QUALITY
Carcano has set up a Quality Management System for each of its production units, Delebio and Mandello, which meets the requirements of the ISO 9001:2000 standard.


ENVIRONMENT AND SAFETY
Carcano has implemented a certified Environmental Management System in accordance with the ISO 14.001:2004 standard .
The Delebio site has been ISO 14001 certified since 1999 and Carcano was the first company in its sector to reach this objective.
The purpose of the Environmental Management System is to minimise the possible direct and indirect environmental impacts on which Carcano can exercise control, in compliance with applicable current regulations and requirements of this standard. The system is based on the identification of the environmental aspects resulting from an initial environmental assessment. The actual effectiveness of the EMS and its continuous improvement are measured through a series of records related to training, operating controls, monitoring and measurement activities and the results of internal and external audits.
















The commitment of Carcano Antonio S.p.A.'s General Management towards the environment is expressed in the Company Policy which, with a view of integrated development, also includes the requirements of the other company management systems.
In particular, Carcano has set up the following principles for achieving the pre-set objectives and goals:
  • Respect and protect the surrounding environment
  • Sustainable development of the company through the best available technologies
  • Compliance with statutory laws and regulations

This focus is aimed at

  • controlling and reducing emissions
  • enhancing energy cogeneration systems
  • producing hydroelectric energy
  • reducing the production of waste and secondary and tertiary packaging

From this standpoint Carcano has voluntarily promoted and become a founding member of the Italian Consortiums for the Management of CONAI packaging and recovery and recycling of CiAl aluminium packaging.
