Safety Day: Reinforcing Our Commitment to Life

Enaex Brazil held the first edition of Safety Day, a global initiative dedicated to strengthening our commitment to Safety and to our most important value: life.

 

Broadcast globally, the event brought employees together to reflect on prevention, care, and shared responsibility. Complacency, Sense of Belonging, Operational Discipline, and the Right to Stop Work* were among the key topics discussed, reinforcing the importance of staying alert, meeting standards, speaking up, and stopping work in the face of unsafe situations.

 

At Headquarters, the event featured interactive stations from different areas, showcasing their activities and demonstrating how Safety is embedded in each team’s daily routine. Participants recorded their commitment to life and, through the Espírito Enaex platform, recognized those who made a difference in this area.

 

Starting with this edition, CEO Juan Andrés Errázuriz announced that August 12 will be Enaex Safety Day worldwide, a date to renew our global commitment to life every year.

Campanario Plant Achieves a New Historic Production Record

In July 2026, the Campanario plant (Iglesia Department, San Juan) achieved another transformative leap: productivity rose from 110 kg/min to 200 kg/min, reaching up to 102,000 kg per day and a total of 1,066 metric tons for the month — the highest production on record since Enaex Argentina’s operations began.

 

This achievement is the result of technological and process planning. The company invested in state-of-the-art pumping equipment (fuel and oxidizer solution pumps), which improved operational performance and allows this pace to be sustained safely and sustainably over time.

 

All of this was achieved without increasing headcount or adding extra shifts, thanks to clear leadership, updated processes, and the commitment of the entire team, always within a framework of safe operations.
