Social
commitment

SETGA retains 98% of its value chain in Western Europe. Of all the components integrated by its manufacturing line located in Pontevedra, 81% of the added value comes from within a radius of 150 km, and 15% from a radius of within 1,200 km. Through this industrial philosophy, most of the 65 direct and 130 indirect positions are generated close to our customers, while preserving the highest standards of quality and sustainability, in terms of both the environment and working conditions.

In the bidding processes of a burgeoning number of central European public authorities, SETGA has been recognised and valued for the development of a productive model based on the concept of “Social Return on Investment” or “Corporate Social Responsibility” (SROI and CSR respectively), making social commitment compatible with business efficiency. The increasing recruitment of long-term unemployed people aged over 45 and their dependents has revealed new sources of talent thanks to the programme created by SETGA and the Spanish Red Cross, el “LIGHT AND TALENT”, the first transversal training and social employment programme carried out in the European public and technical lighting industry.

Environmental
sustainability

In 2015, SETGA adapted its sustainability master plan to the 3S strategy: “Speeding Sustainable Spiral”, whose aim is to accelerate the spiral of sustainability throughout the value chain, from the individual production of each component to integration in the final product.

This interconnected manufacturing philosophy is based on proximity manufacturing, and allows the implementation of a transversal environmental audit system where not only the internal processes of SETGA are ISO14001 certified and ROHS compliant, but all of their TIER 1 providers also hold these certifications.

At present, the product portfolio stands out for the prevalence of highly recyclable materials, whose transformation processes have experienced a substantial reduction in their environmental impact.

Equal Opportunity
Plan

SETGA, S.L.U has always opted for integration, sustainability and equality. That’s why, voluntarily, we want to express our commitment against sexual and gender discrimination, seeking equal opportunities between women and men, through the implementation of our Equality Plan.

Our goal is to continue fighting against any type of discrimination or inequality through a series of measures and actions, which guarantee that every one of us has the same opportunities within the company.
