“Eco-innovation is key to progress, the meeting point between the needs of the industry and social policies in favor of a more efficient model in terms of costs and use of resources.”
The Sustainability and Environment team develops new knowledge, technologies and processes to improve relevant aspects related to the manufacturing of metallic parts, such as the management of industrial #waste, the #energy efficiency of manufacturing and transformation processes, the reduction of #emissions or the creation of safer and #healthier work-spaces..
