100,000 kg of virgin wood saved in 15 years

  By ,

Since 2010 the use of only recycled wood pallets

Fifteen years ago, Euro Stampaggi chose to use only fully recycled wooden pallets for goods handling. Thanks to this focus, some 100,000 kilograms of virgin wood have been saved since then; more than 6,600 kilograms are avoided each year.

In 2010, not many companies were taking such decisive steps in the direction of environmental protection. “Every journey, even the longest, begins with a step’… with the words of the philosopher Lao Tzu, Euro Stampaggi director Giovanni Manselli, comments on the choices of that time: ‘Ė a thought that gives an idea of how the commitment of every day constitutes one of the first steps of the company towards sustainability and the reduction of its environmental footprint’.

In fact, further steps have been taken in a journey that is still long, but must not be interrupted; for example, the use of certified recycled paper, the purchase of full electric company cars and the increase in self-generation of electricity through photovoltaics.

There are some important changes in the Euro Stampaggi Clean Team: the Head of the internal area changes (Enrico Magherini replaces Andrea Bencini) and Flavia Modica joins. We welcome both newcomers and wish them all the best in their work within this team, which is doing an excellent job in terms of safety, order and cleanliness, which are the foundations of Quality.

The Clean Team has already been operating within the company for many years and has actively contributed to forming a true consciousness related to the wellbeing of workers and the decorum of working environments.

CO2 target achieved

A long journey started by our company back in 2008

We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children. Whether the phrase was written by Chief Seattle of the Duwamish and Squamish American Indian tribes or rather by screenwriter Ted Perry does not really matter; what one can no longer do today is ignore it.

In the full awareness of this reality, the Co2 zeroing project implemented by Euro Stampaggi is part of it. By using methane gas for its production processes, Euro Stampaggi has committed to zeroing the Co2 produced by this fuel, adhering to a project that financed the construction of a dam in India, thus enabling it to have 1142 ‘Verified Carbon Units’, which correspond to 1142 tonnes of Co2 equivalent, equal to those produced by our company in the year 2022. This is a further step in the direction of sustainability, a path that Euro Stampaggi undertook in 2008 with the construction of the first photovoltaic plant, which will soon be expanded to further increase the percentage of green energy used.
