Our sustainability targets

The sustainability targets set for the future represent one of the fundamental elements to make our “Becoming GREAT” sustainability strategy effectively operational.

 

The 2025-2027 Sustainability Plan

During 2024, following the appointment of the new Board of Directors, the new Business Plan 2025-2027 was drawn up.

The definition of new sustainability targets was carried out by taking into account factors that were both internal and external to the company. The internal ones included the strategic decision to identify sustainability as one of the Business Plan’s core drivers to which a substantial part of the overall investments was to be assigned; included in the external ones was the overall increase in focus that all the Company’s stakeholders placed on Sustainabilty issues.

We identified 30 new targets, which we intend to meet by the end of 2027. These targets are measurable and challenging, through which the continuous improvement process initiated in
2011 will continue.
