FATRO S.p.A. has adopted the following Environmental Policy
FATRO S.p.A. believes that safeguarding the environment is of paramount importance and is committed to carrying out its activities in accordance with the principles of Sustainable Development.
In furtherance of these aims, the company has decided to adopt and implement its own internal Environmental Management System (EMS), in compliance with the Standard UNI EN ISO 14001:2015.
Consequently, FATRO S.p.A. is committed to respecting the principles of its internal Environmental Management System both when manufacturing and marketing its products. The System is implemented in every part of the production area of the facility located at via Emilia 285, 0zzano Emilia (BO) (including the warehouse located in via Tolara di Sotto), and every part of the production facility located at via Molino Emili 2, Maclodio (BS).
The fundamental aims of the correct implementation of the Environmental Management System are to:
- Define the context and the parties affected by the Environmental Management System;
- Commit to safeguarding the Environment and preventing pollution;
- Improve the Company's environmental performance continuously, including in relation to the life cycle of the product;
- Commit to optimising the Company's environmental impact;
- Collect feedback from the affected parties pursuant to the Environmental Management System;
- Respect the applicable legislation, the principal regulations applicable in the sector and the stated objectives;
- Ensure all internal personnel, all the companies that collaborate with FATRO S.p.A. and any other third parties that may be affected, are informed of the Company's commitment to the principles of Sustainable Development and the fundamental principles underlying the development of its Environmental Management System, with the purpose of promoting environmental culture and awareness.
To this end, and in line with its activities, FATRO S.p.A. undertakes to:
- Guarantee efficient management of natural resources;
- Optimise its consumption of energy resources;
- Raise awareness of the principal points of its Environmental Management System among its own employees and any external parties that collaborate with FATRO S.p.A.;
- Encourage all its personnel employed at the two production sites to become actively involved in environmental issues.
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.
Since 1995, FATRO has adhered to the voluntary Responsible Care program, which aims to promote sustainable development through the continuous improvement of performance in the areas of safety, health, and the environment.
This involves a commitment to reducing risks, emissions, waste, and energy consumption, as well as managing products responsibly throughout their entire life cycle.
FATRO has installed a cogeneration plant at its Ozzano Emilia (BO) facility, significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions from its energy needs.
