Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
Local Commitment, Global Engineering, and Business Ethics
At Caldereria Terns, we believe that a company’s success is also measured by the positive footprint it leaves on its environment. As a family business, our vision integrates industrial excellence with ethical values, seeking to build a sustainable future and provide real solutions to complex problems.
Our Social Responsibility policy is built upon three main pillars:
Innovation with Social Impact: THE BOX
Our technical expertise has allowed us to develop THE BOX, an autonomous mobile station for fuel storage and supply. Although conceived as a high-performance industrial product, its design has proven to have invaluable social value.
Thanks to its robustness, ease of transport, and autonomy, THE BOX has become vital basic infrastructure in remote areas and rural communities in developing countries.
Its technical reliability guarantees access to energy in hostile environments, which is why major international cooperation and humanitarian aid organizations have trusted our equipment for their logistics operations on the ground.

Respect for the environment
We are aware of the importance of protecting our planet and we act accordingly from the very design of the product:
Environmental Safety
Our specialization in double-walled tanks is our greatest ecological contribution, manufacturing equipment specifically designed to contain fluids safely, preventing leaks and protecting soils and aquifers.
Waste management
We apply a strict policy of separation and recycling of metals and consumables.
Efficiency
We optimize our cutting and welding processes to minimize raw material waste and energy consumption.
Safety and equipment
We foster a family work environment, where occupational health and safety are non-negotiable.
Local commitment
We are committed to the industrial fabric of our area, prioritising local suppliers and collaborators to boost the local economy and reduce the logistics carbon footprint.
