Tessiltoschi and the Environment
Throughout the years Tessiltoschi has shown great attention to the environment resulting from a broad tradition on health awareness.
The option of a healthy work environment to help build a more friendly future with the nature, has led the company to make significant choices at a very high financial cost.
These include:
The purchase of machinery that includes better safety features higher than the limits imposed by regulations, and above all, safer for the workers' physical health.
The ban for the use of any kind of chemical solvents, thus using only water-based products during lamination process.
The installation of a very modern lamination plant which does not produce fumes or toxic residues.
The removal of amiantus from the roofs prior to the advent of legislation which facilitated its disposal.
Massive investment to produce clean energy through a photovoltaic system. In 2008, the first pilot plant of 20 KW (to 28-7-2010 avoided CO2 emission in the atmosphere of 29,49 tonnes) link and at this time, the second plant of 350 KW which is operational starting 1-1-2011 and which will allow a reduction of CO2 emission or 350 tonnes yearly.
In regards to the daily office procedures, the use of paper has been replaced mainly by electronic computerised systems. The documents are handled and stored in electronic files and most data flows with the outside world are transmitted through computerized systems.
