CeramicSteel Mercosul's Community
Engagement Project

CeramicSteel Mercosul, a leading distributor of porcelain enameled steel products in Brazil, recently sponsored the construction of a bus stop to benefit a local community near Avenues School. This project emerged from a collaborative effort initiated by the school, inviting its primary suppliers to engage in a social responsibility initiative to improve the surrounding area.

Identifying the Need

The opportunity was first revealed during a meeting organized by Avenues School, where the school’s architecture office and representatives from various companies, including CeramicSteel Mercosul, discussed potential ways to support the nearby underprivileged community.

Through dialogue with community members, it became evident that a nearby bus stop, frequently used by schoolchildren, needed more shelter from the elements. This realization sparked the idea to construct a bus stop, ensuring children could wait comfortably and safely for their transport.

CeramicSteel Mercosul was committed to contributing to this project from the outset. Recognizing the importance of the initiative, the company actively participated in all meetings, offering porcelain enameled steel materials and technical expertise to ensure the construction of a functional and aesthetically pleasing bus stop.

"Participating in constructing the bus stop near Avenues School was an enriching experience for us at CeramicSteel Mercosul. We believe in the power of community engagement and saw this as a perfect opportunity to contribute to a meaningful cause. By providing a safe and comfortable waiting area for schoolchildren, we are proud to support the education journey of the young generation."

Outcome

The newly constructed bus stop provides much-needed shelter from the sun and rain, significantly improving the daily experience for children waiting for school buses. The community has well-received the project, demonstrating CeramicSteel Mercosul’s commitment to social responsibility and its capability to deliver high-quality solutions for public use.

The success of this initiative has not only enhanced its reputation but has also opened roads for future community projects. CeramicSteel Mercosul plans to continue its involvement in similar social responsibility efforts, leveraging its products and expertise to impact communities across Brazil positively.
