We are FSC certified: what does it mean?
The Forest Stewardship Council (or FSC for short) is an international non-profit NGO, which has created an internationally recognized forest certification system.
The certification has as its purpose the correct forest management and the traceability of derived products. In practice, it guarantees that the raw material used to make a product in wood, paper or cardboard comes from forests where strict environmental, social and economic standards are respected.
The forest of origin has been independently controlled and assessed in accordance with these standards (principles and criteria of good forest management), established and approved by the Forest Stewardship Council® a.c., through the participation and consent of the interested parties.
FSC includes among its members NGOs and environmental groups (WWF, Greenpeace), social groups (National Aboriginal Forestry Association of Canada), forest owners, industries that trade and process wood and paper (Tetra Pak, Mondi), large-scale distribution groups Organized, researchers and technicians, for a total of nearly 900 members.
Our company vehicles use HVO fuel
HVO, or ‘Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil’, is an advanced biofuel made from renewable raw materials, such as vegetable oils and animal fats. Through a hydroprocessing technique, HVO is transformed into a fuel with chemical properties similar to diesel, but with a reduced environmental impact. Using HVO fuel can reduce CO2 emissions and pollutants by up to 90% compared to traditional diesel.
