Ausonia s.r.l., part of Ausonia Tanning Group, established as its objective the achieving of an excellence level on product’s performance and environment protection.
The decision of Ausonia s.r.l. fits in the group commitment policy to develop activities compatible with the environment through the adoption of an environmental management system.
It’s firm conviction of Ausonia S.r.l. that the adoption of this system, bringing significant contribution to the protection of the environment, constitutes an opportunity for improvement and growth of its production activities.
The project undertaken by implementing an environmental management system in Ausonia S.r.l. will complete the registration of all holdings of Ausonia group, constituting a cutting-edge modern example in Italian and international leather production.
The commitment of the group is demonstrated by ISO 9001 certification, as a guarantee of quality of products but also by the managerial capacity of the Group, investing in management systems.
Obtaining Emas is the culmination of a long journey (beyond the certification ISO14001: 04) made by other two tanneries of Ausonia group: Nebraska and Arizona.
Ausonia S.r.l. reached certification through the project “Imagine”, co-financed by the Community programme CIP Eco-Innovation and conducted in collaboration with Scuola Superiore di Studi Sant’Anna of Pisa University and the Tanners Association of S.Croce sull’Arno, whose objective is the diffusion of environmental certification tools and instruments of social responsibility into tanning district of Santa Croce sull’Arno, contributing to environmental protection and sustainability of the district territory.
Thanks to this project, the tannery district received the EMAS APO Certification on 12 April 2010.
This statement is therefore an Environmental starting point for developing a transparent collaborative relationship and willingness to act as active subject to a continuous environmental improvement.
