VIVA Environmental

Globally and across all industries, there has been a move toward implementing solutions that have a reduced impact on the environment, and the steel fabrication industry is no exception. To help our clients meet aggressive sustainability targets, and to set an example within the steel industry, reducing our carbon footprint and environmental impact is a key focus for Viva Engineering. We’ve taken significant steps to reduce our impact on the environment, introducing a number of sustainable practices into our business: We’ve installed a PV Solar Power system with 340 panels that run 45% of our manufacturing operations off-the-grid during the day. The PV Solar Power system will be expanded and upgraded over the coming years and once complete, our operations will be 90% off the grid. View our environmental counter to see the direct positive impact that our PV solar system has had on the reduction of carbon emissions. A program has been initiated to reduce our energy consumption. This started with a review of workshop lighting and energy loads and included the replacement of a number of welding machines with new modern machines which were substantially more energy efficient. We recycle 100% of the remnants of our fabrication processes. By implementing effective recycling processes, we have significantly reduced energy consumption, lowering our carbon emissions and minimizing our waste production. At Viva Engineering, we are committed to making important shifts that will drive our business forward sustainably and effectively using the engineering and innovation at our disposal to do so and we’re committed to helping our partners to achieve the same. Every client is issued a ‘Sustainability Certificate’ as part of the project close-out process, offering full peace of mind that their project has had a significantly reduced impact on the environment than before.
