Iguá Saneamento

A company controlled by IG4 Capital, Iguá manages and operates water supply and sewage systems through concessions and public-private partnerships. One of the main companies in the sector in the country, it is present in 39 municipalities in six Brazilian states – Alagoas, Mato Grosso, Rio de Janeiro, Santa Catarina, São Paulo and Paraná – with 18 operations that benefit around 7.1 million people. Iguá has four essential pillars that guide socio-environmental actions in all its units, constituting the SERR strategic plan: Water security; Efficiency in the production and distribution of water; Responsibility for sewage collection and treatment; and Respect for people. A signatory to Rede Brasil of the Global Compact (an initiative of the United Nations), the company publicly assumed the commitment to zero carbon emissions by 2030. In 2021, it gained recognition for excellence in management and services with the National Quality Award in Sanitation (PNQS). In the same year, it was elected for the fifth consecutive year a great company to work for by the consultancy Great Place to Work (GPTW). It currently employs approximately 1,800 people. The name Iguá is a direct reference to the universe in which it operates: in Tupi-Guarani, “ig” means water.
