Salto Systems has achieved carbon neutrality thanks to its participation in two innovative projects with a triple-transformative effect on the economy, society and nature to achieve Salto´s goal: for its operations to have zero impact on the climate. In total, the 1,721 tons of CO2 generated in 2020 were offset in 2021 through two projects: River Chinchiná Forestry Project, Colombia (Fundación Ecodes and CeroCO2): Reforestation and protection of hydrographic basins in the Andes, and Apadrina un Olivo (Sponsor an Olive Tree) in Teruel, Spain, which fights to recover olive groves, as well as against depopulation and the abandonment of olive groves in Spain.

The environmental policies implemented by Salto reduce the environmental impact of its operations. 100% of the electricity used in the factory is sustainable and comes from renewable sources. 25% of the electrical energy comes from the sun.

SALTO has installed 640 solar panels in its factory, the first large-scale solar power installation in its global network.
