People at Aura Verde LDA

Aura Verde has a clear commitment to building a business where environmental responsibility, social values and commercial performance reinforce one another. Aura Verde operates at the intersection of cleantech and the circular economy, delivering bio-based oil absorbents and sustainable growing media that replace synthetic, polluting materials with natural, biodegradable solutions. Aura Verde’s work supports climate action by reducing reliance on fossil-based products and enabling safer, cleaner spill management. Through its bio oil absorbents, the company helps industries minimize environmental damage while moving toward more responsible operations. This practical, results-driven approach aligns with the SME Race to Zero initiative, showing how small and medium enterprises can meaningfully reduce emissions and support the transition to a low-carbon economy. Aligned with the principles of the UN Global Compact, Aura Verde integrates respect for human rights, environmental protection, ethical business conduct and transparency into its operations and partnerships.

Aura Verde also promotes inclusive and equitable business practices in line with the Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs). The company values fairness, opportunity and collaboration across its value chain, recognizing that diverse participation strengthens innovation and resilience. What truly sets Aura Verde apart is its belief that sustainability must be practical, scalable and measurable.
