than on copper.
Our projectiles are as green as possible.
Taking care of our planet means taking care of ourselves, and every gesture counts.
These words have become a commitment that guides our actions when it comes to better living together or environmental issues. On a day-to-day basis, we give priority to the least damaging options for the environment, the most respectful and responsible for ourselves, our neighbors and our customers.
Health
Lead or FMJ-type projectiles can cause lead fumes and dust. Lead enters the mouth and lungs, and its presence in the human body, even at low levels of contamination, can lead to adverse health effects.
CamPro® products provide a safe environment. Many of our projectiles are completely encapsulated in a thick layer of copper.
To provide effective protection against lead fumes when firing, the copper coating must cover the entire projectile and be thick enough to prevent the barrel grooves from piercing it. CamPro® projectiles far exceed these requirements.
Water saving
We take great care to control our water consumption and use it responsibly.
Water is essential to the projectile manufacturing process. We have invested in technologies that enable us to treat and reuse our industrial wastewater.
It’s a zero-liquid-discharge achievement of which we’re very proud. It has enabled us to significantly reduce our consumption of drinking water.
Environmental compliance
Projectile manufacturing requires the use of metals and numerous chemical products, which in turn calls for rigorous maintenance of industrial equipment and environmental control.
Our company holds all the necessary government authorizations.
Beyond the regulatory aspects, we are on the lookout for new products, processes and equipment to identify opportunities to improve our environmental performance.
Recycling and recovery
To reduce our ecological footprint, we give priority to the recovery and refurbishment of recycled products and materials.
What’s more, CamPro® products come in recyclable packaging. We therefore invite you to recycle your packaging.
Energy management
Our industrial processes are energy-intensive. We are seizing every opportunity to implement strategies that will improve our energy balance.
Year after year, we invest in new, more energy-efficient equipment that delivers cost savings that benefit our customers.
We use only renewable energy for our production activities.
