Casalgrande Padana was one of the first companies in the industry to develop a profound awareness of the environment, striving to reconcile the protection of nature, health and safety with the maintenance and development of competitiveness on the market. This commitment is expressed in the development of operational strategies that have set the company at the forefront of research into new technologies, raw materials and processes to limit the effects of production on the environment and on man. This focused goal of sustainability, which is written in Casalgrande Padana's DNA, has been further accentuated in the last decade. The company drew up a specific action plan, implemented through the application of integrated and complete standards and regulations, which contemplate the causes of environmental impact and the measures necessary to prevent, or reduce it as far as possible. ISO 14001 certification and the EMAS Regulation are significant steps in this itinerary.
