ENVIRONMENT
The environment preservation is a basic point in the managerial philosophy of INTERNATIONAL
ENGINES SOUTH AMERICA LTDA.
It has been approved a program of actuation that includes activities as natural resources conservation,
elimination and residues recycling, water protection, noise reduction and acoustic isolation, air purity
conservation and contaminants residues elimination.
All these subjects constitute the mark of a wide environment protection program, which is considered
since the beginning of a new product project.
The International HS 2.8L engine was released in the market and accomplishes without problems all
these requirements.
The systematical accomplishment of this philosophy can be appreciated especially in the main aspects,
like disassembly easiness, less number of materials, usage of plastics of easy recycling.
It means, equally, that materials harmful to the environment are not used, like amianthus, cadmium and
hydro-carbide fluor-chlorined.
In the same field, gases and acoustics emissions reduction are considered, as well as the improvement
of the active and passive safety.
This environment protection program is not limited only to the production process, because it is extended
to the complete cycle of useful life of the engine, considering also its wear after a long operation period.
We have assumed a commitment with the planet we live in. A commitment that we take very seriously.
