Ambipar Solutions: Innovation that Transforms and Cares
Integrated solutions that promote circularity, nature-based actions, accelerate the energy transition, and strengthen management, prevention, and response — contributing to a sustainable and resilient future.
As a Brazilian multinational, we provide environmental solutions adapted to each territory’s infrastructure and realities. Discover how we act with global scale and local impact:
Urban Mining
At Ambipar, we lead the urban mining process, offering innovative and sustainable solutions for reverse logistics and electronic waste recycling.
With the largest e-waste recycling plant in Latin America, located in São José dos Campos (SP), we transform end-of-life products into high-value raw materials, reducing environmental impact and promoting the circular economy.
Our Work Ensures:
Cutting-edge technology and full traceability
We invest in state-of-the-art technology to ensure complete traceability at every stage of the process, from collection to final treatment. We use advanced systems that guarantee compliance with environmental regulations and transparency in waste management.
Brand protection
and data securit
Ambipar understands how critical data protection is for companies. That’s why our process includes the complete destruction of data stored on electronic devices, through shredding into particles smaller than 8 mm—making any recovery or leakage of information impossible.
Own fleet and
specialized logistics
Our operations rely on a dedicated fleet, real-time tracking, and agile service, ensuring efficient and secure logistics for the collection and transportation of electronic waste.
Sustainability and
circular economy
We operate with a reduced carbon footprint, recovering strategic materials from electronic waste and reintegrating them into the production cycle. For example, each ton of recycled aluminum prevents up to 16 tons of CO₂ emissions, contributing significantly to a more sustainable planet.
Circular Cities
Ambipar is committed to ecological transformation, focusing on post-consumption urban challenges in Brazil.
Through our “Circular Cities” strategy, we guide municipalities in implementing selective collection and proper recycling, avoiding landfill disposal.
Recycling professionals are at the center of this circular economy strategy. By supporting cooperatives across the country, we deliver complete projects including restructuring of facilities, training of members, and monitoring of results — connecting productivity with social inclusion and environmental impact.
Ambiálcool
Ambiálcool is ethanol produced from sugar-rich food industry leftovers — such as candy, chocolate, and biscuits. Ambipar manages the entire production process in Nova Odessa (SP), starting with the collection of waste from partner brands like Mondelez and Bunge.
After careful sorting, the material undergoes fermentation and distillation, using technology that converts these residues into ethanol.
Part of Ambipar’s fleet in Nova Odessa is fueled with this product, which can also be used for general household cleaning.
Ambiálcool is one of several circular economy products that turn food waste into innovative fuel — and it won the 2025 Green Product Award in Berlin, Germany.
A pioneering solution that reduces emissions, adds value to waste, and powers the world with clean energy.
Nature-Based Solutions (NbS)
NbS are actions that protect, sustainably manage, and restore natural or modified ecosystems, addressing social, environmental, and economic challenges adaptively and effectively, while promoting human well-being and biodiversity.
At Ambipar, these solutions focus on conservation, reforestation, and forest restoration to generate carbon credits through mechanisms like REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation) and AR (Afforestation/Reforestation), while also enhancing biodiversity and supporting local communities.
How Ambipar applies NbS:
Conservation and Reforestation
We develop projects that protect standing forests while promoting reforestation to sequester carbon from the atmosphere and restore ecosystems.
Carbon Credit
Generation
We commercialize carbon credits generated by these projects in the voluntary market, helping companies reduce their emissions and achieve decarbonization goals.
Biodiversity
Protection
Ambipar’s NBS initiatives work to protect fauna and flora, reduce habitat loss, and restore degraded areas.
Socioeconomic Development
We invest in scientific research and the socioeconomic development of communities living in the areas where the projects are implemented, integrating sustainable development with conservation.
Project
Portfolio
Ambipar manages one of the largest private NbS portfolios in Brazil, with a special focus on projects in the Amazon that include the conservation of vast forest areas and the generation of carbon credits.
Glass
Circularity
Ambipar reinforces its sustainability commitment with the largest glass
recycling plant in Latin America.
Unlike aluminum, with near-100% recycling rates, glass recycling faces challenges in Brazil despite its infinite reuse potential.
Although it is a material that can be reused infinitely without losing its properties, glass is heavy, fragile, and requires care during handling and transportation. Reverse logistics is, therefore, the first challenge in this chain.
Integration with cooperatives and sorting hubs is limited, as many processing centers are geographically distant from the main sources of glass waste. And, to mention just one more of the obstacles involved in glass recycling, contamination from mixtures with organic matter, ceramics, and metals makes reuse unfeasible without additional cleaning and optical separation processes.
