People and the Environment

Human resources, and the professionalism and passion our employees show in their work, has always occupied a central space in our organisation.

For this reason, since the sixties, we have been providing subsidised rent housing for our employees.

And because of this, we wanted to celebrate the first fifty years of our business with an original and real gesture - the construction of a company nursery school for the children of our employees. The structure consists of a range of spaces and forms designed with children in mind, through the application of a type of relational architecture. This approach prioritises spaces created for welcoming, well-being and life, with a view to generating a positive context which favourises the joy of learning, individual growth, cultural stimuli and social development.

We regularly offer targeted training programs for employees, to allow them to acquire the expertise and specialist knowledge that make the difference to our business.

Finally, we strive to demonstrate our care and attention with regard to our people by providing assistance to those who find themselves in situations of need. Since 2012, we have been sponsors of the non-profit organisation Food Bank Foundation (FBAO - Fondazione Banco Alimentare Onlus. For more information, visit www.bancoalimentare.it).

The company's quality management system has been established for decades and makes use of certifications for quality, health and safety and the environment, in accordance with standards UNE-EN ISO 9001, OHSAS 18001 and UNI-EN 14001.

The environmental management and health and safety at work system has long been an integral part of the overall management of the company: we believe in prevention, and invest in such a way that increasingly restrictive laws cease to be constraints and are transformed into opportunities.

It is for this precise reason that we have chosen to voluntarily adopt a health and safety at work environmental management system which complies with ISO 14001:2004 and OHSAS 18001:2007. This system incorporates health and safety policies and objectives with those relating to quality and, more generally, to design and production.

The integration of systems to manage quality , environment and safety across our three manufacturing sites has the following general objectives:

• to ensure that operational practices are consistent with company policy, centred on respect for quality, people and the environment, and are also in line with business strategies designed to promote sustainable well-being and guide market choices toward ecological engineering solutions for the home;
• to improve the company structure, in order to make it more efficient and effective;
• to minimise risks arising from any failure to comply with regulations, from environmental impacts and from accidents, prioritising prevention;
• to increase customer satisfaction and to improve our relationships with the public and with regulatory bodies, as a guarantee of our dedication to environmentally-friendly manufacture, reduced consumption and emissions and an improved working environment.
