FATRO places great importance on environmental protection, aware that respecting natural resources is both a duty toward future generations and an essential element in ensuring sustainable development. For this reason, the company promotes environmentally conscious industrial development at every stage - from research and development to the production of its pharmaceuticals.
ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION
FATRO has developed its own Environmental Management System that ensures compliance with current regulations and guarantees the continuous improvement of its environmental performance. In 2010, the system obtained ISO 14001 Environmental Certification.
COGENERATION PLANT
At its Ozzano Emilia (BO) facility, FATRO has installed a cogeneration plant that significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions (over 1,000 tons of CO2 per year) resulting from its energy needs.
PHOTOVOLTAIC PLANT
The photovoltaic systems installed at FATRO’s facilities generate an annual saving equivalent to over 100 tons of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
MINIMUM PLASTIC
The FATRO Group has launched a program to replace, wherever technically possible, the plastics used in its products and processes with more environmentally friendly materials.
RECYCLED OR CERTIFIED PAPER
FATRO Group’s commitment to the environment is also reflected in the “Paper Trees” project, which involves using recycled or certified paper for product packaging in order to minimize the impact on forest resources.
WATER SAVING
FATRO promotes the responsible use of water. To this end, it has installed groundwater level monitoring systems in its wells and implemented cooling water recovery systems, achieving a 30% reduction in water withdrawal from wells.
