The production lines at Antarte's manufacturing units generate wood waste. | Wood residues are sucked up by systems placed next to each machine, preventing them from accumulating on the floor. | After being vacuumed, the waste goes through ducts placed next to the factory roof, to a collector outside. |

From the collector they are placed in a boiler, where combustion takes place to produce heat that is sent through ducts into the factory and used for two purposes. | 1st Purpose: Used for drying materials in greenhouses, saving energy consumption for this purpose. | 2nd Purpose: To heat the manufacturing facilities, maintaining a pleasant temperature in the coldest seasons to improve the comfort of employees, without consuming additional energy. |
