Dexco has fostered and contributed to social development through its Private Social Investment, giving products away, sponsoring projects through tax incentive laws, and entering into institutional partnerships.
Dexco’s Social Investment is aligned with our Sustainability Strategy, Our Way to Be and Do Things, and our company’s purpose.

Dexco understands that positive impacts on society must be combined with well-defined strategies, so that they are assertive and effective. However, in many situations, specific interventions are necessary, through donations. To this end, Dexco has established an Internal Standard that regulates donations of its products or purchased goods, to meet specific needs.
The Social Responsibility area (ESG Management team) manages donations, ensuring compliance with the criteria and verifying that donations were properly implemented.
In 2023, the amount of donations more than R$ 900,000, in market value of Dexco products or goods acquired by the Company, benefiting 17 institutions and 8 municipalities. With the rains that hit the north coast of São Paulo at the beginning of 2023, we donated R$ 180,000 in a joint action with the Gerando Falcões organization. We also donated Dexco products, including panels for the manufacture of furniture, for distribution to communities affected by the flood that occured in 2023 in the Vale do Taquari (RS).
Sponsorships, in turn, aim to encourage local social initiatives, based on projects and programs that generate a positive impact and promote social transformation. For this, we use the tax incentive laws (Federal and State).
The Company’s priority areas of action are: education, culture, health, environment and housing. Our goal is to operate in all municipalities where we operate and establish connections with the main social projects aligned with the strategy, with more assertive investment and efficient management.
Throughout 2023 Dexco supported five projects, investing R$ 1.2 million through state tax incentive and direct contribution laws. Considering the execution of the projects throughout 2023, since initiatives of this nature usually start in the years after their sponsorship, we have benefited more than 24,000 people in 12 municipalities.
The selected projects are evaluated as follows:
We support projects through tax incentive Federal and State Law aligned with Dexco’s Corporate responsibility guidelines and the Sustainability Strategy. All projects are analyzed and receive feedback.

We believe creating a network of partnerships is essential, since complex problems cannot be solved without engaging several stakeholders. Therefore, Dexco creates institutional partnerships that resonate with our goals and seek sustainable development, promotion of knowledge and education, value diversity, and fight child sexual exploitation.
