As a <strong>European pioneer</strong> in bio-ethanol, we do this either stand-alone or in cooperation with universities, other companies and projects on circularity.</p> <p class="wow fadeIn"><strong>Europe wants to reach climate-neutrality by 2050.</strong></p> <p class="wow fadeIn"><strong> Alco’s ambition is to reach this goal in 2030</strong>.</p> <p class="wow fadeIn">With headquarters in Brussels and operations on several continents, Alco is one of the biggest producers and distributors of ethanol for fuel in Europe. Globally we provide ethanol to various industries: from cosmetics to pharmaceuticals, biochemistry, food and beverage.</p> <p class="wow fadeIn">Consumers, farmers or horticulturists, many people on this planet use our high-quality<strong> products</strong> every day. Our products contribute to a more <strong>sustainable way of living</strong>. One example: less fossil fuel and less greenhouse gas emissions from transport. We produce bio-ethanol with 90% lower greenhouse gas emission than petrol. Our ethanol, when blended into petrol up to 10% is better known as E10. Millions of European car drivers now lower their footprint choosing E10.</p> <p class="wow fadeIn">Reducing fossil fuel. Capturing carbon. Providing agile solutions.</p> <p class="wow fadeIn"><strong>Alco.

Without firm commitments and clear solutions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we will not achieve the goals that we have set for ourselves and the generations to come (Paris Agreement on climate change and UN SDGs). Therefore, we use all our resources to develop sustainable solutions adding value to our final customers in the food, industrial or energy sectors.</p> <p class="wow fadeIn">For 30 years, we explored, developed and applied new methods and knowledge in our sector. This pioneering spirit is part of our identity and will continue to drive us in the next 30 years.</p> <h4>“Commitment is what transforms a promise into reality.”</h4> <p class="wow fadeIn">This quote from Abraham Lincoln resonates in us as we want to be a company that drives change. When we are confronted with challenges, we believe a committed spirit will lead us to solutions.</p> <h4 class="wow fadeIn">If you want to go far, go together.</h4> <p class="wow fadeIn">Going far is a big challenge! The strength of the group will make a difference. We, therefore, daily invest in our people and in every talent that crosses our path.</p> <h4 class="wow fadeIn">Not bound by convention.</h4> <p class="wow fadeIn">Pioneers need to have the courage and vision to think ahead and make steps aside. The passion drives us in a constant improvement of our performance, innovation and quest for new opportunities.</p> <h4 class="wow fadeIn">Respect is our starting point.</h4> <p class="wow fadeIn">“Respect” is the word that drives it all. From the environment to our people and future generations, respect is the basis on which we build our behaviour as a company.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section id="our-values" class="general_content mb-5 mt-0"> <div class="container p-0"> <div class="row m-0"> <div class="col-md-6 p-0 align-self-start order-lg-1 order-md-1 order-sm-2"> <div class="card"> <div class="card-body"> <h2 class="wow fadeIn">Our Values</h2> <p>Corporate values are fundamental for Alco. Their influence goes much beyond soft skills or human resources management: we consider them as an important part of our global strategy. Our values are not nice words on a screen or a piece of paper, but concrete and positive guidelines for our professional lives.</p> <h4>Team Spirit</h4> <p>We combine all our individual talents and characters to achieve our goals together</p> <h4>Respect</h4> <p>Our behaviour is based on the consideration, respect and acceptance of all people, whether they are our customers, suppliers or colleagues</p> <h4>Integrity</h4> <p>We stick to our commitments. We do what we say. We follow applicable laws and regulations and our code of conduct</p> <h4>Entrepreneurship</h4> <p>We make suggestions, we give input and we contribute to the development of our company</p> <h4>Passion</h4> <p>We are proud of our organization and strive to continue to improve our performance</p> <h4>Customer satisfaction</h4> <p>Each of us contributes to customer satisfaction in our daily work.
