Together with the Social Responsibility policy of the Salvador Caetano Group, CaetanoBus has a socially responsible posture towards the community in which it is located. Our commitment, internal and external, is based on the focus of creating a better future and in satisfying the needs of current and future generations, a legacy left to us by our Founder, Salvador Fernandes Caetano, known for being a businessman with an entrepreneurship vision, a dreamer, guided by the maxim of “Always present in the construction of the Future”.
Today, CaetanoBus dedicates its activity to the production and development of a product aware of global sustainability challenges. In the area of mobility, the development of electric solutions represents a step towards a future where we project the introduction of clean energy in various segments, namely in cities and in airports. Based on a guidance of circular economy, we develop projects, such as the Diesel to Electric Upgrade (D2EU), which is based on the re-conversion of diesel airport vehicles into 100% electric traction vehicles, increasing the life cycle of the product by another 10 years, providing a new commercial logic with a positive impact on people and on the environment.
The satisfaction and well-being of our Employees is an internal premise with which we are concerned and to which we are dedicated on a daily basis. Our People are at the base of our success, and it is for them that we guide our efforts of corresponding to their expectations. Our performance is governed by the highest standards of ethics, justice, honesty and integrity, and so we lead our businesses in a transparent manner, based on strong and lasting partnerships, as well as on social cooperation with various entities.
The Company has implemented an Energy and Environmental Management System, managed and coordinated by a work team exclusively dedicated to this, and which is aimed at guaranteeing the adequate compatibility of investment decisions. In addition to this, our contribution to environmental preservation, through reforestation of the territory in which we are located, stands out.
The tight connection CaetanoBus has with scientific and higher education entities is quite important as we contribute to the development of new technological solutions. The company, already with a 70 years history, continues to be committed to innovation and development. Following this commitment, it develops partnerships and programmes aimed at increasing the know-how of Employees and which may translate into the development of new solutions with added value to society.
