The same attention to African forests is adopted by all the group’s industrial facilities in full compliance with the most stringent standards. Each stage of the process of initial conversion and transformation of the raw timber into higher-value products is conducted in accordance with precise rules. For example, only water-based dyes that do not contain heavy metals are used. All glues and adhesives have lower formaldehyde release levels than those established by European legislation. And naturally the greatest attention is devoted to health and safety in the workplace through the use of innovative dust extraction systems and systems for purifying the water used in dyeing processes. But that’s not all: even the smallest quantities of wood residue and processing waste are used to generate energy or are sent to other companies for the production of particle board.
