Our logistics consists of many small territorial hubs, so that we do not have to make too many trips, trying to save annual CO2 emissions (there is, in this regard, an annual savings plan).
The subcontractors or suppliers are almost all part of our district: the sustainability of the furniture is not only in the materials, but also in the “zero km” that we can offer compared to others.<\/p>\n<\/ul>\n
In addition to the use of innovative materials, as explained above, and in addition to the ease of disassembly and therefore the recovery of raw materials, we have a special department “expo” which is responsible for recovering all components or entire furnishings that can be reused and reuse them or for short-term rentals or for donations to public benefit organizations, such as schools and hospitals or charities, such as non-profit associations.<\/p>\n
