Sustainability, Environment, Health and Safety - Caroni Spa

The search for perfection while respecting the environment.

For Caroni, sustainability is an issue of paramount importance, a guiding parameter in the company’s strategy, with the aim of rethinking production processes and finding new, increasingly efficient and cutting-edge solutions.

Caroni is committed to reducing the impact of its production processes on the environment through an environmental management system that ensures compliance with legal and corporate sustainability requirements.
In particular, Caroni Spa is constantly committed to reducing emissions and decarbonising production processes.

Caroni Spa considers the protection and safeguarding of the environment to be of strategic importance in the design/realisation of the product and in the production process, as well as the health and safety of workers in the workplace, and has decided to operate in such a way that the systems, production processes, services, activities and behaviour do not have a significant impact on the environment or create potential/actual risks to the health and safety of workers. Caroni has organised its management system based on the knowledge of the context in which it operates, identifying the stakeholders relevant to its system and their needs and expectations (compliance obligations).

The UNI EN ISO 14001:2015 environmental certification certifies that the company’s management system complies with environmental regulations and is aimed at the continuous improvement of environmental performance (including the reduction of pollution). Caroni is committed to:

  • Compliance with environmental / health and safety regulations.
  • Ensuring product conformity with customer requirements / current legislation.
  • Preventing/reducing the environmental impact/climate change associated with its product/process and guarantees respect for the environment, people, flora and fauna with a view to sustainable development.
  • Continuous improvement of its performance.

 

Our commitment to the environment.

The environmental/health and safety management system adopted by Caroni is commensurate with the nature and extent of the risks identified and is aimed at the continuous improvement of environmental/health and safety performance and the control/reduction of risks to health and safety in the workplace, integrating the current quality management system in accordance with ISO TS 169 49.
