OUR COMMITMENT TO NATURE AND THE LAND
Caring for the environment is one of our priorities. So, to mark our 50 years in business, we have launched the project, “More Nature, More Quality”, adopting an approach that is increasingly mindful of sustainability and of reducing the carbon footprint of our processes and products.
WE ARE THE FIRST ITALIAN COMPANY TO COMMIT TO THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRIAL BREAD.
We have joined the “Environmental Footprint Assessment Programme”, promoted by the MINISTRY OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE PROTECTION OF LAND AND SEA, enabling us to study the carbon footprint of our most iconic products, so that their environmental impact can be measured and reduced.
A CERTIFIED AND TRANSPARENT APPROACH
Our commitment to reducing the environmental impact is based on a solid, scientific approach, structured on three key words:
- Measuring: evaluating potential environmental impacts using Life Cycle Assessment methodology.
- Improving: developing new strategies to reduce specific environmental impacts, ranging, for example, from energy-saving to the selection of suppliers who meet our values.
- Offsetting: complying with environmental offsetting measures, in particular in relation to greenhouse gas emissions.
To ensure that this rigorous pathway is followed, we have formed a partnership with SPINLIFE, a spinoff of the University of Padua.
WHAT IS MEANT BY
CARBON FOOTPRINT
A Carbon Footprint is a measure of the amount of greenhouse gas emissions generated through the life cycle of a product or service—from the extraction of the raw materials, through to production, packaging and distribution, to the eventual disposal of the packaging.
