p publishes the fifth edition of the Sustainable Development Report.
This publication represents an important tool for dialogue with our stakeholders, through which the Group reports the results of its efforts, the projects developed, the improvement programmes and the objectives for the future, in the economic, environmental and social spheres.
With the 2015 Report we conclude our first Sustainability Programme and present the new Programme 2016-2020. Into the Report you will find the 2011-2015 Programme results, quite positive both in terms of reaching our objectives, but also for our “Best Practices” which we had resolved to implement and for the promotion of our internal sustainability culture.
However, in this report we want to mainly talk about the future with special emphasis on the actions of the entire Group.The internationalisation process of the sustainability polices had already started in 2014 with two strategically important shared objectives on a global level:
• Calculation of carbon footprint, according to GHG Protocol, of all Guala Closures Plants (Scope I-II 2014-2015, certified by Bureau Veritas)
• Implementation of new monthly KPIs (environmental and social, energy consumption, waste production, water drawing, accidents and welfare)
More than a performance tool, for Guala Closures sustainability is an act of accountability towards the environment and the society in which we operate, a fundamental value which we believe is a must for any leading organisation and which is the foundation of our growth strategy.
