Dedicated to drive long-term, positive change through our implementation of sustainable ESG practices
At SHV Energy, we are all responsible for looking after each other. The social frame outlines our responsibility to take care of our employees, workers in the value chain, and the impact we have on communities we serve.
The new Green Head Project in Brazil is helping us reduce waste in our filling process. A new self-cleaning head now saves 30g of LPG per filling for each 13kg domestic cylinder, resulting in 200 times fewer emissions at the moment of disconnection.
What does this mean? Our biggest filling plant is Duque de Caxias, where we fill approximately 65000 P13 cylinders each day. The new approach translates into almost 48 tonnes of LPG savings per month. This system also reduces the risk of explosion, and increases air quality around the filling plant, creating a cleaner and safer environment. 20 of our carrousels across 11 filling plants now use this technology, and we plan to install green heads in most of our filling plants.
