CREATING A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
The integration of sustainability in our commercial and production activities allows us to promote operational efficiency, provide the best solutions for customers and support communities.
ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
UNI EN ISO 14001: 2015 Certification
Is a voluntary international standard for designing and implementing an environmental management system. Taking care of the planet and preventing our societies from causing negative impacts on nature and the landscape are two of the most important challenges for today’s businesses. This integrated system is made up of policies, processes, plans and practices that define the rules that guide the company’s interaction with the environment.
Charter of Principles for Environmental Sustainability
The Charter of Principles promoted by Confindustria joins, on a voluntary basis, the companies and organizations of associated companies which, with this initiative, intend to highlight the positive and virtuous part of the Italian industrial world in terms of environmental sustainability and stimulating less dynamic companies to start a virtuous path.
The Areas of our Commitment
RESPONSIBLE ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION
- By recovering thermal energy originating from the chemical production processes, an amount of electricity exceeding the needs of our production center is generated without CO2 emissions.
- Installation of inverters on our machinery in order to optimize energy consumption based on actual needs.
EMISSION REDUCTION
- SO2 emissions in relation to the production needs of our plants have drastically decreased in recent years and have come to be far below the limits prescribed by the AIA.
SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS
- Enartis invests € 2M annually in research, development and innovation in order to develop processes, products and services with an ever lower environmental impact. Zenith represents the last great achievement in terms of sustainability, guaranteeing a 90% reduction in CO2 emissions and 80% of energy and drinking water during the wine stabilization process.
PROTECTION OF WATER RESOURCES
- Reduction of the consumption of process water from deep aquifers, more valuable water, in favor of the use of water taken from surface stratums, of less value.
- Treatment of wastewater which is controlled directly by our laboratory, purified and released into surface water.
WASTE REDUCTION AND RECYCLING POLICY
- Gradual reduction of current polylaminate plastics used for packaging with fully recyclable mono- materials.
- Over the years, a policy has been implemented to reduce hazardous and non-hazardous waste, leading to a 30% recovery and significant savings on disposal costs.
- Plastic cups and coffee scoops have been replaced by biodegradable versions and plastic bottles have been completely replaced by dispensers.
- The gradual replacement of old office furniture with eco-sustainable furniture and furnishings has recently started.
- The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), an organization that promotes environmentally friendly forest management worldwide, is a guarantee of a sustainable and transparent supply chain. Their logo shown on Enartis packaging is an added value to our business and our products.
SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY
Responsible Care is a voluntary program for the promotion of sustainable development of the global chemical industry in order to protect the environment, health and safety in the workplace. The signatory companies agree to enhance their activities in order to protect the environment, guarantee safety, protect health, better manage logistics and production and share company best practices.
BS OHSAS 18001: 2007 Certification is a voluntary international standard for designing and implementing a workplace health and safety management system that allows an organization to control its risks and improve its performance in the field of health and safety.
MOG 231 and Code of Ethics constitute a further valid tool for raising awareness of all employees and collaborators in order to follow correct and transparent behavior in line with ethical and social values.
The Areas of our Commitment
HEALTH AND SAFETY PROMOTION
- The company adheres to the Workplace Health Promotion program, for companies that are committed to implementing interventions of proven effectiveness in the field of health promotion such as proper nutrition and the promotion of physical activity.
- Awareness and training initiatives are promoted every year, in order to involve the organization in the implementation of its environmental policy and in compliance with safety equipment.
Our efforts to protect health, safety and the environment don’t end there. We work every day to find new solutions to support the enhancement of people and nature, a primary asset to be protected and passed on to future generations.
