WE SUPPORT A NEW FORM OF DEVELOPMENT

Choosing organic means to undertake a journey towards sustainable development, with the aim of reducing the environmental impact of production, limiting the consumption of fossil fuel and avoiding the intensive use of land and water. The investments made in this sense testify to Rigoni di Asiago's commitment: the production facilities include a cogeneration plant, capable of generating simultaneously electricity and heat, reducing the fuel consumption by 50%. The entire production operates with low power consumption: all the energy used is from renewable sources (wind), and the water used is recirculated only after being treated and purified. A photovoltaic system has been installed at the Albaredo d'Adige plant. In addition, the Carbon Footprint study was carried out to measure the carbon footprint of the entire life cycle of 3 representative products, analysing supply of resources, processing and distribution, usage and end-of-life for each.
