SUSTAINABLE HEADQUARTERS AND RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES
The company, at its headquarters in Civitanova Marche, is powered for almost all of its energy needs by a photovoltaic system with a power of 379 kW, installed on the roof of its warehouses.
The offices can count on a cooling and heating system that exploits the principles of thermodynamics called “cold beams”, a plant with low environmental impact and high level of comfort for employees
“Energy-saver” electrical system: the electrical system, renewed in 2020, is configured with movement sensors and low-consumption lighting bodies that allow energy savings for up to 60% compared to traditional consumption.
The company is equipped with cutting-edge machinery for the automatic packaging of leathers and pallets. The result is lower use of plastic in packaging and greater protection of the physical integrity of the warehouse workers.
Research and development of “green” products
The company selects its subcontractors and raw material suppliers with careful auditing aimed not only at the quality of the materials but also at compliance with the environmental and safety standards of the manufacturing processes.
As evidence of a continuous search for new frontiers of sustainability, the company offers its customers a wide range of ecological chrome-free, metal-free and vegetable tanned leathers.
Every single skin is traced upstream of the production chain through an integrated information system installed by the premises of our subcontractors and suppliers.
