We made headway in the calculation of our Scope 3, improving the calculation of emissions of our raw materials(both transport and production) and waste generated in and disposed of our operations. The most recently acquired units of Ceramic Tiles also had their emissions calculated and included in the inventory of emissions.We also progressed in the agricultural emissions inventory of the Colombian forest areas and, for the first year, reported inventories at Caetex and LD Celulose, in which we hold partial interest (50.0% and 49.0%, respectively).

The infographics show the consolidated carbon balance of Duratex S.A., comprising our Deca, Wood and Ceramic Tiles operations, as well as Caetex and LDCelulose operations, proportionally to their interests.

In 2020, our operations removed 522,000 tons of CO2e from the atmosphere, excluding emissions.
