UN Sustainable Development Goals Partnership
Essex Furukawa has aligned its sustainability efforts through its parent company, Superior Essex, with those of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, committing to 12 out of the 17 UN SDG’s. This partnership will enable our organization to identify common purposes and opportunities for action with other entities, while collaborating to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all.
Torreón Reduces Resource Impact
According to a report from the United Nations, water shortages will affect 2.7 billion people by 2025, which means 1 out of every 3 people in the world will be affected by this problem. It is substantially worse in Torreón and other parts of Mexico.
Our plant in Mexico has been able to demonstrate a reduced water usage by around 150 cubic meters per day (39,625 gallons per day) since the implementation of its grey water initiative.

UN Sustainable Development Goals
We are aligning our sustainability efforts with those of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDG’s). This alignment will enable our organization to identify common purposes and opportunities for action with other entities, while collaborating to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all. Theses SDG’s are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - in a global partnership. They recognize that ending poverty and other deprivations must go hand-in-hand with strategies that improve health and education, reduce inequality, and spur economic growth – all while tackling climate change and working to preserve our oceans and forests. We have set forth to align with 12 out of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.
