Serving your future
Coping with change is a constant and complex challenge that we fight every day to ensure an ever better service to our customers. One of the epochal changes that our ethics require us to face, for ourselves and for the future of our young people, is that of ecology and respect for the environment in which we live.
Environmental responsibility is a principle that characterises our mission and our way of doing business.
This translates into a series of structural initiatives and investments that have, step by step, brought benefits in many ways. Constant reduction of Co2, reduction of greenhouse gases, reduction of energy needs company and attention to waste management generated.
In 2010 alone, all the necessary thermal energy was generated by two large boilers of 1200kw each, fuelled by fuel oil, with a disproportionate economic and environmental impact. In 2011, after the introduction of the Environment Project, the entire heating plant was rebuilt to all modern standards of energy efficiency and a single 1500kw heat generator, fuelled by methane gas, with a considerable reduction in costs and Co2 and greenhouse gas emissions. Energy requirements have been reduced thanks to investments to improve the facility's plant efficiency and heat loss. Like all sports facilities similar to ours, despite our efforts, we have not been able to shake off the stigma of “energy-intensive enterprise”. The desire to improve and pursue the goals of Project Environment has led the company to invest further and focus on renewable energy sources. In 2013, in fact, a heat exchange substation powered by district heating which allowed the methane gas heat generator to be completely decommissioned. Another step towards reducing harmful emissions. In 2016, a further investment by the company led to another drastic reduction in emissions. In fact, a cogenerator methane gas, which enabled the production of almost all the electricity needed by the company and one third of the thermal energy, The plant was classified by the GSE as a so-called CAR (high-efficiency cogeneration) that precisely because of its high efficiency and low environmental impact is rewarded through the issuance of so-called Energy Efficiency Certificates. White Certificates, in favour of the company.
An ever smaller footprint... an ever larger benefit.
The Carbon Footprint indicates the impact of human activities and the global effects of so-called greenhouse gases on the climate. The CF of products or services includes the absorption and emission of climate-altering gases over their entire life cycle: extraction of raw materials, processing, end use, recycling or disposal.
In just eight years, we have reduced greenhouse gas emissions by 31.1%.
Our role in the fight against climate change and the dissemination of good ecological practices also translates into the careful management of our company and the dissemination of an eco-sustainable culture between our human resources and our customers...
The value of a choice...
That is why, more than ever, we have a duty to make the benefits of our choice clear here and now... so that it can be an example to others working in the personal services sector and in particular in the sports sector... not only value, but Shared Value.
