Abstract
Introduction. COSERVICIOS S.A. founded in 1965 is a company from the construction sector,
devoted to the production of elevators. This company, with a concern about increasing its
environmental behaviour, facilitated the space for a detailed environmental study for all of its
processes, and it became a very important tool for its integral plan for the management of solid
waste. Materials and methods: An environmental study to diagnose and develop all the
activities necessary for reducing the identified environmental impacts, focussing, in first place,
on dangerous and not dangerous solid waste, given the fact that they are generate in the production
processes and create traumatic situations in them. Results: By implementing the plan,
everybody in the company changed their attitudes towards the management of waste materials,
a better use of resources and a more organized way to organize the production processes.
Conclusions: Implementing this plan in COSERVICIOS S.A. created a new consciousness and
changes in the way they face environmental issues and cleaner production.
