Sustainable manufacturing
Our Commitment

Responsible Sourcing Standard

We only partner with manufacturers who meet our strict environmental criteria.

The Green Gate Policy

Our Environmental Commitment

At Aestiva Surfaces, sustainability isn't a marketing claim—it's a core business principle. Every manufacturing partner must pass through our "Green Gate" evaluation before joining our network.

We are mindful of the environmental footprint of engineered stone. Our select partners actively minimize impact through water recycling, renewable energy, and responsible sourcing—combining exceptional quality with conscious stewardship.

Factory Requirements

Our Sustainability Pillars

Water Conservation

Our partners must utilize 100% water recycling systems in their polishing lines. Zero process water is discharged to the environment.

Clean Energy

Preference is given to facilities powering their kilns with renewable energy sources. We target 50% renewable energy by 2027.

Recycled Materials

We require a minimum of 20% recycled glass or mirror content in our Eco-Series slabs, with select colors reaching 40%.
