Our environmental policy
Throughout its operations, AB Dolomitas works to protect the environment and contribute to its preservation. Environmental protection is being tightened through EU directives and national requirements, where producers are encouraged to pursue sustainability and are increasingly obliged to manage the amount of waste generated, therefore, the goal is to use natural resources efficiently, reduce the impact of production on nature and the environment, and introduce modern, effective and eco-friendly technologies.
AB Dolomitas constantly monitors and evaluates its activities that may have an environmental impact. Control is among the main operating principles we apply to reach our environmental objectives.
Monitoring of emissions from pollution sources is conducted, along with monitoring of the impact on groundwater, according to a harmonized and approved monitoring program of the Environmental Protection Agency.

GE certificate
Dolomitas uses electricity generated from renewable energy sources (RES) in its operations, thus contributing to the sustainable development of energy, reducing environmental impact and actively participating in climate change mitigation. The company consistently strives to improve energy efficiency and to ensure that as much of its electricity use as possible comes from RES.
As early as 2009, the company built a wind power plant that produces more than 1.2 million kWh of green electricity per month on average. This represents almost a quarter of the total electricity consumed in the Pakruojis district, further reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainability. This commitment is confirmed by an official certificate, which proves once again that Dolomitas AB has a responsible approach to environmental protection and sustainable energy production.
Landscape Protection
AIn 2011, AB Dolomitas and the Landscape Management Centre of Kaunas University of Technology prepared a special plan “Special Landscape Management Plan for Recreational Use of Dolomite Mining Deposit Territory in Petrasiunai (Pakruojis District)”.
A part of this plan has been integrated into the Usage Plan, which uses the depths of the earth. Therefore, the future water body’s contours and relief are shaped purposefully during the dolomite mining process. The recreational complex of the landscape plan will be based on these components.
