This percentage, which may seem small at first glance, is actually a very good result considering the technical limitations related to the moulding of the product and the application of the non-stick coating, which require a high percentage of virgin steel. In line with our sustainability policy, our R&D work continues, in cooperation with our coating suppliers in order to increase the percentage of recycled steel in our products. 2022 Waste generated Waste not sent to landfill Waste sent to landfill Mixed steel 678.16 678.16 0 Paper & cardboard 37.94 37.94 0 Plastic 4.12 4.12 0 Toner 0.04 0.04 0 Wood 36.68 36.68 0 Miscellaneous 0.01 0.01 0 Hazardous waste 2.34 1.09 1.25 WASTE (t) This is why, over time, the cardboard slipcases used as the primary packaging of our products have mostly been replaced by labels, which use less paper, with no impact on the space allocated to product information and instructions for use. Secondary packaging has also been replaced with thinner but equally strong cardboard, switching from 'double wall' to 'microtriple' cardboard, helping to minimise the amount of space occupied during transport with the same performance (estimated savings of 40%). We are convinced that technological developments grow in line with cultural changes, so we are committed to improving the efficiency of production processes and increasing awareness of the “corporate culture” which combines the corporate values with the desire to deliver the desired environmental and societal change.
