been inappropriate.
Methodology. In recent years, Metálicas Caldas Ltda has been implementing within its processes,
integral policies for the management of solid waste.
Results. By implementing those policies, we achieved a reduction of the environmentally
harmful impact produced by the waste, a better consciousness among employees and also a
saving of economic resources, which are now used in welfare programs for the employees and
their families.
Conclusion. It is clear that incorporating cleaner production policies in metal mechanic industries
is important.
