Gaseous effluents are treated and then rejected to the atmosphere after being minimized to ensure no effect on neighborhood of the plant or complex.
Zero liquid effluent policy is strictly followed and each plant has its integrated liquid or water treatment unit to avoid any contamination of soil or water. All nutrients are recovered and reused in the plant or complex to also ensure the highest profitability of the project.

CFI Group designs its own air and water treatment systems in chemicals, fertilizers and explosives processes.

Teamwork

CFI Group trust in the culture of “Working together”. CFI Group believes that an open culture characterized by mutual respect, sharing of ideas and a commitment to common goals contributes to the overall productivity of the group. Our philosophy is that each team member plays an important role in the organization by providing individual expertise and a distinctive perspective to each project that they are involved in.
