We are delighted to report that Birchman Chile has been awarded the 2011 British Embassy/British-Chilean Chamber of Commerce prize for innovation on their plan for making Birchman Chile “Carbon Neutral” as from 2011.

Design of the plan and its implementation was led by Denisse Manosalva supported by Carolina Rojas, both Birchman consultants.

Birchman Chile won the only SME category prize; prizes in the large company categories were awarded to Anglo-American, Antofagasta Minerals, and Colbun (a large utility). 

The Award Ceremony was hosted by the British Ambassador with a breakfast meeting at his residence, a landmark building in Santiago and appropriate setting for the event.
The Environment Superintendent (Undersecretary of State) made a speech at the event, stressing the importance of this initiative.
