SUSTAINABILITY
Our Sustainability Path
Italcanditi has always paid great attention to the environment and the development of a sustainable business. Since 2019, this commitment has been reported annually with the publication of the Sustainability Report, which sets out in detail the priorities, objectives, choices made to achieve them and, last but not least, showing the results obtained.
In January 2020 Italcanditi joined the UNGC (United Nation Global Compact), committing itself to implementing the principles of universal sustainability in all its actions, choices and relationships.
A further important step was taken in 2022, the year in which Italcanditi formalized its Sustainability Policy, a document in which the key principles of the company are exposed in the perspective of a mentality, way of acting, which involves and unites all company functions in a synergic and constructive way.

We have energy for
a greener world
Since 2009, we have been promoting investments in environmental protection and sustainability policies. Over the years we have built a virtuous system to produce energy from renewable sources.
Since 2024, a third new photovoltaic system with a capacity of 300 kWp has been in operation, which has thus brought our total installed capacity to 720 kWp for a total occupied surface area of 4,100 m².
The biogas, recovered from water purification, powers a cogeneration plant with an electrical potential of 500 kW.
There are also two further plants: a cogeneration plant powered by rapeseed oil, with an electrical capacity of 1MW, and a 2MW natural gas trigeneration plant.
