30 years is not an anniversary every day and the ROVI Team could not miss this very special edition of the Descenso del Sella Adaptado. Organised by the Federation for People with Disabilities of the Principality of Asturias, the competition was attended by 142 paddlers, 56 of whom were people with disabilities.

The 11 ROVI volunteers were able to cover the 16 km of the descent in a double canoe with one of the members of the Fundación También. The event ran from the Canoeing School in Arriondas to the Feve bridge in Llovio (Ribadesella), with the last 5 km being of a sporting nature.

“The experience in this volunteering has been incredible. Participating in this edition has allowed me to meet great fighters and examples of self-improvement. Being able to paddle with my canoeing partner Celia is one of the most beautiful gifts I have taken with me, getting this award thanks to our efforts together”, says Sandra Sánchez-Contador, one of the volunteers of this edition, awarded with the 3rd place in the female category.

We’d like to share with you all the ROVI Team’s experience in a video.

ROVI has renewed its ‘Excellent’ rating in the Profarma 2021-2022 Programme for Promoting Competitiveness in the pharmaceutical industry, awarded by the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Tourism.

This programme classifies and rates companies in a series of groups and categories (Excellent, Very Good, Good and Acceptable) according to their excellence in different industrial, economic and research, development and innovation aspects.

The aim is to favour the competitiveness of the sector by boosting activities that provide greater added value, such as investment in new plants and new production technologies, promoting R&D&I.

ROVI receives the award for “Best Shareholder Service by a Listed Company” at Rankia’s 20th anniversary. The event was held at the Círculo de Bellas Artes in Madrid and recognised the most outstanding entities and personalities in the financial world.

The award was collected by Marta Campos Martínez and Beatriz de Zavala, head and member of the Investor Relations department, who congratulated the other winning companies and the Rankia management team for their 20 years working for financial communication.

The activity focuses on accompanying a person with disabilities (motor, visual…) along 15 km on a canoe trip down the Sella. For this reason, participants will be asked to have basic knowledge and experience in canoeing.

The final selection of volunteers will come from the hand of the foundation, according to the needs it has to accompany its members.

This past Sunday 11th June, our colleagues were able to visit the ROVI Forest with their families. Under the supervision of Retree monitors, they were able to carry out maintenance work in the forest, such as creating hotels for insects, planting fern seeds and watering the trees with hydrogel.

The ROVI Forest is a project to offset CO2 emissions that we have not been able to avoid or reduce in our productive work. In addition, thanks to the ROVI Forest, we are helping to reforest Robledillo de la Jara, promoting rural employment and reducing water consumption.

After this incredible experience, our colleagues wanted to share with us a video about the activity. Don’t miss it!

World Recycling Day is celebrated on May 17 with the aim of raising society’s awareness of the importance of treating waste properly, so as not to contribute to climate change and thus protect the environment.

ROVI, being aware that the generation of waste is an inherent element of the activity it carries out, reaffirms its commitment to minimize the negative impact on the environment through proper waste management.

Always through authorized waste managers, ROVI recycled 15% of the non-hazardous waste generated in 2022, 546 tons, which is equivalent to the waste generated by 1100 people annually1. The types of waste recycled are paper, cardboard and plastic trays and grids (polypropylene and polystyrene) from syringes and vials.

At the same time, responsible waste management guidelines are also promoted among employees, and their efforts contribute to the achievement of the Responsible Production and Consumption objective of the SDGs of the Global Plan, which ROVI is part of and implements within its production chain.

Laboratorios Farmacéuticos ROVI today presented its financial results for the first quarter of 2023.
