Environmental protection programme
The Roberto Corpina Company, with registered office in Torrenova (ME), is active in the field of tailoring. It has adopted an Environmental Protection Policy in the awareness that future generations are entitled to live in a pristine environment and that all people are entitled to work in a Safe environment.
The excellent relations existing between the company, supervisory bodies, the local community and other surrounding manufacturers testify to all this.
Management and the entire company staff are convinced that environmental protection should be a reality that goes hand in hand with the company’s productivity and have developed the awareness that the implementation of an Environmental Management System is essential in view of the continual improvement of environmental performance that has always distinguished the Roberto Corpina Company.
The Company also shares the idea that Environmental and Safety Protection of both its workers and the local community are two integrated and inseparable concepts.
The fundamental principles that, in addition to compliance with statutory requirements, guide the Company’s behaviour in environmental matters and on which customers can always rely are set out below:
– The Roberto Corpina Company undertakes to design, develop and manage production activities, from a perspective of risk minimisation, prevention, and reduction of potential adverse effects for operators, the local community, the environment and customers.
