SDGs - Sustainable Development Goals

Laboratorios Argenol, manufacturer of BactiBlock® antimicrobial additives, strongly believes in the Sustainable Development Goals and therefore carries out specific actions accordingly.

Different actions have been progressively implemented over the last few years which has led to a more dynamic commitment. Today we can say that we are proud of the goals achieved and we look forward to continuing working to do our bit:

The recruitment processes are aimed at searching young and qualified personnel according to the specific needs of each job position. Recruitment of research personnel from Universities. Continuous training in innovation and languages.
