Eco-Sustainability

BRING NATURE BACK TO LIFE WITH

A 100% SUSTAINABLE SHOWER

In addition to being considered a trend and a moral and collective duty, embracing the green philosophy can also be a cultural commitment these days. Vismaravetro was one of the first companies to make this commitment, producing shower enclosures which meet sustainability standards. This objective was achieved by experimenting with solutions to optimise production processes and simplify distribution and sales systems. In all this, the concept of “eco-sustainability” constituted a meeting point between the various objectives of environmental sustainability, which bring together those of mankind and those of our surrounding environment.

THE PRODUCTION PROCESS

A SUSTAINABLE OPTIMIZATION

The management of the complexity inherent to the concept of sustainability translates - in every operational phase - in the ability to engineer each project by utilizing resources in the most correct way possible. This way, the environmental impact can be minimised in order to accommodate the needs of a rapidly changing global society. This is a long and articulated process, involving every single step of the production process: from the use of resources to the reduction of emissions into the atmosphere, from waste management to optimization in the water cycle (now re-used 99% in the production process).

Vismaravetro’s vision keeps the material firmly at its base: starting with the glass used for the panels, followed by the aluminium of the structures and thus with the various options concerning details and finishes. All the choices involve widely recoverable and renewable raw materials, which are suited to being re-used time and time again. Virtuous practices and models have enabled the process of ecological transition to be accelerated and, involving all stakeholders in the production, distribution and sales cycle, to translate into a real growth horizon. The various company system certifications are thus recognition for Vismaravetro of the responsibility and reliability of those who have been able to interpret the circularity of the raw materials and the sustainability of the processes as the true substance of their business.

glass and aluminium

100% green design

Vismaravetro shower enclosures belong by default to the “environmental” category. The primary materials are glass and aluminium, which are both 100% recyclable and can last forever thanks to modern recovery and recycling systems. Industrial production has also begun focusing on environmental topics and special emphasis is always placed on this highly relevant topic during each new project.
This is how terms like “green design” and “eco design” assume significance: through projects and ideas that, in addition to fulfilling functional and aesthetic expectations, are able to respond with a broader and more aware perspective. And when the company engineers a project it takes into consideration the correct use of materials, technology and processing techniques…thus contributing to eco-sustainability.
A precise commitment of Vismaravetro, acknowledged by a third party institution. On 13 February 2004 we obtained the certification of compliance with standard ISO 14001, which certifies that Vismaravetro's “corporate system” operates in compliance with the laws that protect the environment. From production processes to the materials used, from emissions into the atmosphere to corporate buildings, from wastewater to waste management, everything is carefully organised in our company to minimise the environmental impact.

A CORPORATE COMMITMENT
Vismaravetro has had the ISO 14001 certification since 2004, which certifies that the “corporate system” operates in compliance with the laws that protect the environment.

EPD Certification

Eco-friendly shower enclosures

The EPD is a voluntary certified declaration, which provides specific data on the environmental impact of the product, in accordance with the international standard ISO 14025 and EN 15804. Vismaravetro has always had a "green" focus on its production. Starting from the materials used, glass and aluminum, which by their nature are entirely recyclable thanks to modern recovery and recycling systems. Over the years, Vismaravetro's attention has also been directed towards a simplification and efficiency of production standards. In fact, when the company engineers a project, it considers the correct use of materials, technologies and processes to make its own contribution in the direction of eco-sustainability. In the company, everything is carefully organized to minimize the impact on the environment: from the production processes to the materials used, from emissions into the atmosphere to company building structures, from water discharges to waste management.
