AN EFFICIENT STORE

As part of Zara's commitment to efficient store design, construction and management, the store has some of the most advanced energy-efficiency systems available.

The measures taken to reduce environmental impact include efficient heating and cooling systems, energy-saving LED lighting and the use of lower impact materials.

The store is connected to Inditex’s internal Inergy platform, which monitors the efficient consumption of the store's air conditioning and electricity installations to enhance their management, identify the most efficient systems, improve maintenance and help define strategies to reduce energy demand.

Zara works continuously to reduce the environmental impact of its teams' daily decision-making thanks to its holistic vision roadmap and milestones for the whole value chain. It also develops reuse and recycling programs to promote the circular economy and to reduce waste and the first-time consumption of raw materials.
