In the energy sources
PHOTOVOLTAIC PARK
In 2005, we have achieved near the plant a photovoltaic system on the ground, which helps to satisfy for about 25% the energy requirements by the production lines.
Kwh produced:
| KwH | 2019 | Grand Total |
| Photovoltaic park – Factory | 279.148 | 2.480.583 |
| Roof – Offices | 19.324 | 157.030 |
| Total | 300.491 | 2.637.613 |
HEAT PUMP
The heating and cooling system for the offices works with geothermal energy and heat pumps.
In the production process
THE EMISSION CONTROL
Atmospheric emissions of pollutants production are part of the treatment and abatement plants wich are regularly reported to the competent authority and subject to regular inspection, so that the emission of pollutants is kept well within the legal limit. Each emission point is authorized and is constantly monitored.
COLLECTION AND WATER TREATMENT
Industrial liquid waste: the industrial liquid waste are all collected in special containers and then suitably stored for subsequent disposal by specialized companies in authorized treatment facilities, in compliance with current legislation.
Rainwater: the site have a ” white” drainage systems for the collection and disposal of rainwater from waterproof surfaces:
- from coverings and roofs in gender;
- from yards and parking.
The network flows in a suitable plant for the collection, processing and analysis of the waters, before being delivered in tanks for subsequent release into surface water bodies. All this following a regular discharge authorization issued by the competent managing institutions.
in the formulations
FORMULATION SOLVENT FREE & FORMULATIONS SC
The formulations based on toxic solvents were reduced in the years and replaced with products based on vegetable solvents. SC formulations have been stimulated compared to powder products, to better protect the user from exposure during use.
In the packaging
FLEXIBLE PACKAGING
The CHIMIBERG packaging ecofriendly Cubiflex, reduces by ‘80% the use of plastic to be disposed of and by 90% the volume of space, compared to traditional packaging.
in the working environment
OFFICES
The construction and architectural choices answer to the needs of efficiency and energy saving: the layout of the building, the organization of space and the treatment of the facades- windows were designed in such a way to make the work environment enlightened naturally as much as possible and irradiated in winter and shaded in summer. While photovoltaic panels installed on the roof help to meet the energy needs of the offices.
