ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

eco design lifecycle icon

Brianza Plastica in 2020 introduced the UNI EN ISO 14006 guidelines on eco design, intended to point maximum attention to not only to the impact of its production processes on the environment, but above all, on the extreme importance of analysing the entire life cycle of its products, from design to end-of-life management.

eco friendly production icon

Brianza Plastica has always stood out for its focus on safety, the environment and people, operating in full compliance with the current laws on environmental hygiene. With this in mind, the Company has equipped its production sites with powerful suction systems that purify the internal environmental by conveying the solvents, generated during the production process, to highly advanced abatement systems.

eco waste value sustainability

In 2020, the Company entered into a partnership with a major waste management facility aimed at “ennobling” the end-of-life of its waste and production residues in fibreglass. Thanks to this collaboration, almost all of the waste coming from the production processes is now destined for use in cement and steelworks in the form of RDF (refuse derived fuel).
